Howdy ya'll.

After a full night of Relay For Life (only team to go platinum!) and a few long days, I can say that the Blackberry Pearl is really really tight.

Few notes:

-The data plan is $30 a month, not great, not bad.
-Camera is really good, but when uploading to FB it has to resize them, and they come out looking worse then they actually are (I'll post comparisons soon).
-YouTube works on it. Uh oh. I wish though that you could tilt the phone on it's side and watch the video, opposed to having to watch it in portrait and have bunch of black space on the screen.
-Facbook application (get this Andy!). Uh oh.
-Free Google Maps has that neato triangularization feature that's on the iPhone.
-Keypad requires getting used to, but it's quite handy and well done.
-I'm having trouble uploading mp3's to it using my mac, I'd love to use them as custom ring tones.
-This thing is a chick magnet, 'nuff said. They love the game on there and the form factor.
