You sound just like me. I have to use Nextel cause of work and everytime I go into the store (which is often) I ask about the curve. I’m high on the waiting list as well. The only thing is that they’re telling me that it won’t be out til sometime in December which seems like forever from now. I can’t believe we don’t have better phones to chose from, you would think that Nextel would want to keep up with the technology of other providers, but I was told that Nextel is mainly business so I guess they don’t feel the need. Which is bad news to its subscribers.
