Advantages: Email, lots of free themes/addons, lots of configuration options

Disadvantages: Need for a data plan to use all features

I have been living with my Blackberry Curve since Apirl 09 and it is one of the best phones, if not the best, i have owned. The screen is amazingly good, albeit smaller than other phones such as the Apple iphone but the quality makes up for this. Mobile email is where the Curve really shines but if your not someone who makes/recieves a lot of emails then this phone is still for you. Lots of configuration available on the device so you can have it set up just how you want it and lots of free apps and themes you can put on your phone.

However, like all phones there are some downsides and here they are. To access all the features on the phone(blackberry app world and GPS maps) you need to have a data plan, which for me was an extra £10 per month ontop of my tarrif plan. This may be less depending on if you get a good deal with your phone company but for me it was definately worth the £10 extra.

Summary: Great phone, lots of features.
