I LOVE this phone. I have had it for about a week now. It has all the features you could possibly want or think about in a phone. I had a Treo before which I was really disappointed in. The sync feature was really sad...it never would sync right and burned the battery down. On the Curve, the battery is great and what can I say...you cannot beat the immediate email notification of a blackberry phone! the keys are great and the camera has great quality. The other huge improvement for me was the quality of the web browser. It's almost like you're viewing a web site on a computer because it's so easy to read and view the content.

The only feature I do miss not having is...having the blackberry phone remember usernames, email addresses and things you enter into websites on a regular basis. I've asked 3 people at Sprint and one person who has had a blackberry for awhile and apparently it's a security feature so you have to type everything in every time. It would also be nice to have a different tone play for each person who text messages you...but that's just my preference! Other than that, it has everything you could want!

value- i think it is a litte high in monthly price
installation - was extremely easy and had no problem
software - the software controls the data card very smoothly
connectivity - i haven't had a place where i couldn't connect yet.
performance - it is relatively fast but fastest of the different companies.

I held off on rating until I'd had the card for about 6 months. I recommend it to anyone who has a laptop and who doesn't want to be shackled to hot spots. I always have great speed; the only reason I gave a 9 on connectivity was that a few times I've had to make more than one attempt to connect. The positive outweighs the negative exponentially.

I got slightly misplaced in another city not long after I got it so I just pulled off the road, started up my laptop, and pulled up a Google map. It was so nice not to have to find the nearest Starbucks or wherever.

I also raced my coworker last month--he has the Verizon card--and I won. This card results in faster browsing than theirs. I won't be without one from now on.

Superb! Monday, 05 May 2008 Expand

Installed in a jiffy, with no complications at all. It works *great* -- I get wireless data on Sprint in many places my Verizon phone cannot even get a signal! MUCH better than hunting for wifi signals.
