Once just the play thing of the business user, the Blackberry has now got mass market appeal.
The Pearl range are particularly alluring due to their sleak and attractive styling - gone are the brick like dimensions of previous Blackberry models, and instead you have an attractive pocket size phone which packs all the power and applications of previous models. Even better is the fact this traditionally male phone is now available as a pink mobile phone!
The email capabilities are second to none, as you would expect with Blackberry - but this model also allows easy access to Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and just about every other social networking site you can think of. The internet access and browser are of a good standard, and the trackball navigation is similar to using a mouse and is a joy when browsing through a web site. Technically the Pearl is impressive with WiFi connectivity, MP3 player capability, video recording and playback, digital camera and blue tooth functionality.
In summary - if you are after a phone which not only looks good but also packs a punch this could be the one for you.
