BlackBerry 8830

Hey all

Is it me(my device really) or is the volume for tones VERY low........I previously had the 8700 with T-Mobile, and the LOW on that is the same as the HIGH on this?

Also, how do you download ringtones? The help says you are suppose to go into Media, Ringtones, All ring tones, and select download tones, but i do not have that option

Remove the Micro SD card because Mac loads 2 Files on it that cannot be read by the phone. .DS Store and Trash Folders are loaded on the SD card and cause conflict. In the past a program called File Buddy culd be used to delete these files and properly eject the mounted micro SD without these files. Pocet Mac is not supported properly by Verizon. Just a heads up fpr MAC users.

anyone know if it has WiFi capability?? it doesnt look like it...??

How does this work, does Sprint and/or Verizonwireless provide a sim card for overseas use? Or is the gsm side unlocked and you just buy a local sim card?

Initially the word was this device was going to be released on May 14 for business customers and online. It still isn't up on Verizon's site and was curious if anyone knew when it'll be available. My assumption is the May 28 consumer release will coincide with the online release.

Also if anyone has seen the phone please let me know how it works.

any one knows if the browser support flash player?!

Interesting, I just compared the 8800 cingular version and the battery life is much longer on the 8800. Don't know why this is so, thought they were the basically the same phone? Of course Verizon will criple some of the software features, but battery life?

Hey just messed with one for a few mins. very thin great screen, responsive I definitely like the track ball better.

is this a feature that is going to be locked?

The curve is the Blackberry I have been waiting for. I want to keep Verizon though. Does anybody know or can speculate if and when Verizon will have it?

When will these people listen and learn. Business people like a dark phone that does not stick out like a Nascar advertisement on the belt. VZW and these phone companies take BRANDING to a new level. As silly as it sounds, I will not buy this phone because of the silver color. Why is it so hard to stick to black? Comments?

why no camera? i know... to most businesspeople, it's useless but its a very handy feature and i'm not sure why they don't include one?

Why can't there be a phone with CDMA and at least GSM 1900....

Would make it sooooo much easier for us idiots that have a GSM and CDMA provider...

And what happened to the Camera?

What is a good bluetooth 2.0 headset to use with the 8800/8830? Thanks,
MIF.

does this have a camera?

how come the pearl is like the only blackberry w. a camera.. i mean, i have the pearl for tmobile and i thought tmobile sucked, but i guess the better the phone the better the service...
