Carrier Availability
Ok phone just has a couple bugs in it, the screen turns white sometimes and it gets dust under the screen, and the trackball stops working but other then that its a good strong phone.
This is the second Pearl I've had and so far no problems at all with the unit.
I've found it to be easy to type on and now struggle if I'm presented with anything other than a blackberry to type on when out of the office.
The only small downside relates to signal strength at times being poor but that's more the carrier than the phone.
Personally I prefer the smaller pearl sized phone than the curve sized opinions.
In my opinion, there is no other phone available that can beat the Blackberry, no mater which one you buy. The Peal is a great phone, but its not without its problems. The size is perfect, the keypad is very ergonomically designed. The word predict feature makes texting faster than a qwerty keypad once you learn it. It does need some bugs worked out. The Pearl freezes up, turns off, and helps it self to speaker phone when it likes. There has been an update in the software, maybe it will help. I don't regret buying it, but wont buy another one, I'd buy the Bold if carried buy Verizon.
