BlackBerry Curve 8310 Specs

had 4 of these phones all of them had 6 month life under extreme conditions (droped from 2nd story rooves, swam with in pool, xray machines, you name it the phones been through it) and every time the final blow to the phone was either theft or crushed under heavy object (e.i. car, load of lumber) dunno if its military grade but it should be rated at that level. features are great: had 8 gig micro sd with music and videos music played fine had a little lag between songs but no prob. video was great no lag at all. and finally suprisingly fast for only a 3XX mhz processor.also on a final note no case was ever used on the phones when droped or submerged.

Ok people, if you are looking for a phone that has a very loud speaker, excellent battery life, a full qwerty keyboard, music player, enhanced web, ability to install apps(for instance, Slacker Radio, Myspace Mobile, etc), ability to set full songs as ringtones, bluetooth, and a very high quality camera, this is the phone for you. When my parents first got AT&T on November 18th of 2008, I got the Samsung SGH-A737 which was a pretty impressive phone. I lost the charger a few months later and then had to share chargers with my parents. Well, when I got money for my birthday(March 22nd of this year, I am 13) I went to radioshack and bought A Nokia 6085(gophone since I had already gotten a 2 year contract, I just swapped Sim Cards from the slider to the nokia and it worked) and a 2 gigabyte micro SD card. I LOVED it. then in mid June, my grandpa found the Blackberry Curve 8310 while he was cleaning my cousin's house, she didn't use it anymore. we had de activated her contract. it is only about six months old, she only used it for one so it is practically still new at this day and time. I swapped my Sim card and Memory Card to it(It was from AT&T, it even said it on the bottom of the phone)so since I had AT&T, it worked. and I LOVE this phone. I might not have had it long yet, but mI still love it. My grandma payed $600 for it when it was new and I got it for free. At Bestbuy, it Still retails for $550, but if you buy it directly from AT&T, it can be yours for $200. I would recommend this phone to ANYBODY.

I've had this phone and service for 2 months now. Can I get a refund AT&T???
Good:
Battery life is outstanding
GPS works like a charm through Google Maps
Gmail downloads directly to the phone
Bluetooth transfers files!!! Sweet!!!
 
Bad:
Internet is SLOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW (WAY slower than my OLD 700W at Verizon)
Trackball is a joke. When surfing some sites and using the trackball to scroll down, the OS will drop to the very bottom of the page. Right when I think I'm at the point of clicking, bamm! To the bottom we go...  Stupid.
 
Some other "minor" issues but my biggest complaint is being on my 2nd phone from RIM. Yea, the first one would not hold a signal at all. Now my new one holds a signal, but for some odd reason "Froze" a missed call when I had no missed call... (Indicator light was on, top right of screen)
So, now I'm on 2 phones and a full reset to fix the stuck icon.
 
Quality product... um... Can I get a refund now please???
