Just bought this phone today as a stop gap. I must say that physically it is a beautifully styled phone. Comfortable in the hand and easy to use. The screen is nice and bright with good colours. Granted, the processor is slow - so you will sometimes need to be patient. Otherwise, if you are looking for a beautiful looking flip phone that is adept at handling calls, texts, and emails, then this is your phone. I like it. I love it.

The e71 is more of a business texting phone. I had it and personally I loved it.
The blackberry curve 8520 is more of a newer sleeker texting blackberry. There aren't as many free apps for blackberry, however their interface in flawless.
The pearl flip on the other hand, I couldn't imagine two letters on one key for a flip phone. Texting on a flip phone is already complicated and does not need the complex pearl layout to help.

the phone really is a great phone, the only issue i have is that the manufacturer seemed to really skimp on the ramdom access memory, making multitasking a real hastle, but once you plan to do one thng at a time, ur kool. tried playingasone while playinga game, wont be making that mistake again.

The phone tends to freeze every now and then, it looks and feels great, sound is ok too but the freezing is a problem, maybe a software update will get rid of that bug, personally, I'm not really a nut about this phone - it's ok as a gift for someone not-too-special

I have had mine for almost one year. I bought the $7/month additional replacement warranty - thankfully.
I have had to send it in for replacement twice now. It just stopped working and shutdown.
The battery is crap. I charged it all night, removed it from the charger at 9am and by noon it was already dead. This is a brand new battery that came with the last replacement.
I now have to use bluetooth headset for work, so I now have to have the phone plugged into the charger 24/7. Useless.
I like the phone itself. Except for the above, and the fact that if you have to restart it, it takes at least 5 minutes to restart.

charming, charming phone! i used it for almost 6 month and got into the temptation of BB Bold, which is a bit of a disappointment since the pearl flip turns out to have stronger battery power, and i've never did the battery-pull on it, now i do it almost religiously on my Bold :'( i missed this phone...
