I bought the new blackberry pearl and I'm in love. This thing stomps on the sidekick 3. I had a friend who bought the sk3 and she hates it. I got her to by a pearl!

I've had almost every PDA/Sidekick type phone out there. My last phone was the treo 650.. Great PDA horrible phone! Now I have the sidekick 3, LOVE IT! The reason I would never get the blackberry is because the keyboard keys are too close together. The sidekick has been the only phone that I can easily type and use AIM and email without typing the wrong letters when I type fast. I'm not saying the Pear is a mad phone. I'm just saying it's not better than the sidekick in every way! For me the sidekick is better. Plus I have a mac and I don't want anything to do with windows mobile :-D

I work for T-Mobile as a customer service rep. so I get to know the difference between the phones and services better than the actual sales persons. So in my opinion the BackBrry pearl walks all over the sk3. first off the sk3 takes up to 15min to send and recive e-mail the pearl takes only a split second to send an recive e-mails. the pearl is also a myfaves phone, the sk3 isn't. the sk3 doesn't even have the technology to even add the myfaves option yet. last but not least, the pearl ways only a miere 3.2 ounces while the sk3 wietghs 7 ounces. so for size function capabilities and price the pearl pounds on the sk3.

I allready have a sidekick 3 with a prepaid account was bought a pearl as a gift. as far as looks and feel im all for the sk3 but I am allready used to the sk3 and have upgraded the mini sd. I aint to sure if the prepaid works on a prepaid but the phone is damn sexy. I kind a feel like a little kid with the sk3 and the damn thing never shuts the fuck up. Way to much VIBE and sounds, but I aint to experienced with the pearl. Get um both.
