Hi all. I just got my BB 8330 Curve less than a week ago and am loving it. It's been a long road to the BB.
On 9/11 I went to cell store to get one. I spoke with the receptionist because all of the sales people were busy this was my first mistake. She told me a few things about BB that in the end were not correct. I went with a Moto Q9c instead...my second mistake.
Long story short...I had 3 of them. The first 2 kept crashing or rebooting. I thought I liked the Q9c so I said I would try one more. I stopped at the store to pay my bill and they asked how it was going (I was on a first name basis with everyone now) I told them it worked but I didn't like it. Sales told me they want me to be happy and asked if I had thought about the BB. I told them why I went Windows Mobile instead and found out what I had been told (limited web surfing, cannot sync with Outlook) was not correct. I walked out with the Curve. It only took me 3 weeks to get what I originally went to buy. Sorry for long post and basically the moral of this story is "no comparison between BB and Windows Mobile".

Greetings, and welcome to the BBForum.

Interesting (and unfortunate) story--with a good ending.

I will borrow what I have read here posted by another member... BB is a stable and mature OS. I believe it as I have went the Windows Mobile path and know that Glitz is not a subsitute for function. Welcome to BB world.
