I actually like both the Pearl and the Curve, but I prefere the keyboard, and bigger screen, and with ATT i get the GPS. I like the fit in your hand better with the Curve also.

You're only switching because you HEARD it's better? I'd recommend doing a little research, and/or trying it out (do you have a friend who has one that you can play with?) before you make the decision. You may find you don't like it as much as the pearl, or you may like it more.

They are really the same phone (if it's the same carrier). Only difference is the curve has a full QWERTY key pad and the Pearl has a sure type.

Some Curves don't have a video recorder (sucks), but other than that great phone.......now that 8330 curve has all the functionality of the pearl with vid record (great)

All Curves are capable of recording video, and when OS 4.5 is released,
they will all be able to do so.

I have both, and the Curve in my opinion is far superior. Everytime I have to use my Pearl, it is like learning to use the phone all over again. Don't get me wrong, the Pearl was a great phone, but when I moved to the Curve, it opened my eyes. Full keyboard and larger screen are just some of the features that I like.

I assume he is wanted to know the advantages over his current device, the Pearl 8100

I would say QWERTY, larger screen...
