Ok this will be the second expensive phone I have bought, the first being the SE S710a. I have T-Mobile, and might be looking for a smart phone. One of my friends has a brand new Blackberry Pearl that he said he would sell me for $175.

Here is what I want:

At least 1.3MP camera the more the better
Video Camera Support
Memory Card Support ... more than 128MBs preferably a couple GBs
Internet Browser doesn't have to be WiFi but that would be nice
Qwerty keyboard might be nice if it isn't huge
Dont really want a touchscreen
Video and Music playback with a loud speaker
MP3 ringtone support
Some sort of program to type notes/documents
Game support

Not sure what else

But my friend said he would sell me that Blackberry pearl for $175 this weekend if I want it. Does it have all that? And how much is the data plan thingy

Also I was looking at SE W850i's but dont know if I want to pay that much.
 
The Pearl does not have a QWERTY keyboard, it uses SureType, which takes some getting used to.

I suggest you do some research on your own as you can find the answers to most of your questions. Also look at the BlackBerry Forum (http://www.blackberryforums.com/). They have a separate forum for the Pearl (8100).

Keep in mind, to get Internet and email service you MUST have a Blackberry dataplan. I am not on T-Mo but if you check their website, I am sure you can find out the cost.

Given all your needs, I agree with the other posters that the Dash might be your best bet.
