Hey guys, new to this forum. I own a personal Verizon 8703e. I am a federal employee IT manager with a Marine Corps Command. We have an annual contract with Verizon that includes 250 8830 blackberries (which I have one of them too). In November their Govt sales rep told me they were getting the Curve and it was in testing. I asked about it because my wife wants one and he can get me a discount outside of my "new every 2" plan deal. He didn't know what the release date is because that's outside of his swim lane as the Govt won't buy Curves (due to the camera), he just knew it was in testing. Hope this helps. - Jim
