This might seem completely random, but everyone here seems pretty up to speed with technology and such so...
I was searching for a new phone and right now I'm stuck between the Blackberry curve, and the Palm Centro...Does anyone have any suggestions on which phone would be the best choice? (at&t is my carrier fyi)

Thanks!

+1 for Blackberry.
I uset to have the Curve, now have the bold, and never had any issues.
Notes:
- Simple Interface
- Easy to navigate using the ball
- Great keyboard

- BB Personal Plan is going to cost you a little depending on carriers
- BB Enterpise is needed if connecting to your company email depending how its configured. We uses Exchange + BEZ system so you have to have enterpise plan.

Besides that great phone, and the bold is fast as anything if you are thinking about it over the curve.

well, i went with the curve 8310...and i love it...
my only issue will be my next phone bill...i used my mom's upgrade and when switching everything the clerk did not put the data plan with my number so now i might have a lot of internet charges unless we can get that fixed...

Thanks everyone!

I ended up going with the Blackberry Curve 8310 and I love it (minus the small internet issue where they didn't put me down for the data plan, it was a "mistake" so now my family's family plan which is usually around $150 is up to about $300 this month...)

~If i had t-mobile the Google Android would have definitely been an option...I like the touch screen phones with the full slide out keyboards...i wouldn't be able to handle texting on a touch screen...i have enough trouble trying to type on my i-pod touch!

Ahead in what?

Sales, usage, unpaid fees, members, models, caused automobile accidents, battery usage?
