How to Hook Up a BB Curve to a PS3

The BlackBerry Curve is a smart phone that has the ability to connect to computers and other devices like the PlayStation 3. The mass storage mode on the BlackBerry Curve allows it to connect to the PS3 like an external hard drive would. When you connect the Curve to your PS3, you will recognize the icon under each of the media options on the home screen. You can use your PS3 controller to play music, videos, or pictures off the Curve.
