Yeah, I used the Curve GPS while we were on vacation. It was helpful, although you'd be surprised how willing it was to guide me to the Disney World Drapery Services office, but not to Disney World. The GPS service is $9.99/month extra I think if you...

A 3G Blackberry + nice introductory price would probably get me to "upgrade" from my MotoQ.

Or not. We'll see.

I'm looking at the Palm 755 vs. the Centro. It will be one or the other. I need to get to the store-the main diff is the 755 is ever so slightly larger, meaning the keypad (full qwerty on both) is ever so slightly larger. Both have the touch screen, and the great Palm software options that a (Blackberry) Curve just simply doesn't have, AND it's cheaper per month as already mentioned. Gonna hit the store probably tomorrow...

The Pearl changed my life... for the better.

Don't listen to these naysayers. The qwerty is still there, in a different form. You will get used to it after 7 days.... 14 if your a techno-phobe

I don't understand why anyone would get a Pearl. It is lacking all the reasons to get a blackberry.

I have a Blackjack II and I love it, sleek, small, and full key board, but I would go with the Blackberry Curve since I don't think Verzion has a Blackjacks

I have a Pearl and like it. Tried a MotoQ - went through 2 in a week - first one got a Firmware error within a week, and the 2nd one started sending the same text message to my friend every 2 minutes.

I'm jealous of all you Curve users. My contract isn't up till October and I'm too cheap to pay retail for the Curve if I can basically get it for like 50 bucks once my contract is up. I've had the Pearl for 2 years now...I got it when it first came out. It took a lot of getting used to it but I have grown to like it even though now its like a piece of junk after having dropped it about 50 times. The trackball barely even works or lights up

Go with the curve! Love mine. Small and full qwerty.

We've had 3G for years.

Got a curve a month ago and I love it. Almost left my laptop behind on vacation because the Curve would have been a decent substitute.

I've got a Curve. Love it. Great battery life, sleek and compact, easy to type on. The track ball took some getting used to but it's fine now.

Check with your network, though - 3G isn't in all areas yet. Supposed to be caught up by early next year, so if you don't live in a metropolitan area, it doesn't really make a big difference.

Yes....THAT MUST HAVE BEEN A LIVING HELL LIVING WITH THE OLD ONE.

I love my MotoQ with its 3G (comparatively blazing) speed on the internets, and the way it handles all of those newfangled streaming audio and video thingies.

Streaming media is lots clearer on 3G. Don't know how I survived for 2 years with a Pearl.

I can't remember what the verdict was.

I'm attracted by the size.....I must own a phone I can put in my pocket.
