Default Blackberry instead of Instinct?

I'm considering the BB Pearl and Curve and was wondering what everyone
thought of these. I like the size of the Pearl, but I'm not sure I like the
two letters per key type of keyboard. I'm going have a look at them today at
lunch, but just figured I'd ask opinions of them in general, particularly
call quality. I'm not a business user, so I'd use it mostly for calls,
texts, perhaps web stuff (email, etc.). Not sure how many multimedia
features it has though.

Thanks.

I love my Pearl. The keyboard certainly took a couple of weeks ot get used
to, but I have become pretty proficient on it. I just got back from a
week's vacation and DID NOT take a computer with me. I was able to keep up
with email with minimal effort.

Calls and texting are fine. It sounds like we may at the opposite ends of
the spectrum in terms of needs, as I am more of a hardcore business user of
the phone. I can't comment on too much of the multimedia and web stuff
because I just don't use it very much. However, as a communication device,
it is easily the best phone I've ever owned.
