I've had a Curve for a year and a half now and I love it. I've played with the iPhone and hate it. I've never tried the Pre, but BB is the way to go as far as I am concerned!
They have the appworld now, so finding applications is a breeze...which I don't think you can do on Pre...yet.
If it's for personal use, I would go with Pre. Enterprise use, it depends on which BB you are referring to. Between Storm and Pre, Pre wins.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
