This is my third Blackberry and the curve is by far the best, but I am getting dust between the screen and outside case. It is not that much but I am sure it will get irritating soon.

Anyone else getting dust under the screen of their curve? What have you done to solve it.

@Nick – I am using an Invisible Shield which is half cling on, half sticky.

It’s been less than a week, and dust has started entering into the LCD.

Searching on the web, it seems like this is a pretty common issue. Many people are opening up their devices to clean them, and others are constantly replacing them in the hopes that the next one will be dust free. But none of these options seems to solve the problem consistently.

Does anyone know if RIM has actually recognized this as an issue with the Curves, and if they are planning on correcting it?

The only problem with most open styled phones and keeping them in your pockets is that lint and dust can settle on the keypads/numbers/etc…

It’s a smarter to move to put the phone in a carrying case or buy some type of outer case if you do insist on keeping the phone in your pocket.

@Paul – Thanks for the info. I just got a BB Curve myself, and can’t see myself putting it in any case. I tried the sleeve it came with, but it becomes a bit too bulky, and it’s annoying to have to use two hands to get to your phone.

What brand vinyl shield did you use? Do they have adhesive on them, or the ’static cling’ type?

Thanks.

@Nick – I don’t carry it with anything. Just by itself in my pocket. Although I have applied an invisible/vinyl shield to it for scratch prevention.

Hi Paul,

What do you carry your cuve with ? Do you use the pouch it came with or some other accessory.

Great review of the Curve. I’ll definitely second the recommendation for Google Maps Mobile. I’m using it on my Treo 650 and it’s outstanding.

I just bought a blackberry curve. Coming from the motorola razor I could lock the application. Can you lock your text messages and the internet access?

I have yet to setup my Curve as a modem but I don’t think AT&T would have a problem with it, I think the box advertised phone-as-a-modem as a feature.

Paul,

Did you ever setup Tethering of your phone with your Mac. I was wondering if Cingular could detect it and charge you additional?

I bought a Invisible Shield for mine. Works great. No scratches!

Hi – I just got the Curve and i really love it. One small complaint or confusion – it seems to only deliver the mail about every 10 minutes. My old BB would send it all the time. I’m not much of a techno-head but i think that this is about the “Push”. Is there any way to adjust the settings on the Curve so that it does as my old one did and checks constantly?

let me know and how to adjust it.

thx

Dean
