Ok so I did finally snap with Verizon and headed straight over to my nearest AT&T store to get a nice shiny new blackberry. I decided to get the Curve primarily for the larger screen and although sure-type is really great on phones like the Pearl I find myself typing faster on the full keyboard.

The phone is extremely light to hold and has a great smooth surface. The screen is clear and reception is great. I’m not sure if it is the phone or just the GPRS network but my call quality is amazing compared to my previous provider. Life is to short to be stuck with yesterday’s technology! :) I installed google maps and have used that a ton already, it can even follow your position as you drive ;-)
