Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Pearl to be sure! Not just for business
Got this on the new o2 contract, 600mins with 1000 texts for £35 a month on the basis of 18 month contract - not too shabby for what you get I feel, unlimited downloads and MSN are my favourites.
I was aware that BlackBerry was supposed to be for business but it works brilliantly if you're a student too! Checking Uni emails, Facebook and MySpace is quick and easy - the email Push system is really reliable and easy to handle. Fair enough the keyboard layout on the handset is a it wacky but you do get the hang of it after a day.
Best example of it being particularly useful recently was when a friend and I went to visit the football museum in Preston, the GPS maps on there are excellent- easy to operate and uncomplicated to read...just ... Read More:


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Well its the best mobile for business I have used!
Believe me, I think I must have used most mobile on the market some time or the other. Okay that's an exaggeration the does feel like it as I get through two mobiles a year. I currently use and I find and this Blackberry Pearl. If you compare the iPhone with a Blackberry Pearl the Blackberry Pearl wins hands down, though the Blackberry Pearl is for business use, I tend to use it more for both personal and business use of then I use the iPhone. It is compact and has stacks of useful features with one or two eccentric featres like the rollball and the two letters to each button making texting a bit taxing but pretty easy after a bit of practice.


I find the phone quick to start up ie within 20 seconds. On start it shows my unread ... Read More:


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not even useful as a wheel chock!
The fact that the Pearl has a 240 page user manual says it all. This is probably the most un-user-friendly device produced in the last 15 years. If you are not a techno-wizard who regularly devotes all waking moments to playing with your devices, leave it on the shelf. The staff in my office have given it one star as no stars was not an option. Finally it is too small even to use as a wheel chock if your handbrake fails.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great business phone
Ok if you want this as a personal phone and get around 2 emails a week it really is not much use as it does not have all the special features that you would find on a Nokia N95 say. I wonder why you would buy it if you dont intend to use its business attributes??

As a business phone it is superb, its sleek, attractive easy to use and really does compliments my work as I am constantly on the move.

So all in all its a great phone!!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I think you are all clowns
I can't belive people are rubbishing this phone, some people who can't adapt to new technology should just accept it and not blame the product for thier lack of intelligence

great phone
fast internet
sleek
cheap
what more could you want
