I have a Curve and I feel like it's a Windows computer that locks up once a week and I have to restart it, it's ok after the restart but it takes time right? Same with the Curve, at least once week I will take a pic and try to send it only to get "message failed to send". I have full bars and 1xEV st the time it just won't send it. If I "restart" with battery pull after a couple of minutes of waiting for it to come to life I can now send it and everything is good in Blackberry land but what a pain in the ass. So people with Tour how aften are you doing this if at all?

I haven't heard of anyone having problems with the tour like this. I haven't heard any problems actually. The OS on it works great. I think you would like it.

I had the Curve for ever,. and I think it was the lower memory capability that was stopping the send of your pictures-I had the same problem. I switched to the Tour, and have had no problems at all, no reboots, nada. I was in Bryce Canyon last weekend and send about a dozen pictures without a hitch.

How many programs do you have running on the curve at the same time?

Well, how do you close down programs?

I know it sounds silly, but that's the most common issues I see with blackberries. People will open up 7+ programs and keep them running in the background.

They are like computers in that if you hit the back button or the end key the program doesn't shut down, it Minimizes.

To close a program you have to hit the blackberry key and select close. Sometime when it starts giving you an error, go to your programs menu, hit the blackberry key and select "switch application"

There should only be Phone, Messages, BB Messenger, Browser, and home screen on there. any other programs are applications that keep running.
