Hi there everyone,

My name is alex and I live in Oregon. Right now I am a sidekick 3 user. But on the 24th of this month I will be ordering the blackberry pearl. My cousin as well. We went into a tmobile store and played with it and we like it alot better then the sidekick. Just seems to offer more, plus its small.

Im gonna have to get used to the sure type, but I am excited.

I thought of waiting for the curve but not sure when it will be out and what the price will be.

How do you all like the pearl? Ever had a sidekick 3 and able to compare it to the pearl?

I went from an MDA to the Blackberry Pearl and wish I'd gotten the Pearl to start with. Once you get used to the keypad layout while typing, it really is much better than a full QWERTY keyboard because the device itself is smaller.

There is also the wing coming out, but for the most part people seem to be very happy with the pearl.
