Pretty much have decided I'm going to get the 8330, but just want to confirm - does the 8330 have the same ringer volume issue as the 8830 or is it plenty loud like my old 8700?

[zerog46]

I got it as soon as it came out, and have not noticed any ringer problems. I have had the 8830, 8130 and now the 8330. As with all of them some ringtones are louder than others.

Zero,
You are fortunate.
I will wait for the 9xxx. It will be interesting to see what effect the 4.5 OS has on these devices.

It will be hard for me to give up the Curve, I love this keyboard.

z,

How as the switch for you on the keyboard? I went from a 7750 to 7130e to 8130, and am now considering a move to the curve. keyboard is my main concern.

[zerog46]

It's one of the best keyboards I have used. The only one that was better, was probably the old 7200 series.

[003402]

thanks. nice endorsement. I hope to make the move within the next week or two.

[zerog46]

It's definately worth it. I think the 8130 is great too, I just wanted the bigger screen.

I'm pretty much with akosnitzky I want to see how 4.5 goes with my 8830, I got 22 free MBs right now I want to see what happens with 4.5. Besides I can do an early upgrade in mid August and I am typically a patient person so I will wait. I might just wait for 9000 tough choice, time will tell of course.

[zerog46]

I have to say the one nice thing about this 8330 is the free space, I have over 50mb free.

So no one is complaining about ringer volume on the 8330 then? The 8830 is known for this issue.

[zerog46]

Not a problem at all for me..

[jsntrenkler]

The ringer is louder on the 8330.

i think the keyboard on the curve isn't as good as the keyboard on the 8700. maybe it's b/c i am used to it, but the keyboard on the 8330 seems small and i find myself pressing areas where the buttons would be, and instead i am pressing in between buttons. granted, i just got this phone on saturday, so i'll give it some more time before i pass full judgment on the keyboard hah

Switched from te 8830 to the 8330 and find the ring volume louder than the 8830.

I went from the 7250 to the 7130 to the 8703e to the 8130 to the 8830 to the 8330 and I must say that the Curve is the best of them all. The keyboard is fantastic and I haven't had any of the ringer or memory issues like I had with the 8830 or the Pearl.

I mirror the sentiments above. The ringer is much louder, the keyboard reminds me of my old 7750 which I loved and I've dumped a ton of third party apps on the phone with no problem and plenty of free space.
