Any neg. feedback on Blackberry Pearl?

So a friend of mine has turned me onto this phone. Looks pretty cool so far, but I haven't really gotten to far into it. Anyone have any negative feedback on it? All opinions are greatly appreciated!

i m using it. the screen is a little too small, and it really needs a full keyboard instead of one key to be able to enter 2 letters. Other than that, it's a good phone.

I think you have to subscribe to the Blackberry plan when you get one to get the full benefits.

I've never once had that complaint. Most people say that I sound better than any phone I've ever had.
