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.
curve. full keyboard, bigger screen.
Have owned both as well, curve hands down
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:D
I agree with you on the keyboard man...:cool:
i say curve
There are so many threads about people asking similiar questions. And in everyone the majority always is go with Curve. Btw that's what I recommend.

But you still responded didn't you?...:cool:
Hands Down--- CURVE!:D
Please reread. To me it looks like I did.
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.
Geez AG. Lets not get picky now. You one of the nicest people in here. I like you a lot. You helped me out so much when I first got my curve. Please stay on the OP's question. 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.
PS. I even voted for you for being the most helpful
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.
My wife bought the pearl, cuz its purty........that lasted 12 hours. She is a curve fanatic!
