I had never seen the logo before because, well, I’ve never saved a Web search before. As you can... (original story)

It’s a list, courtesy of RCR Wireless News, of the most popular handsets from the month of October. There have been some not-so-nice things said about the BlackBerry lately, from a study saying that the iPhone is more reliable to The New York Times’ not so great review of the Storm. Well, how about this one: The Curve was the most popular handset in October. I’m clearly biased in this regard. I’ve had a Curve for about two months now, and I absolutely love ... (original story)
