I can get a sick plan (Pretty much half off of a 70$ plan) and half off of the phone from Bell mobility, so don't tell me they're a waste of money, because its a pretty good deal. But Bell sells both the Storm and the Curve 8330. I'm going to mainly use it for texting/email, phone, Facebook and internet. I have an iPod touch so I'm not worried about media. Which phone would you guys recommend? I've heard many bad things about the storm but is it as bad as they say?

I would wait for the new Blackberry Bell is coming out with in July, it will even sync with iTunes.  You will like it a lot more, its worth the wait.

if you are using it for texting, then go with the curve, because it has an actual keyboard for typing

Once you get used to the interface, the Curve is an awesome device.

i love my curve, but get insurance on it, because its easyier for the screen and keyboard to get jacked becasue it doesnt have a cover on the front (like a normal flip phone).

I know many people that have the storm some love it some hate it. It does have problems but they are working on a patch. Also if you can hold off for a while, rumors have it that their should be a new storm coming out with more of a iphone feel. No more "sure click" or whatever they call it.

I also know a couple of people that have the curve and they also love it. No serious problems, other then the normal ones.

Get the Curve now or wait for the Storm 2, which does away with the clickable screen.
