3. RIM BlackBerry Curve 8330 (Sprint)

Editors' rating: 8.0

The good: The RIM BlackBerry Curve 8330 offers integrated GPS, Bluetooth 2.0, and EV-DO. The compact smartphone continues to offer solid messaging capabilities and includes support for a number of features that the Verizon model does not.

The bad: The BlackBerry Curve 8330 lacks Wi-Fi, and call quality wasn't the greatest.

The bottom line: Despite some spotty call quality, the RIM BlackBerry Curve 8330 for Sprint is a great messaging device with the bonus of EV-DO and integrated GPS. Plus, it offers more services than the Verizon BlackBerry Curve.
