The BB browser (and mini opera for that matter) are pretty crude and some website won't load, and it would be nice if videos from news site, youtube, etc. would work, but I am pretty satisfied with the Pearl. Yes, I know its not a full-service desktop machine
. But my move from a plain Jane cell phone to a phone/email/internet device is a pretty big step in the right direction, and I give the Pearl a thumbs up.
