I might be sending back my Curve and need to delete it to make it brand new. How do I do that? In other words restore it to factory settings.

use .. surewipe
www.mobylo.com

Mobylo! SureWipe is designed to remove applications that do no uninstall properly. I believe that you are looking to remove any user data as well. From http://blackberryblog.com/tips/

"From the ribbon, select the 'Options' menu, proceed to the 'Security' option and then make sure that the 'Password' option is enabled. Choose 'Save' using the scroll wheel. When your Blackberry locks, enter the incorrect password ten times in a row. After doing so all the data on the handheld will be deleted."

Once you are in the Security section you can also just choose Wipe Handheld, type in "blackberry" and select OK.

That's even easier! From the device Options, select Security Options -> General Settings. Wipe Handheld is in the dropdown menu.

Just by reinstalling the os you are restoring factory settings just don't backup anything. It has happened to me ance or twice, there's nothing there except voicemail number.
