My company is changing services from T-mobile to AT&T. This is great for me because my family cell plan is AT&T so now I won't burn family minutes talking to my wife and kids.
I now have to choose between a Blackberry Pearl or Blackberry Curve.
Anyone with experience with one or both of these have an opinion?
Which Blackberry to get?

If you have fat fingers, the Pearl. The Curve is too small for many people.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Not helpful, I know, but I don't know anything about Blackberries.
I doubt that BIT's company will have support got the iPhone, at least not right away. Most are set up to support CrackBerries, though. But if you can talk them in to waiting until mid-July and if the Enterprise-related stuff does what it's supposed to, that's the way to go.
As for CrackBerries, I have no opinion. Go to an AT&T store and try 'em both out.
There is something wrong in a government where they who do the most have the least. There is something wrong when honesty wears a rag, and rascality a robe; when the loving, the tender, eat a crust while the infamous sit at banquets.

Thanks for all the input.
This was part of the email: These are the only devices supported under the contract, there will be no alternatives offered. As a note, iPhones will not be offered or supported under the corporate plan.
So, that said, I'm going with the Curve. Yes, I was concerned about my fat fingers and those tiny little keys, but I need to work on my daintiness and this will help.
Also, the models were the Pearl 8100 or Curve 8310. Of the two, the Curve has GPS built in, with mapping software. The Pearl (that model) does not.
So that's it. My decision was made by the GPS.
I'm sure that is valuable info to some marketer somewhere. To you guys, probably not so much.
Have a great weekend.
