I'm about to buy a phone. I've narrowed it down to these two. They are within $50 of each other. Which one would you pick? Which one would make guys bow down and girls take off their panties at the very sight of the phone? Either of these would serve my needs just fine, i.e. web serving, news getting, etc.

BlackBerry Pearl: http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Detail...91-e1f1dc91bc0d

BlackBerry 8700g? http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Detail...3f-8d6c6ea6baf9

Thanks!

 

Dont do it. All the rebates are pure BS. Friend of mine fot ripped off by them.

 

Thanks! I decided not to go with rebates, but to upgrade.

 

These are really 2 different devices. I have a 7100 which uses the same suretype keypad as the perl. Basically, it's great if you use it as a phone and to read email, but it is a pain if you send a lot of messages. Keep in mind, with a regular keyboard blackberry, if you get one letter off, people will usually be able to tell what you were typing. On a suretype keyboard, one letter off will get you a whole other word.

 

I like the Pearl, another engineer in my dept. has one they look really cool!

i ended up buying the w810i.

 

I will go for the Pearl, just because your whole 3 votes indicate I should. No, really! I really liked the Pearl when I held it at a store, as opposed to the cheap-feeling of the 8700g. The Pearl is really nice! If no one strips their panties over the Pearl, I guess I'll just have to strip my own and make do with it. Thanks for the votes!
