The Curve 3G claims to be a more music-minded 'Berry compared to Curves of yesteryear. It has the same external media controls as found on the 8530, and I really don't see any big jump in terms of usability and features.

The basic music application appears to be mostly unchanged from other 'Berries. It lets you select from the songs, artists, genres, albums, playlists, etc. There is an equalizer available for users to alter the sound, You have to hit the BlackBerry key to find it, under the options selection. It offers 12 equalizer pre-sets to adjust the sound to your tastes. There's also an "audio boost" option that raises the maximum volume of playback when used with headphones.

You can play or pause/stop the music with the trackpad, as well as skip forward and backward tracks. As with most media players, album art is displayed if it is tagged to the song. Again, the BlackBerry key pulls up a big menu of options that can be altered during playback, such as sending the music to a Bluetooth headset, setting the current song as a ringtone, and others.

Music can be side-loaded directly onto a microSD card. It can also be drag-and-dropped through USB mass storage mode, or synced via BlackBerry Desktop Manager (which supports iTunes).
