First to recommend

Once again I join the ranks of fans of an already popular product instead of recommending it first. But I have no shame :) !

Verizon has been upping their phone selection recently, and their latest entry is the Blackberry Pearl 8130. This is the real Pearl - instant email to and from your phone, 3rd-party applications can be installed, and it comes with a calender, web browser, etc. It also has Bluetooth, but only for certain things: You can use a headset, send a picture or output the audio, but that's about it. There is a cool built in GPS, BUT Verizon (gotta love them) disabled it - it only works if you pay them $9.99 a month.

This is my first blackberry and I am very happy with it. Be warned though - it does take a few days to get used to the menus and all.

Overall, slim, cool and super functional - what more could you want in a phone?

Currently $199 with a new 2 year contract.

This Pearl is a great phone, I wish Verizon would upgrade it a little faster, but as a phone and data device it;s great.

I've had it for a couple of months and no problems. With a 4g micro SD card, makes for a great music player.

I was kinda anti-blackberry.. Well I didn't want one until I felt I was important enough to have one. Now with the success of the site, its essential and one of my most coveted gifts from my boyfriend. Its a computer so it has its imperfections, but a Blackberry is a must for anyone on the go. I love the pearl because it fits into my petite hands perfectly.

Great phone. No, it's not the iPod, but it's a great phone for checking email, surfing the web, chatting, texting whatever. It's not that big, it's not a flip phone and have not had any problems yet. Great phone all around.

I love the small size of the blackberry! I also love the ability to buy a memory card to store music. The software is great when connecting to a PC.
