Rogers BlackBerry Curve 8900 unboxed!

By James on Dec 09, 2008 in BlackBerry, Canada, Curve 8900 Series, Rogers.

The folks over at BBCool have just unboxed the new BlackBerry Curve 8900 from Rogers Wireless. They started off saying how it has an amazing form factor, however the device was a little choppy at first in terms of speed. Other than that they seem pretty happy with the new Curve.

I had a chance to sit down and play with one for a few minutes the other day. I was very impressed with how small and thin it is. The new atomic trackball works very well and looks great. I might end up picking up one or just wait for a Storm. I can’t decide :)
