But my rollerball seems to have died tonight.... well its on its way out anyway. Couldnt scroll up and after some pursuasion it did scroll up but feels lumpy and still plays up.

Is this a common issue with the BB Pearl?

Other than this issue which im sure will be sorted with a call to O2 tomorrow... Ive loved the Pearl and hope to have it back working propery very soon!

It needs cleaning. Clean it.

Some threads and with pictures are on the board here, look in the 8100 section.

Cool thanks for the advice.

just given it a good blow and seems a bit smoother now.

If you decide to take apart trackball and cleand it. I cant stress enough how carefull you have to be. San Francisco had posted some good instructions with pictures but I cant seem to find them. Maybe you can I found his instructions after I followed some garbage one. Again use the proper tools and procedure and you'll come out happy
