RIM BlackBerry Curve 8310 - titanium (AT&T)

By (cnet.com)

The RIM BlackBerry Curve 8310 adds GPS capabilities to the already impressive and sleek messaging smartphone. You also get a 2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and good call quality.

The Curve 8310 doesn't offer Wi-Fi or 3G support. The Web browser isn't the sleekest, and the camera lacks video-recording capabilities. Also, unlike the T-Mobile version, you get only the proprietary BlackBerry Messenger IM client.

"Amazing Phone!!!!"

By itskater (cnet.com)

Great phone not very many flaws. 

Great for texting. I only use the basics, so I don't know how the internet is but the interface is amazing along with the camera. It has to be the best 2.0 Mega Pixel camera iv used. 3.5 mm jack great sound quality. Very loud speaker.

Theres no video recording. and the settings can be a little confusing.

By pbishopii (cnet.com)

1. Can't shoot video. How many phones/PDA's... 

I can use the screen as a flashlight.Some nice ring tones.It's thinner than my Treo 700.GPS with Google maps is cool.

Can't shoot video.Phone reception stinks.Very limited themes.Extra crap I can't delete.Browser is horrible.Tethering is not standard.

By jrodzs (cnet.com)

Stilish, good keyboard

unable to read html emails. The calendar is not good. Unable to send meeting requests from calendar. But the really bad thing is the email software.
