My wife's got one; she likes it. I haven't played with it much, but I prefer Windows Mobile to the Blackberry OS, which is just me being more used to one rather than the other. One thing I don't like about the pearl is not having a full keyboard, but you can get used to the wacky double-letter buttons I guess.

I have the Blackberry Curve which I recently got to replace the pearl. I can't tell you exactly why I like it better but I do. Some of the standard blackberry functions seem to be easier and more intuitive than with the Pearl but they are both good phones.

I've had mine for about two months. I love it. To be honest, I haven't gotten the blackberry service yet, so I can't attest to that. But as a phone, it's great.
