They offered the phone as it was new and really was refurbished and in very bad condition. even the keyboard have keys wich does not work

these phones are not unlocked!! i got two and both of them rejected the sim cards.

Delivered in the spected time but it came with the gsm card slot broken, so the telephone says "insert card" all the time while the gsm card was inserted.
Had to send it to repair.
So its has to be "refurbished" not new as advertised or RIM has bad quality inspection...!?

very disspointed in this product! the camera quality is poor, the view is blurred, the call button has to be pressed so many times before you can redial a number. the black berry cd appears to be a fake as it wont install!! i am absolutely dissapointed.

I got my Blackberry Pearl about a week ago...and I LOVE it. How cool is it that I can check my AOL email right on my phone?? The same phone that I can take awesome pictures with, send them by email or Picture mail to friends and family, go to websites, text message, play games, watch tv...this phone has endless things to do. It's just like having a little palm sized computer!! I find myself spending hours playing with it...I used to see people doing that with their phones and wonder what the heck??? Now I know!!
And don't be scared!! I thought it would be so hard to learn things...but they actually have a website, blackberry.com, that has little tutorials and all kinds of helpful tidbits that made sense, and were easy for me to pick up on. I'm so thrilled I chose this phone...I've been looking for months, and was just scared to get a phone I thought would be too complicated for me. I'm so glad a friend of mine talked me into this. I got a red pearl, which thrills me even more, lol. This is a wonderful phone, and pretty easy to to do ANYTHING you want on.
Get you one, you'll love it!!

I ordered a BRAND NEW Blackberry Pearl 8100 on July 31, through amazon.com

It looked new and worked well only the first day.

Then started having problems: the battery lid is hard to open. The sound volume is weak and the volume key is blocked. The Blackberry msn doesn't work. The software can't be updated. "The PIN has problems". Don't have blackberry internet service and my cell phone company Digitel informed me the cell is not new but refurbished.

I demand my money back! And I'll send you the cell back.

I am expecting for solution to my problem.

As promised. REALLY NEW Blackberry Pearl, fully unlocked. Is better to buy directly from Amazon's store.

I'm a long-time blackberry user and genearlly like the OS. A salesperson at the ATT store talked me into to buying this phone - even though the trackball looked like it would cause problems. And it has - I've already replaced it once and the new one only worked for a few months. I can still use the phone but navigating menus are less than optimal. Additionally, the SIM card holder is loose so I often get "SIM card Errors". From my experience, this is the worst phone that I've owned - below even Motorola...

I went through approximate 4-5 models not the one working properly or after 3-4 days will just die on me, I going back to my IPhone no blackberry for ever again. Thank you.

This phone was stated to be a new one but it was actually refurbished. You can't get a signal often and when you do you can't hear anyone on the other end of the line. I'm highly disappointed in Amazon.I learned my lesson.
