The good

The bad
No 3G, no Wi-Fi
Verdict
We liked the Curve when it first came out (we actually personally own one) and the addition of GPS is a welcomed one

  • Is the Blackberry Curve 8310 Smartphone compatible with UConnect Posted by Don Willson, Canada
  • Nice device and, as a replacement for previous Psion & mobile, it does the job with some compromise. Be prepared to spend time going through the user info - a PhD would be useful. You need full Outlook (not just Express) to sensibly maintain & synchronise calendar, contacts etc otherwise tiny screen/keyboard will annoy. A plug-in WiFi device would be ideal but not found one yet, looks like an upgrade needed. Maps & GPRS so far disfunctional - hope to sort with support. Sounds a bit negative but, as a £25 upgrade on my Vodaphone contract, its good value. Posted by Rick Bowden, UK
