Hi Everyone, I am new to this site, I am going to order my new Pearl 8130 tomorrow and I can't wait to get it. I probably will have a lot of questions so I am really happy I found this site. Everyone seems really helpful. I was wondering, is a Blackberry Pearl really hard to use and does it take a long time to learn? Thanks.
Welcome to CB & BB. There's a bit of a learning curve, but you should find the BB user interface to be intuitive... and we're all here to help if you need it.
I just got the Verizon Pearl a couple of weeks ago and I can't imagine how I ever lived without it.
Just make sure you have a couple hours to sit down and play with it after you get it...don't know what phone you are switching from, but if this is your first BB, it's a whole new world. If you have questions, just search the forums on here. That's what I did and I found answers to everything.
I thought for sure I would hate SureType and wasn't going to get a Pearl because of it. However, after I played with it in the store, I realized I loved it and could actually type way faster than I did on my former phone which had a full keyboard.
you'll love the pearl. won't take long to learn how to use suretype, either. like everyone else said, if you have questions search the forums or post it. you've come to the right place! enjoy your berry
