Curve - primarily for the GPS and slightly bigger screen (1/2 inch in width).
Pearl - Superior keyboard. It is my go to device when out of the
office and I know I will be sending a lot of email and BBM's

I have 2 Pearls. One is a company phone (an 8110 with AT&T) and the other is a Verizon phone (an 8130). I love the sure type on the pearl (not that I do not like the full keyboard on other blackberrys), and the small form factor. I paid $49 for the 8130 at contract renewal and the 8110 I purchased for $69 from zendoo.com, a used phone reseller.
I initially received my Pearl as a gift from a friend n used it as my primary device. They I purchased a Curve about 6 months later. I resort to the Curve as my primary device but still use the Pearl for fun things. I load entertainment apps on the Pearl so it becomes my play device.

I only have my Bold at the moment, but I am planning to get a pearl flip for my wife when, as, and if AT&T ever releases it. She likes the flip format.
How many do you have? What is the primary use of each device? Did you get your secondary devices at a discount or at full-price?
For the record, I only have one : )
8310 (mine, work issued - free for me) & 8330 (GF's, personal - about $80/month and contract). Will be changing occupations soon and am loosing the 8310, but am looking at the 8900 or possibly a Storm if they make it a slider.

The Pearl is fully active with voice and messages.
The Curve with Wifi is my test bed and ready backup, just in case the Pearl should miss a beat. The Curve is my first choice for browsing the WAP forums, the screen size and keyboard have spoiled me.
