The RIM BlackBerry Pearl 8130 improves on an already-impressive smartphone with the addition of GPS, video recording, and 3G support. ...
QuickTake:
Pros: The RIM BlackBerry Pearl 8130 adds built-in GPS, EV-DO support, and video-recording capabilities. The smartphone's Web browser is also improved, and it has a 2-megapixel camera. Sprint's version supports the carrier's various mobile entertainment services
Cons: The BlackBerry 8130's SureType keyboard takes some acclimation. Video playback isn't the smoothest, and the various wireless options can take a toll on the battery life.

Review: RIM BlackBerry Pearl 8130 (Verizon Wireless) consumer messaging phone
Comments:
Verizon Wireless' Pearl has VZ Navigator and 3G networking, but no music store? Is this the Pearl to beat, or just another on the string?...
Verizon Wireless' Pearl has VZ Navigator and 3G networking, but no music store? Is this the Pearl to beat, or just another on the string?...
QuickTake:
Pros: A quick Pearl with GPS and fast networking. Interface just a bit prettier. Very good call quality. Nice music options, even without a music store.
Cons: Keyboard still a bit cramped and slick. Interface could use a modern update. Web browser very basic compared to competition.
