I lost my old-school POS blackberry. I really did loose it, but probably subconsciously – on purpose. I ordered a new blackberry pearl and I’m glad I did.
When I was trying to decide which BB to buy, I was reading reviews all over the place and the most noticeable “issue” people had was with the keyboard. It’s touchy – and I wont say I haven’t gotten pissed off a few times – but for the most part I’m learning how to use it.
Not only is it a phone, and a killer email client (I get both my outlook and gmail on this phone) it also has a pretty nice camera, a video camera that doesn’t COMPLETELY suck, a MP3 player that will even play itunes music if it doesn’t have some sort of Apple/Itunes restriction on it (not entirely sure what it is, but only about 1/2 of my purchased ITunes music will load over into the Blackberry.)
I’m so happy with the photo quality I’m not going to bring a camera to Pubcon next month – I’m going to use my BB and bring an extra memory card (just in case as my lappy will download from a SD Card.) I’ll post some photos I took with the Pearl below.
Overall very happy with the purchase, only “downside” is the “hard to get used to” keyboard but I’m getting there. The trackball is a freaking stroke of genius – makes navigating and working the phone really really simple
