Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
The Curve 8900 is cool and all, but "hottest BlackBerry"? Come on.
Absolutely. What model would you say is hotter? The Storm?
Actually, after fiddling with all three handsets, I'd give that honor to the Bold. The 8900 has a slightly nicer screen, but the Bold's form factor and keyboard are far more comfortable (your claim from your comparison article that the 8900 feels fresher design-wise honestly baffles me, since it has more or less the same old Curve keyboard, and since the "newer" design cues are mainly non-functional ones). And of course the term "hottest" doesn't seem seriously applicable here in 2009 to a 3G-less smartphone; I know T-Mobile doesn't have 3G anyway, but that merely raises another issue not in the 8900's favor here in the US: its carrier.
If you put an 8900 and a Storm side by side, you can see that they share common ID elements -- it's clear that this is RIM's design direction going forward. The Bold's ID has been discontinued.
Be that as it may, the Bold's keypad and ergonomics strike me as being a rather sizeable improvement over the various iterations of the Curve, the 8900 included.
