    Hiii!
    I just got my Blackberry Pearl, and I love it! But I haven't a clue how to use any thing, it took me FOREVER to figure out e-mail (turns out I had to call verizon to delete the previous owner off the BIS).

    ANYWAY, I am an AIM addict, but when I tried to install it, it said my phone isn't compatible with AIM. what can i do to fix this!?

    Thank for all the help in advance

    I do believe VZW provides their own AIM app which uses SMS. So if you don't have unlimited SMS, do not use this. If you have an unlimited data plan, I suggest Beejive (the crowd favorite), or Webmessenger.

    I don't have an unlimited data plan, i only have "web and email"... does this mean no instant messaging for me?

    welcome to CB, if you don't have an unlimited plan, I suggest you strongly look into it. It will come in handy when you get used to the phone.
