The Blackberry Pearl 8100 Smart Phone Review

[Capper]

Blackberry...The word conjures up images of yuppy geeks in business suites with bluetooth crammed in their ear, and Starbucks in hand. While never one for the casual text yacker or cell phone user, Blackberry is hoping their new Pearl will bridge the gap between the aforementioned casual user and professional PDA/Smart Phone geek.

Beware the curse of the Blackberry Pearl!!!!!!
Oh... wait... or maybe that was the Black Pearl....

Either way, that's one incredibly functional phone. Too much so for my taste, but thanks for the review!

It's an awesome idea, but maybe just ahead of it's time? Maybe down the road these types of features will be as common on mobile phones and UMPC's as they are on regular internet services.
