Anyone D/L the new Opera Mini Browser 4.1 beta?

I was gonna wait for feedback, but I think Imma give it a try now, it says on the website it stands alone and doesnt overwrite yoru existing Opera Browser

@ that curve for sprint being black

 

[rwfanatic]

That black Curve looks dope, I'm so jealous that I still don't have one. This Pearl is not the business!

 

[wraith aka invincible]

what dont you like about the pearl?

 

[rwfanatic]

That it doesn't have a full qwerty keyboard

When does the Curve come to Sprint?

 

[vabigpoppa]

the curve for sprint drops on the 17th for online sales, and the 20th in the stores i think.....im pretty sure it will be that deep gunmetal grey sprintusually has instead of black. Im sure it will still look good though. I can finally retire my 2 1/2 year old ppc6700

Do you know what the price and plans are going to be?

 

[theafricandream]

I wanna get the BB Curve 8330, but I have T-Mobile though. If I get an unlocked one, will I be able to use it with my T-Mobile service?

 

[rwfanatic]

To use an unlocked phone lets say an Curve from Sprint for example: Who do you call to have it unlocked? Sprint or T-Mobile? and If you're gonna use it forT-Mobile then how can you do that if I thought that Sprint doesn't use sim cards?

 

[gunna get it]

RW, You can get it unlocked in various places, shops, even online.
There's a store around my way that unlocks any branded phone for $30

I wanna get the BB Curve 8330, but I have T-Mobile though. If I get an unlocked one, will I be able to use it with my T-Mobile service?


yep

*Edit

My Bad I was wrong, I didnt realize it was only a Sprint release

8330 wont work for T-Mobile. The 8330 is CDMA (Verizon, Sprint) and T-Mo's a GSM carrier

 

[rwfanatic]

So I guess that all sim cards are the same size no matter the carrier?

 

[vabigpoppa]

sprint phones do not have sim cards since they are cdma

 

[rwfanatic]

So Sprint can not be used on a T-Mobile network? Are they the only company that doesn't use sim cards?

I think i read somehwere $179 w/ a 2 year contract and $100 mail in rebate, so probably around $549 retail w/o contract or rebate

 

[hollowpoints]

8330 wont work for T-Mobile. The 8330 is CDMA (Verizon, Sprint) and T-Mo's a GSM carrier. Unless you specifically want GPS, you'll have to get the 8310which is AT&T's version of the Curve and have it unlocked. Otherwise, you can get the 8320(?) from T-Mo, which has wi-fi and won't need to beunlocked.

For whoever asked, the Sprint Curve is gonna be $179 w/ 2yr contract and rebates.

I'm still mad as hell it took Verizon this long to get the Curve- I don't wanna pay full price for it ( I got an 8830 when my renewal came up) andAT&T's giving Curves out for $79

 

[gunna get it]

word? Sprint deaded the $99 everything included deal ?

 

[vabigpoppa]

nah they still have that $99 plan, the $179 is just for the phone.

 

[kaimel rule]

Did I see something about the new OS? Where is it???

 

[zeus23]

I just found a Blackberry Pearl yesterday, I don't know what I should do with it... not a big BlackBerry person..
