Default what can i do with my old pearl 8110

hey all, a couple months ago i got a new phone (curve 8530). this was an upgrade from my previous phone, a pearl 8110. my question to you is this, is there anything fun/cool i can do with my old pearl? i obviously no longer have service and have switched providers (att to sprint) so im wondering what my options are. according to blackberry's web site it has gps (i never knew it) so is it possible to use it as a gps device? any other thoughts? thanks guys

If you still have any games on there, use it to play games. Use the camera and save pictures there, save music there, etc. Anything that would slow down your main phone. That is, of course, if you plan on carrying around both BBs with you.

Hey good advise thanks. I forgot about the camera! I'm pretty sure my pearl has a better camera than my 8530 which is pretty sad. I know my pearl has a flash at least unlike my curve!

I think the only cam difference is the flash. Both have a 2mp cam though. Yeah, other than using it as a media hub, there's not too much I can thibk to do.

If you had Sprint when you had your Pearl, that Pearl is the 8130.
The only difference is that the 8130 is the CDMA model, since Sprint is CDMA.

Is the 8130 like the 8330 whereas it has more on-board memory?

no, i was actually on att when i had my pearl. im almost positive its a 8110 but i could be wrong. to my knowledge there is no wifi and its dark red if that helps to identify it.
