Advantages: The storage, the size, the style, the list is endless....
Disadvantages: The camera and the scroll bar when the phone is locked
I love my blackberry pearl. It is my favourite phone thus far. It is stylish, came free with my dolphin orange contract and its smaller than the regular blackberry.
To start with I will admit that there were a few issues getting used to the QWERTY keypad (even though i use a computer daily) and the roller ball 'enter' and 'move' button. However, after a couple of weeks it gets easier and now i wouldnt return to any of my old phones.
The internet on it is relatively fast for a mobile and connects anywhere which is useful if you dont know your bank balance and need to check when shopping etc.
The ability to add emails, word, powerpoint etc is very useful and I have no complaints there. Well alright the fact that I cant figure out how to turn the tone off when an email comes through is pretty irritating. But thats more my laziness than the phone itself.
The thing I would note as the main problem with the phone dependant on what you are buying it for is the camera quality. I tried to take some pictures of the snow and it was very pixelated and dull looking.
Finally the last issue i would comment on is the scroll bar when the phone is locked. I have had my phone since september and have called emergency services 3 times now as the second option on the scroll bar is to call them and the first option after that is to agree to call. This is very frustrating as i do not like to waste their time.
Summary: 4 and a half stars.
