Blackberry - Pearl Smartphone Cell Phone Review

Hmmmm, where to start with this thing.....I love it and the best part about mine, I won it. I worked for T-Mobile for over 3 years and I am glad I did when it was launched. I got to go to a Blackberry celebration! Ok, sorry to make you jealous, now to the review. I just recently did a handset exchange on mine due to the common trackball not going up. I am glad that T-Mobile took care of me and I set up the new one already.
This device is so cool. You may not be able to take videos with it, but you can store them on your BB. It will hold movies on there and Handango.com does have a conversion software. I also love the Maps feature that was in it. It is very accurate and has helped me out of a jam a few times when I was lost.
I read some reviews not liking the camera on it. I find that you do have to have a steady hand and using the side button where you activate the camera to take pix instead of the trackball will get you a much better quality photo.
A must have is a memory card!!!! You will find the BB will run sluggish and slow - getting that lovely hourglass we all know and hate.
I noticed a review about the the front screen getting scratched....that is why I put a screen protector on mine as well as a gel skin to keep the slippery sucker from falling on the ground less often. Can you feel me? I could go on, but I am tired and wanna kick back. If anyone has any questions, contact me.
