RIM’s BlackBerry Curve line of smartphones has been crowned the best selling smartphone in the United States.

Research released by IDC.com shows that, during the fall of 2009, the BlackBerry Curve outsold both the iPhone and Motorola Droid.

Many of the BlackBerry Curve sales can be attributed to the success of the Curve 8300 series—the direct ancestor of the Curve 8530.

The success of the BlackBerry Curve is directly attributed to its ease of use, low price, and presence on all of the major US wireless providers’ product lines.

The newest iteration of the BlackBerry Curve, the Curve 8530, features many improvements in hardware and software functionality. 802.11 b/g WiFi, a faster processor, an optical trackpad (which replaced the 8300’s iffy trackball), and many other strong improvements are included.

Four other BlackBerry models were included in the top ten best-selling smartphones of late 2009, including the Bold, Tour, Pearl, and touchscreen Storm.

It’s interesting that only four of the phones listed on the top ten list feature touchscreens: those being the iPhone, Motorola Droid, BlackBerry Storm, and myTouch 3G. Future top ten best-selling smartphone lists will probably include many more touchscreen devices as touch technology improves.

You can get a Curve 8530 for free on either the Sprint or Verizon networks. 

Both Wirefly.com and Amazon.com offer the Curve 8530 for free with a 2-year service plan or the renewal of a current plan.

The Curve 8520 is basically the same phone as the 8530, though it lacks 3G data speeds. 

The Curve 8520 is available on the AT&T and T-Mobile networks, and can be obtained for free through either Wirefly.com or Amazon.com with a 2-year service plan or renewal of a current plan.

LCD Screen Protector and Privacy Filter

This accessory serves two purposes: it protects the BlackBerry’s LCD screen from scratches and knicks, plus it turns the screen completely black to anyone trying to view your Blackberry from the side.

After two years, my Curve 8330 has no scratches on the screen and numerous attempts to spy on what I was messaging while in public were foiled. At only $4.99, the LCD Screen Protector and Privacy Filter is a must have.

Phone Cover Protector Case

A phone cover made of hard plastic is a necessity.

Over two years, I managed to drop my Curve more times than I’m comfortable admitting to. But the hard cover protected the phone to all possible damage, and the Curve looks brand-new, two years later.

Most snap-on phone protectors are around $10. The phone protector shown above is $12.99.

BlackBerry Curve 8530 Car Charger

Another basic accessory that is absolutely worth the expense.

You will never be out of the home with a dead battery if you have a car charger.

You can get a car charger for the Curve 8530 for as little as $0.81.

Personally, I’d buy either the retractable charger shown above at $10.92, or the OEM charger sold by BlackBerry at $13.98.

Available on both the Verizon and Sprint Networks, the new BLACKBERRY CURVE 8530 is the highly-anticipated, significantly improved update to the CURVE 8330, which was released early 2008.

The BlackBerry Curve 8530 is positioned to be the BlackBerry to purchase for first-time smartphone buyers.  The BlackBerry Curve 8530 is free with a new or renewed service plan through Sprint or Verizon.

Considering how empowered users become with such a powerful suite of messaging, e-mail, Internet browsing, and other applications, the BlackBerry Curve 8530 is truly the best available smartphone deal.

FEATURES & IMPROVEMENTS:

The BlackBerry Curve 8530 is significantly improved over its predecessor, the 8330.  Some new features include:

• 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi
• Bluetooth v2.1
• Optical trackpad for improved and more comfortable input (and a more durable device)
• BlackBerry OS 5.0 (updated browser, threaded text messages, e-mail enhancements)
• 256MB flash memory
• Faster processor (528 MHz Qualcomm MSM7600 processor)
• Dedicated media buttons
• Support for more media standards

IMPROVED BUILD QUALITY:

The overall look and feel of the BlackBerry Curve 8530 is more professional and finished than that of the Curve 8330.

• The sides and corners of the BlackBerry Curve 8530 are rubber, which will add to the device’s durability.
• The 8530’s keyboard has softer, rounded keys for easier use
• Lighter weight (down to 3.7 ounces)

ADDITIONAL FEATURES:

And of course, you also get the following great features:

• GPS support
• BlackBerry Maps application for autonomous, GPS enabled navigation

• Easy-to-use BlackBerry OS
• 2.0 MP camera
• Functional color LCD screen
• Exceptional support for e-mail and messaging
• Easy and fast messaging with the built-in keyboard
• Expandable memory with microSD flash cards
• Strong battery life: continuous talk time ~4.5 hours, standby time of 10.5 days

There are two sites that come highly recommended for all cell phone purchases:

1) Wirefly.com

The BlackBerry Curve is FREE at Wirefly.com, plus you get free FedEx shipping. Highly recommended and easy to use.

2) Amazon.com

The BlackBerry Curve 8530 is available for only $0.01 at Amazon.com, the Internet’s #1 retailer.

Purchase online rather than dealing with the hassle or the local Verizon or Sprint retailer, or any other brick-and-mortar retailer. You will spend far less time with service representatives trying to upgrade you to vastly more expensive products.
