I just saw in my moms ebay account that she copped me one for my birthday. I really like the phone when i saw it at the AT&T store. But i want to know fromthe people that own one, how good is it really?? I just got rid of my sidekick and got me a Treo 650 and didnt like it much so now im gettin the Curve. How isthe AIM feature and text feature on this phone, and is the internet any good? and is it easy to put your own ringtone in the phone?

The wild and crazy guys (really, should meet them and youd understand what I mean) over at CrackBerry.com have obtained a copy of the BlackBerry OS 4.3.1 beta for the BlackBerry Curve and BlackBerry Pearl devices. If you havent heard about OS 4.3.1, then you will be in for quite a surprise with just whats being added. While well still have the naysayers who want to bash RIM and BlackBerry for its lack of novel and practical functionality found in the other all-in-one-even-gives-you-a-reach-around devices, this particular device OS upgrade will be very powerful once released.

From my own personal experience with OS 4.3.1 for the Curve 8300 and 8310 devices, an earlier version than what is being shown on CrackBerry.com, I did not have the video recording functionality. Upon that observation about a month ago, I jokingly stated to someone I was showing, "Yeah, it didnt unlock the video recorder, darn it!" Well, if what were seeing is the truth, video recording was apparently enabled a few revisions later. Also added to this version is DataVizs Documents To Go Office Suite, a very popular Palm application that has had us patiently awaiting its arrival on the BlackBerry since DataVizs official announcement nearly six months ago at the Wireless Enterprise Symposium in Orlando. Full OS 4.3.1 feature list, after the jump!

Feature List of OS 4.3.1:

* Upgraded, enriched e-mail formatting (in laymans terms, HTML email support with an asterisk)
* Face-lifted address book and contacts management (added fields for instant messaging handles, Activity Log search for detailed contact history, etc)
* DataViz Documents To Go (Word To Go confirmed in some capacity)
* Browser upgrade (crisp fonts and emails, new bookmarks entry point, Desktop and Cursor modes enabled by default, etc)
* *Video Recording enabled for legacy devices (holding my breath while patiently counting - 1, 2, pass out)
* Voice Notes recorder and clip management
* Wireless OS upgrades (again, with an asterisk)

Okay, wheres the bubble buster, you ask? From my preview of OS 4.3.1, I came to the conclusion that a lot of the new features were simply laying the groundwork for unleashed-in-all-their-glory enhancements when combined with updates from the BES and BIS platforms. For example, while we have an HTML/Rich-Text engine installed for email (net_rim_bb_rich_email.cod) and we have a new look and feel when reading emails, the fireworks are only unleashed when BES or BIS will support the parsing of in-line images or font and stylesheet support within the email application. Huh?! Currently, as of BIS 2.4 and BES 4.1 SP4, email will still be parsed and delivered to a device running OS 4.3.1 as plain-text, which weve all come to love and hate since 1999.

The same concept of framework can be applied to the wireless OS upgrade technology (OTASL, or over-the-air software loading, for those who have heard this rumored for the last year or so). This technology was released, in part, in BES 4.1 SP4. When a device running OS 4.3.1 is activated on the BES, a new service book, Desktop [OTASL], is pushed to the device and Wireless Upgrade is now a working albeit currently useless option due to the lack of a management interface to configure the OTASL packages.

for people who ordered on the east coast, where are they shipping it from ?

I remember when i ordered my SK3 when it first dropped everyone who had ground shipping got it next day anyway so the express was a waste of money.

You will get more help posting in the official blackberry thread. Search for it, should only be back a few pages.
 
Is the Blackberry Curve worth getting for AT&T? I've heard mixed reviews. Thanks.

I might cop a BB curve 8310 for AT&T/cingular i already got the voice plan down and i figured ill use jivetalk for the aim
but i have a Question about the web browser..what data plan shud i get ? All i reely need is a reg good internet so i can go on myspace, NT , google and otherrandom websites and surf the web etc..i dont reely need any high class thing so which data plan (cingular/at&t) shud i get? Thx!
 
To be honest, the curve's internet ain't great. As for t-mo's 8320, its wi-fi ain't great; it can hardly detect my school's network and Idont believe it's ever made a firm connection. So if surfing the web on a phone is a big deal to you, get the iphone. The curve can't see apple in thatregard. But it's sick with communication features and its interface feels that much better than any windows mobile garbage. (no offense to kal)
 
Yo keep this post alive... Y'all need to check out the new Facebook app for BB..it'scooked coke mixed with baking soda.
