Recently purchased a BB Curve 9300 for myself. Why? I don’t know. It just happened. 
This phone is the entry level Blackberry phone. If you’re a starter like me, you can try this one first. The OS is OS 6. Higher models like the Bold and Torch use this OS too. So Curve users are lucky to be able to experience OS 6.
The apps I have in this phone are: Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo! Messenger, Google Talk, Windows Live Messenger, AOL. Because these are the only apps that I can use with my current plan. Not so much good apps unlike in iPhone.
Blackberry Messenger or BBM, I don’t use it that much as I have only about 4 friends and we are in different timezone. What I like about BBM is that you can send pictures and voice messages for free(included in the BB plan).
I don’t download/have games because i got my “Pouch” which has better games.
So this phone is mainly for social networking and text text text.
Nokia C3 and BB Curve 9300
The Nokia C3 is bigger in size. C3 has its own period button unlike Curve which you still need to press alt+m. Both has a 2megapixel camera. Both wifi-enabled. C3 wins when it comes to battery life. Curve only lasts 2 days. C3 lasts for 4 days.
That’s all I can think for now.
