While on a call I can use GoogleMaps or use my browser (BB Browser or Opera) so I don't see why the 8900 wouldn't allow this. @Kyle: I have the 8320 and have never had this issue.

They've been pushing the upgrade to 3g handsets more and more for quite a while now... Releasing a new 2g handset doesn't make sense if you're doing this.

What exactly do you mean? While I do agree that all next gen phones should be able to have simultaneous phone/data capabilities, I have the 8900 and never have a problem with calls being forced to vm.

WHY is this not the focal point of everything that is wrong with a data device like a next gen Curve?!?!?!?! it communicates constantly, and yes this does drive a lot of calls to v-mail as a result. completely unacceptable to me. the 8900 won’t have “bad reception”, it just won’t have great reception in certain environments/areas. it won’t be a bad device, just not a great device.
