I use 2 have the pearl now I have the curve (t-mobile) they r both GREAT phones! But I absolutely LOVE the curve! Once u buy a blackberry u will never go back. DO NOT BUY THE DASH! (Sorry charles) I bought it once n it was HORRIBLE!(I ended up giving it 2 a friend) It literally takes 6 steps 2 make one text msg! If u miss a phone call it doesn't beep or light up, which means ur constantly checking 2 see if u missed a call. Hope this helps!
