What's Hot

Style and design, trackball, multimedia features

What's Not

Lack of Wi-Fi and HSDPA/3G, productivity applications still thin

The Final Word

The BlackBerry Curve is a seductive alternative to other candy-bar phones with wide-aspect-ratio screens. If the provider's price is right, the Curve could well become the hot smart phone of the moment.
