Having used the palmOS since April 1996 and WinMob's several times, I totally 
disagree with your assessment on the Blackberry.  It is so much easier to use 
even with their menus.  Why?  Because of the trackball.  Simple to use!

I did thoroughly check a BB Curve very recently and would say that BBs are 
still MAINLY business oriented. I could live with one, but still would not 
BUY one myself, so if one was given by my company I would probably live with 
two smartphones for a while (yuck), a BB and my Treo.

I did buy the Curve for my boss, in fact. For him, it was the best choice 
(and I am very happy with my choice, and so is he).

But it is true that they're trying to be more mainstream, more 
consumer-friendly.

Still, while their UI is good, their menu system sucks. It is PAINFUL for a 
PalmOS user to navigate. Even WinMo users will complain... :-p

So if RIM is serious about making their BBs mainstream, they must improve 
the friendliness of their OS. Soem action take so many keystokes and menu 
navigation, it's insane.
