I'm not a huge fan of myspace, but it works really well with the helio devices. Helio only streams youtube videos encoded in h264 b/c flash media would kill the battery. Only a tiny portion of youtube videos are there, but it's still cool to check out. The blackberry is much more flexible with the 3rd party apps which helio doesn't seem to officially support. That's not a huge issue for me though because every time I bought an app for the pearl, it to replace or enhance functions the pearl already has like paying text msg rates for aim or getting a better media player
The web browsing on the helio to me seems as fast as the pearl browser and the speed is only noticeably better when loading video
I can already tell that the pearl is better for direct access but i'm a heavy mutlimedia phone user so I won't mind pressing more buttons for more functionality
