Have you been pondering whether to purchase a BlackBerry 8900 or T-Mobile? Every review I’ve read says the lack of faster 3G data (the 8900 is EDGE only) is a deal killer. Nobody wants the pokey stuff now the blazing 3G speeds are available for abou...

After its last release, the buggy BlackBerry Storm 9530, RIMs got its groove back. The new BlackBerry Curve 8900 juices up the already-excellent Curve form factor with a sharper screen, faster processor, and better camera, letting it jump through n...

Even though it doesn’t support 3G data, the latest Curve’s fast processor, sleek design, and Wi-Fi capability make it one of the best smart phones around.
