[dajoker121]

can someone answer my question can a verizon blackberry 8330 curve become a prepaid??? please reply

[vivera243]

is it worth having without internet?????

[cosmochica24]

i have this exact phone but in pink for verizon. my Green LED light flashes every 5 seconds to indicate im in service area. How can i turn it off! its so annoying! i cant find the "settings" option that the phone suggests in order to turn it off.

[OliviaMakeupChannel]

this is a really dumb question but oh well i have never had a blackberry but im thinking of getting this one for verizon. does this blackberry curve have the capabilities of getting twitterberry, etc? :) thanks!

[DotsandMusic]

Yes it does,I have it for sprint,but you can get it on verizon.

[rolotu]

i am sorry but that is not a clip on the back of the pouch

[areebrules]

does this have a micro sd card slot

[KatrinaGustavRuled]

its under the battery. you'll see a slot a the top left side, looks like a "door" that opens. stand that "door' up, insert the card, close it or lay it down, and insert the battery and ready to go;

[Diannalovesyou]

yay! mine comes in the mail tomorrow.

i'm really excited (:

[rmpunk99]

how can i get ringtones, music and internet on the phone?

[mkarmie]

does it support wifi?????

[allibaby94]

it doesent support wifi

[AhhhDree]

the leather case does not have a clip, It looks like it does but that clip looking part is just an extra piece glued onto the case which is useless!!! Other than that the phone is great!!!! I have the pink curve from Verizon and Im very pleased with it :]

[gtrplyr1970rr]

I might get one next week with the money from my at&t 8525 I just sold. [Or i might get a blackberry pearl 8110

[gtrplyr1970rr]

I might get it next week [ or the pearl]

[involuntaryfirebas22]

can i put my own ringtones on it, like from an MMS message or micro sd card?

[AhhhDree]

yes you can , you can actually use your music that you load onto your phone as a ringtone :] that's the best part ! I have this phone and I love it,

[Jackmiles2006]

Yes.

[Nightmareghost1]

just ordered mine..cant wait

[monsterstinker]

hahaha i like the brick breaker review you did

[akaydoll]

do you have to pay for the brick game? or is it already on there for free?

[chilla2]

I'm pretty sure it's the only built in game

[alexarockstar]

i want one so bad im gonna buy one with my birthday money in june...plus im already addicted to brickbreaker too late lol

[akaydoll]

do you know how much it cost? i wanted to get one this summer too

[thenewchance]

$54.99 for unlimited messaging for this a good deal?

[SimplyPolitical]

It's unlimited IM, messaging, email, and data. I say it is, especially with Verizon's great coverage. The only downside to that plan is no voice calling.

[MiissAshleyLynn]

Wait wouldnt you have to pay for the IM & email and whatnot?

[luvnsoul]

Yea the email and web stuff is the data plan which is 29.99. Then you need a VOICE plan which varies from different amount of mins you want. I think the cheapest for a individual plan is 30 dollars for 450 mins. So that's a totally of 60 bucks already. But then if you text, you have to get that as well. Everything adds up tremendously but it's all worth it bc verizon's coverage is AWESOME.

[hendrixgroupie23]

i was just wondering does this have wi-fi? plz reply

[tennisplayer421]

no it doesnt, only the curve 8320 has wi-fi and is only on at&t

[SoloFCPersonGuy]

It can be used as a wireless modem! You plug it into your computer, Preferrably a laptop, And then make sure you have service on the phone. VIOLA! It's a modem! You DO have to read the instructions to set it up, 'Cause I'm not gonna explain it all...

[iheartmakeupp]

no :(

[independentbabe94]

im getting that phoneee next week in pink yayy!!!! how much is the internet for it thoo because my daddd is gonna pay.

[shortys186]

omg me 2! this phone looks awesome

[nojodanny]

$30 a month for just internet. $45 with email also.

[tennisplayer421]

internet on verizon is only $20 and email is included with internet... so idk where nojodanny got his info but he's trippin balls

[SoundofMusic24]

are you 100% positive cuz i really want one

[buttercow12]

got this today for my bday, its awesome!

[fuse42zt]

where do u put the little flash media card in? the one wit all ur videos and pics?

[bizzy400]

its called a micro sd card and it goes behind the battery on this black berry it can only go up to 8GB and you cant take videos without one of them but it doesnt need to be the 8GB there 2MB micro SD cards to the starting memory is only 98MB or 96 MB so its not anof for a 2.0 mega pixel camera

[chippsssss]

im getting my first cell phone and im probibly gonna get dis 1. o and can u turn it off, so it doesnt wast du battery? o.O

[j03yl0nd0n]

im getting a blackberry 8330 this week!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yay

[sup3rdup3rsk869]

how much is the internet package for verizon? i heard its like 30 bucks. is there any cheaper packages

[michaelherron10]

yes its 30...but well worth it (I think)....and no there are no cheaper packages...hope this helps

[guitarshredda2]

is it a one time fee or do u pay once a month?

and do u have to pay to use email?

[clg420]

I'm pretty sure it's a monthly fee. Email is probably part of the data plan.

[choirboy93]

niiiice. im gettin it tomorrow =D soo excited

[ramblinwreck23]

hey i am getting a new phone and i was wandering your opinion on which one i should get......im really into ringtones, texting, ive never had a blackberry but i thought they were cool but im not in a buisness or anything so if i could get your opinion

[sara12319]

does it have wifi?

[PeeweeHaynes]

Does the blackberry keep its charge?

[ash6196]

this or the samsung flipshot black?

[Lpcomedian]

how is the battery life?

[VideosByTJ]

It's kind of terrible. I have this phone, and the battery is fine as long as you can charge it everyday. Otherwise, it'll die. If I don't make calls, it will have 2-3 bars of battery left, but if I make calles, it has 1-2 left.

[alfieciela94]

yes you can change the backround to any of your pictures my friend has it she took some pics and makes thm her backround kk and how is the keybouard on this im getting it but im only gettingt it for pics and vids messaging and txting and phone calls of course so pllzzzzz tell me how the keybpoard

[fivecolorsinmyhairxx]

keyboard's pretty good my friend has it. the buttons arent hard to press like some phones. once you use the keyboard for a week ull get the hang of it and love it...you can typee reallly fastt

[JackRicci95]

stupid question,,,but where do you dial to call? Where are the numbers on the phone?

[gccards26]

see where the keys are half white and half black thats what u use to dial

[clg420]

On the left side of the keypad.

[BugzMoran8]

How is the keyboard? Is it pretty strong or is it flimsy?

[bbHume]

strong

[midfieldsk8er]

[bbHume]

[crazyjonasfan122]

[sum10aboutu]

[P4CM4N15]

[fivecolorsinmyhairxx]

[CorpseEye]

i just bought a 4gb chip at futureship for $10, it would hold about 1000 songs that way. compare that to an ipod nano.

[AnimeProductionsInc]

1 being the worst 10 being the best what would you give it?

[kgee33]

so i have a micro sd with all my music and full music info like song name artist name album name ect. does the media player play wma format music such as windows media player music like the lg enV from verizon? and does it show the full song info in the main screen?

[JaBunGa23]

[cbird241]

[tnmn100]
