Its tempting but so is saving the $$ and waiting for the newer models which all the BB sites are providing info on (ie, 9000). Is there another practical reason to move to the Curve, besides having a new, cool toy?

Just thinking aloud here.
New toy, camera will help me at work. Also, as a Verizon customer, it is at least a year out for anything like the 9000. That is not 100%, but most likely a year after everyone else gets it. Plus, this device already has EVDO with fast connection speeds, I believe one of the draws of the 9000 is the 3G connectivity for those that don't have it yet.
