I am currently without my phone since I lost my Razr. I would like a new phone which also lets me browse the net, check e-mail, and use Windows Messenger. I realize every phone has good and bad points. But, can anyone make recommendations between the Pearl, Blackjack, and Treo 750?

The 750 and Blackjack are high speed phones, if you plan on doing a lot of internet browsing this could come in handy. Technically however they also require a 39.99/month data connect plan. The Pearl is a simpler possibly more user friendly phine if your not accustomed to windows mobile 5.0, and you can get unlimited email via BIS for only 29.99/month. I would say the form factor for the pearl would also be more comfortable to someone not used to PDA devices as well.

Get the 8525 or 750 I think they are better all around. The samsung feels cheap and the pearl isn't that great for multimedia.

I would personally go with the pearl especially if you are going to be doing a ton of email/ texting.

The sure type on the Blackberries is amazing!!! I said about 3k text a month and quite a few emails... and I am currently using the 7130. The only thing I miss is the camera.

Plus, the Pearl has Blackberry Messenger. Way cool
