I know this is late but oh well, The Concept of a Small blackberry is great i love the compact size as well as the 1.3 Megapixel Camera with flash, however the Keyboard takes alot of getting use to, and unless you clean the trackball regularly it seems to freeze up, overall i love the phone but a few bugs to work out

I love my blackberry pearl. it has everything i wanted in a phone plus a littl e bit more. the drawbacks I have are picture messaging/emails and having to download each one individually and the fact I cant do videos. which are both essential features in my book. but all in all, i would definently recommend the phone
