i currently have an sk2 and was interested in getting a blackberry pearl but i had a few of questions. for the pictures can you transfer them from the phone directly to a computer? and can the pictures be emailed if you have the email service or does it have to be mms, which is another service? with my sk2 im spending about $60 a month which includes the voiceplan ($40) and the data plan ($20) but the data plan includes unlimited picture, text, instant messaging and internet. however if i wanted all those on the 8100 itd be voiceplan ($40), internet and email ($20) plus messaging ($15) the total would be $75 correct? also how web page viewing? does it work well with bank accounts, myspace and stuff like that? can anyone help? thanx.
 
for the pictures can you transfer them from the phone directly to a computer? YES.

Can the pictures be emailed if you have the email service or does it have to be mms, which is another service? Either Or

Also how web page viewing? does it work well with bank accounts, myspace and stuff like that? can anyone help? You can always resort to opera mini, however there is an update coming out with the next OS release that will improve the standard BB browser greatly.
 
~via BB (wap.rabroad.com)~opera mini works good with myspace the bb browser isn't good with myspace...opera min works good with bank accounts because its secure...the only difference with the plans is the sk plan includes txt where the data plan for bb doesn't include txt because its from rim and they don't offer that...they should in the future offer that...I suggest you get a pearl...I love my bb I plan to get a pearl...I have a 7290 and its awesome to me other than my internet is kinda slow because the 7290 only offers GPRS where as the pearl offers EDGE which is a lot faster
 
I access my bank account on my 8100. I works pretty good. I could also do it on my 7100 but gprs was a little too slow to make it practical IMHO (the pearl seems to load my account balance a bit faster)

I had an CSK before the blackberry and I personally think that bb's are the way to go. It got some taking used to type on the suretype keyboard, but now I type just as fast as when I had a sidekick.

Text messages are included on new plans. I switched from a sk2 because I kept the same plan with the unlimited text.
 
sk2 will give you unlimited text for $20. You won't have web access on a BB with a sk plan. If you don't want the www you should kick the sidekick plan and add unlimited text for $15.
 
its a blackberry + minutes plan but it doesnt have unlimited nights and weekends
its just 1000 min. unlimited text and unlimted data for $59.99
 
are u saying theres a plan with 1000min + internet + messaging for $59.99? because ive been looking around and havent seen anything like that.
 
Yeah the plan is avaliable but like was stated it doesn't include N/W minutes. That is one plan that isn't in the rate plan guides at the T-Mobile stores.
