WTB: BlackBerry Curve

[wako]

This is a great opportunity for people who went from a Curve to an iPhone!



Im interested in buying a BlackBerry Curve. Preferably a unlocked one.

The condition I am looking for is one with no scratches on the screen, and on the face. Scratches on the back must be microscratches, basically scratches that can only been seen at an angle.

I dont have much money, so Im thinking of 200-250 USD?


Thanks :)

I have a brand new Curve for $250. It was used for a handful of minutes just for activation purposes.

I'm on a business trip, but I will take pictures on Sunday. I can get it unlocked if you like.

Not meaning to derail, but if you are willing to sign a contract with ATT you can get this phone for $60. I saw "unlocked" in your OP, but i thought i would throw this out there.

I'm in the same boat as you. I have an 8800, and my girlfriend who has att, I made her upgrade to get the curve, so then I can unlock it and use it with my tmo. BUT, after reading numerous posts online people were having issues getting online with the bb browser, not having "my favs" on it, etc. etc. It had something to do with the phone not recognizing tmobile's service books. Remember that att only had a 90-day exclusive on the curve, so t-mo and verizon should be getting it sometime in september. In addition, tmo WILL be getting the cuve, only we are gonna have GPS on it, while att's curve does not have GPS. And if we are lucky enough, they just might give us the curve that tmobile germany has which has GPS and WIFI. Just be patient, it pays.

Edit: BTW, I didn't mean to thread crap, just stating the facts. IMO the curve the best blackberry out. It's such a beautiful phone, I can't wait to get it on tmo.

Edit 2: Helpful Links:

Boygeniusreport.com (http://www.boygeniusreport.com)- The best site for blackberry news, and it's always been dead accurate on blackberry rumors. They were the first one to report that the new Blackberry Pearl 2 is going to come out in different colors.

actually....


The 8320 that is coming to Tmobile does not have GPS, but has WiFi, this is for @Home network. The Curve released to Germany is actually the 8310 that has GPS on the curve but does not have WiFi....


I honestly dont care about the loss of the BB Browser. I dont use it. I use opera for all of my surfing needs anyways. And I dont care for WiFi either because I'm not getting the Tmobile @Home service either. So waiting is fruitless for me :(

I'm also waiting for T-Mo to release the Curve (Sept?) but I didn't know that to use Wi-Fi, @Home was required. If the 8320 did come with GPS, would it be an extra service?

no no...


the real benefits of WiFi on the phone is through @Home service that Tmobile provides. You can still connect the phone onto your WiFi network at home and then surf on your phone. Which is totally stupid in my books because why would you do that when you can just go on your computer? :P

The 8310 that was just released to Germany is actually a Curve with GPS. To use GPS though you dont need any extra service. On my BlackBerry 8800 (a device that has built-in GPS) I can easily just use Google Maps and see my exact location. Can you even give it turn by turn directions to a place. However if you want to use that GPS on the phone as a navigation device, it requires a an extra service called TeleNav. Its actually pretty cool. I tried out the 30 day trial and was pretty impressed, but for another 10 bucks a month, I rather not.


As for this thread, I have bought a BlackBerry Curve from xfiftyfour. Just waiting for it to get shipped now. Thanks for those who sent their offers.
