RIM have brought the ever popular Blackberry Curve range right up to date with the addition of 3G connectivity on the conveniently named Blackberry Curve 3G.

Its popularity is thanks to the high data exchange rates, and this latest Blackberry really does benefit from its inclusion, especially given the brands reputation as great messaging devices. G coverage is fairly widespread, but if you do find yourself out of range, there are able replacements in waiting in the form of GPRS and EDGE which both offers good results.

The Curve 3G sports a good quality screen, perfect for displaying your online information as well as a host of other media. At a resolution of 320 x 240, clarity is good without being outstanding. The unit allows for users to select their own font size, perfect should you find the 2.46" display a touch on the small side.
