    My carrier has both of these for the same price right now so I was wondering which one should I get. A friend has the pearl but I am not real crazy about the size of the screen. Is the curve easier to read?

    So which one would you get?

    As a Pearl owner, it is a great device. I definitley recommend you getting the Curve though...

    I have both and I like the curve better. Its screen is much easier to read.

    i personally prefer the curve's full-size keyboard over the pearl's suretype keypad. and the curve's screen is a little bigger, but the pearl is a more portable phone. it really is personal preference.

    If for the same price, the Curve. No question.

    Curve gets my vote too. You just can't beat a full physical qwerty.

    Still have both, Still like both.

    Pearl - Better keyboard (IMO) and SureType
    Curve - Slightly bigger screen, GPS

    If you can try them both out, you should. That
    will tell you which fits you better.

    I don't like SureType and the smaller keyboard, so it was no question for me: I got the Curve and I don't regret it at all. I couldn't go from my full QWERTY 8700c to a non-QWERTY kbd. The larger screen is nice as well.

    had both, love the curve and recommend it but for me i was able to type faster with the suretype on the pearl. only had the curve for a little over a month so maybe i will get faster But i definitely like it better then the pearl so far especially the size of the screen

    And what you will also notice is that the majority of those who say Curve have
    one and have not actually used a Pearl in any extensive way. Not a whole
    lot of objectivity there.

I did answer the question and don't believe that I should of been criticized for not answering the question the way you were expecting me to.

    Curve, the design of the curve makes it a winner automatically with screen size and qwerty keyboard.

    I wasn't really being picky. The point was a lot of times in things like this people
    vote for what the know. If all they have used is a Curve that's the answering
    you're going to get. Sorry if you felt I was being specifically critical of you.
    Definitely was not my intent.

    And thank you.

    I owned a pearl---of course it has the same bb interface, but the curve is definately alot better in terms of internet, typing, screen size, memory, ect... I had alot of problems with my pearl, but haven't really had any problems with my curve so that's why I vote curve over pearl.

    Use my buddies pearl every tuesday and I just can't get used to the small screen and suretype. I guess I'm spoiled with a full qwerty.
    Curve FTW

    Curve because of larger screen and full qwerty keyboard. Plus I feel it's a perfect size and shape for a phone.
