T&A: The Business Insider released news yesterday stating that the BlackBerry Curve actually sold more units than the Apple iPhone in the U.S. in the first three months of 2009.

According to research firm NPD Group, RIM’s BlackBerry Curve 8300 series took the number one spot mainly because it was on sale at more carriers and had a buy-one-get-one-free Verizon Wireless promo.  While the Apple iPhone takes up the second spot in the results list, RIM’s other BlackBerry models - such as the Storm and Pearl - took the third and fourth placings respectively.
