Most blackberrys have the text option for non camera phones. have them switch it to a camera phone text plan

its finally here yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Mine came today as well... woo hoooooooooo

Got my phone this AM. Quickly got it sync'd with my exchange and am loving it. Unfortunately the Empower BES Mailbox software I had on my 8830 doesn't work on the new one as it is OS 4.3... Other than that I love the phone.

question, i have someone that gave there company account number to me.
she can get approval for ordering the curve but cant have the numbers
on the account. is this possible?
i pretty much just want the b2b discount.

Mine was delivered today!!

Got mine all set up & went to the browser...to my surprise, there was a mouse pointer on the screen What a hoot!!

Received mine this morning ..... having trouble downloading VZ Navigator.

Anyone else experiencing problems ??

haven't received it, but have you tried the ole' battery pull then install. Also, resend your service books.

Wirelessly posted (Verizon 8130)

It is on the website right now. I just ordered mine.

os 4.5 i am guessing? how is the device, slow speedy . screen brightness? This cdma curve should be similar to the sprint version.

Os 4.3

...

It's totally on their site. Just ordered one myself and the chat help person said it was shipping tomorrow. Finally!

I see it on their site as well, MAN do I want to order one!


Any one not liking their curve and want to trade for a 8130 and 8703e?

So now thats it on the site does this mean they will have it in the stores sooner?

this is my first Blackberry device, i received it about 12pm and my tounge is still hanging out

Looks like it is officially on the Verizon website. They list VZ Navigator as an option and I am curious if you need the picture messaging plan to send pics via email.

no pictures in email are data. MMs iswhen you need the pic messaging i am glad its included in my plan. My wife and i always send each other silly pictures to make each other smile.

The local verizon store said that they will have the curve next week, wondering if anyone is getting the same response from their local stores.

Woodstock - Store (5 miles)

Talked to Kyle at the above store he says the 12th of May

Is there any way to track phone orders? The online tracking isn't the same.

Well you never know with Verizon. I think we all know their track record in the past with locking down the phone so you have to pay extra. I love their service but I hate the fact that they control totally what you can do. Sprint allows you to use the built in GPS....what a great idea. Let the customer use what the phone is built for. Hopefully they wont play and games with the Wi-Fi either.

Can anyone send receive Picture text messages? I can not.

If I go through the upgrade online the only offer they give me is some 50 mail in rebate, for some reason, even though I haven't upgraded my phone in 2 years, I don't get any discount for it. I even opted for the 44.99 unlimited plan and they didn't discount me for that either. I don't get it.

Complexx,

I would call them and talk with a sales rep!!!

Looks like I'll have to.

I backed up my old BB and want to restore those files on to the new BB. How do I do this? This is my second BB, so I've never done this before. Thanks for the help.

Called my B2B Rep, he said no problem. Now i sit here with a big smile on my face as i came to my fedex package which has my curve! YES!

Hope everyone has theirs or has their's coming!

Sprint, where art thou? Anyone have the same luck with sprint getting an order in?

Will the 8330 read SD HC chips? Or is it just standard SD? Anyone know the max supported size?

According to the specs on the VZW website, the 8330 will support the 8GB SDHC cards.

Now hold on there try and send a MMS with a sprint 8130 and see what happens you cant use MMS at all but hey you can find the person you want and drive to their house to show them the pic.

The phone wasnt built for GPS its built as a email device with all the extra stuff attached.

Kinda like when you use a set of pliers to hammer with..

i called 7 people and no one could get me the damn phone...but it will ship friday soo i just have to wait until sat!

Question about consumer pricing.....

I am NOT eligible for the New Every2 credit. So therefore I would be purchasing the device at the full retail cost of $429.99.

Am I supposed to get any credits for having a data plan? Do employee discounts apply to devices?

What prices are you other guys paying without the contract extension/NE2??

TIA

Isn't it time to move this from Rumors???

Ordered mine today for a grand total of $58 after all rebates.

I don't get the New Every Two since I'm not the main phone on the account, so it would be like $240 or something like that for me. Not worth it to me. How did you get it so cheap?

P.S. GO HAWKEYES!!!!

Not exactly Dawg. I am just saying that in the past some of the features that users really want to use were unavailable. Kind of like buying a hammer and not being able to use it to pull nails. I am a business customer and this is first off a phone and email device for me. However, if the functionality is there then why not let the users us it.

I understand what you are saying and it has been discussed many many many many many many (well you get the picture) times. But VZW isnt the only one whos does this is what i am saying.

Not sure who else does it. But I can tell you that the google maps feature without GPS works great if you more or less know the area you are in. It has helped me many times.

The primary purpose of the device is as dawg says, email, and of course the phone. Beyond that are bonuses.
