Ok, so I have something techy to update on!!!  

I’VE TRADED IN MY iPHONE!  Yes, shocking, but true.  I have a tendency to get bored with things quickly, and the iPhone just wasn’t enough to keep me entertained any longer.  

Deciding on what phone to get was a little tough.  I decided that I was definitely going to get a blackberry, I use to have a Pearl and am definitely a big fan.  Their operating system is great and their email truly cannot be beat.  At first I thought I would get the Storm.  But then I thought about it, if I’m going to get a Storm I might as well stick with my iPhone.  They are really similar, and I would just end up being disappointed.  Getting a new phone meant getting something different, and the storm is just way too similar.  So here was the hard part… the bold or the curve?

 I posted an ad on craigslist and said I would trade my iphone for either.  I figured I would just go with whoever wanted to do an outright trade first, and whatever phone it was would be fine.  I stuck with this idea for about an hour.  After doing a ton of research and reading review after review, it seemed like the new Curve 8900 would be the phone of choice.  The only downfall is that it doesn’t run on 3G, but when it is connected to wi-fi it runs just as fast.  The bold is also bigger and heavier, and one thing I was definitely looking forward to by getting away from my iPhone was a smaller and much lighter phone.  I also read that the keyboard on the curve, where the buttons are spaced out, is much easier to type on then that of the bold where the buttons are all together.  The camera on the curve is a 3.2 megapixel while the bold only has a 2.0.  I mean honestly, it seems like these phone really only have minor differences between the two.  The Curve has more memory, but the bold has a faster processor.  Making my decision came down to one thing in the end: which one looks better?  I went with the curve.  It’s cute and fun and smaller, and I personally think it looks a little more girly than the Bold.  

So…. yep.  I have left iPhone world and joined the Blackberry one.  I’ve already changed the theme to this cute barbie theme I found, added my necessary apps, and downloaded a few ringtones.  My Curve 8900 review is soon to come…
