w00t! Embargoed review time! I love these nights! Here at CrackBerry.com we always love our BlackBerry smartphones. Heck, even when we're a little *less* in love with a particular device we still gush over BlackBerry newness. Once you get bit by the CrackBerry Addiction it's hard to look at a new BlackBerry and not get butterflies in your stomach.
That's why I love it when embargoes lift and reviews of new devices flood the Internet. 12:01am hits and BANG... you have enough reading to keep you going until 12 noon! Reading all the different reviews that surface provides a ton of insight - you can tell who is used to hardcore BB abuse, you get the viewpoint of those who are potentially 'fans' of other platforms and and you see a bunch of smartphone eyecandy... it's a ton of fun. At the end of the day you just want to get the device in your hands and make your own judgement call.
When it comes to the BlackBerry Curve 8900, a whack load has already been said about it on this site. I first reviewed the Curve 8900 (Javelin) back in September, and we followed up with another in-depth review the day it hit Rogers in December. But now the 8900 is finally coming to the good 'ole US of A via T-Mobile, which means the review flood gates are about to pour open. To make it easier to read all of the varying opinions, you can follow the links below. We'll keep updating the list as more reviews surface.

I can't wait! I already bought accessories for it. Feb 11th can't come fast enough!
I ordered my 8900 on Friday, received it on Monday and have been in love ever since. I had a pearl previously and wore out 2 trackballs, so I thought I would switch to a touch screen. I was looking at the Storm or the G1 and came across info on this phone. TMobile has me hooked for another 2 years! I really like the full keyboard, updated media player and wi-fi (among other things). This is a beautiful phone with great functionality and I definitely recommend it, highly!
Kevin, thanks for pulling these together. Your blogging skills continue to impress. Thanks, again.
