RIM BlackBerry Pearl Review

Posted on 2006-09-07 17:09:39 by LSDsmurf

As thin (0.6 inches) as a closed RAZR V3m and as narrow (2 inches) as a standard candy-bar phone, the Pearl is very easy to slip into your pocket. It also looks extremely stylish, in black with chrome accents. BlackBerry partisans will immediately notice one major difference: After six years, RIM has ditched the scroll wheel in favor of a glowing trackball set right below the screen. That's a bold move, but give it a chance; I really like it. Not only is the trackball well positioned for one-handed use, you can finally move the cursor horizontally without resorting to a key combination.
