BlackBerry Curve 8300
Some Curve Questions
Ok, I'm really close to considering this phone. I have some questions.
1) What kind of "over the air" calendar syncing does the Curve have? I'm using goosync for my RAZR v3xx at the moment. Works good.
2) I've heard comments about dust behind the screen. Can a "slip case" that covers the outer parts of the phone solve this issue? I know that would drive me nuts!
3) Any other "gotcha's" that you noticed with this phone only after you started using it?

In response to your questions
1.) I'm not familiar with the over the air syncing - I have a mac, and sync through pocket mac
2.) Yes, a condom case will stop the dust from getting under the screen. Just please keep it out of your pocket - why spend that kind of money, and not get any kind of case?
3.) This phone is packed full of amazing features - and also has a ton of downloadable apps (google maps, opera mini) You will love this phone, I promise.

Thanks for your answers. I would be getting a case since I put most of my phones in my pocket. Some cases cover the outer edges of the phone and from the discussion I followed, this seems to be where the dust is getting into the phone.

Of course, I won't buy one unless I'm sure it will help. That's why I posted the question. I wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations for a "proper" case.
I guess I could give up the OTA syncing, although I find it convenient to sync to my Google calendar. There is a solution for using a BlackBerry with GooSync, but i...
