I've had and 8330 Curve (Verizon) for a bit over 2 years - it works fine and does pretty much everything I need it to. I'm eligible for a new BB and wonder what the best choice is and if there is any reason to wait for a new model or features.

I've looked at the 8530 just because I'd like WIFI,I guessing that makes web stuff faster, but I think I'm giving up some things like a flash on the camera.

Any thoughts opinions/ideas suggestions are most appreciated.

Wait for the Tour2.

+1. The Tour2 will be every bit as good as the Bold2/9700. It's an awesome phone... It should be out within the next month or so, based on the chatter...
