Has anyone had any success fitting a PNY MicroSD card into their Curve? Once I put it in the slot it seems impossible to get the latch to go back down and into the lock position. Are there some MicroSDs that don't fit the Curve? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I've never used a PNY MicroSD card, but all MicroSD cards should be a standard size.

As mentioned above, MicroSD cards are one size.

Is it in backwards?

Are you sliding the card into the latch and then rotating the card and latch together to the flattened position, then sliding the latch to lock it?

I have a 4gig pny micro sd card in my curve right now, and it fits just fine.

I've used PNY cards in mine as well and it fit okay. put it in the latch first and then push that down and lock it.

just a heads up, coremicro cards crap out 2 out of 3 times.

since no one else has said this, I feel the need to ask...

did you install the card correctly? you are supposed to lift the slot "cover", then insert the card INTO the Cover, then shut the thing and lock it. if you (...did what I did, and...) tried to install a card without reading the manual first, you might put the card on the board and then try to close the flap over it. that wont work...

heres a snap from page 36 of your getting started guide.

Insert a media card
Use a microSD media card to extend the memory available on your BlackBerry® device for storing media files such as songs, ring tones, videos, or pictures. The media card might be sold separately from your device.
1. Press the release button for the battery cover.
2. Slide off the battery cover.
3. If the battery is inserted, remove the battery.
4. Slide the media card holder door toward its hinges to unlock it.
5. Open the media card holder door.
6. Place the media card into the slots in the media card holder door so that the metal contacts on the media card align with the metal contacts on your device when the media card holder door is closed.
7. Close the media card holder door.
8. Slide the media card holder door away from its hinges to lock it.
9. Insert the battery so that the metal contacts on the battery align with the metal contacts on your device.
10. Slide the battery cover back onto the device so that it clicks into place.
