Member Fr0zen over at BBF managed to get his hands on a BlackBerry Curve running RIM's new OS version 4.3 and was kind enough to post some screen captures.

There appear to be a lot of cool little improvements and tweaks that should make this a welcomed upgrade. Items to note:

• Voice Notes Recorder integrated into the Media Manager
• Playlists function added to the Music player
• A revamped look and improved functionality to Email/Calendar/Appointment menus
• The ability to differentiate between SMS and Email inboxes when viewing together
• Menu View options (short & long)
• Menu Option for OTA wireless upgrades
• Fr0zen also claims the web browser opens web pages much faster (excellent!)

You can view more screenshots here. Hopefully 0S 4.3 will be available for download in the weeks ahead.
