New phone suggestions

I bought the original HTC Touch when it came out. I destroyed one and the second one I had was a complete POS. It was extremely laggy and would randomly enter camera mode while I was texting. I now have the option (I possess both and am going to sell one on ebay) to have either an HTC Touch Diamond (which seems very laggy as my old Touch did) or a Blackberry Curve. The HTC has a really cool ball game that I could sit on the crapper at work for like an hour and just play. The BB has MUCH clearer speaker and call quality but I can't stand the BB software, maybe just because it's my first one. Any suggestions?

Please Help!!

Mike

Re: New phone suggestions

Sounds like you were using the stock rom which is a pos. Try flashing a custom rom.

I would get the Diamond. The volume of the phone can be edited with a simple file called AudioPara.CSV. And get off the stock ROM.

Re: New phone suggestions

Ok I'll return the Blackberry to the sprint store and keep this Diamond. I don't know what flash the ROM means but I'll try to read up on it here.

Thanks for your help all!

Mike

Re: New phone suggestions

Nevermind I think I'll keep the BB, this whole flashing thing sounds way too difficult.
