Which Blackberry Should I Get?

I need a new cell phone and I've been putting off buying a new one, mostly because I don't know enough about them to make an informed decision.

I'm torn between the Blackberry Bold, the Curve 8900 and the Curve 8300 (I don't think the 8900 is available in the US).

Does anybody have any of these phones? If so, what are the pros and cons?
 
The 8300 is outdated, so your attention should be on the other two. If you don't need 3g, definitely go with the 8900.
 
8900 is the newest and is not yet available in the US but will be soon through AT&T I believe. It is essentially the bold, minus 3G. Dependent on your cell reception you can make a choice there.

The 8300 is obviously older, lacks 3G and will be cheaper than both the 8900 and Bold.

Personally I'd get the Bold. Want it as a replacement to my iPhone but if you lack 3G where you are then its almost pointless. I believe the 8900 and Bold have the same OS as well.
 
If you can get the newest phone out there, I would get the Bold. Can you get the Storm? That's the one I would love to get. I have the 8830 and I like it a lot but I would love to get the touch type phone.

I think all of our providers have 3G. Rogers Wireless does, and that's who I'm with. We've had the 8900 for awhile now.

Sounds like I WON'T get the 8300 ... so now it's down to the Bold and the 8900.
 
OK, thanks :) I wasn't really thinking about it because I don't like getting "The new kid on the block". I don't like being a guinea pig cell phone tester :p
