BlackBerry Pearl

I was looking for information on the mass storage mode and your article gave me exactly what I needed. A quick search in Google got me to your article. I am a new BlackBerry Pearl owner. I love the phone. It is obvious after having owned Motorola's and Nokia's and other phones over the years why BlackBerry has been so successful. I would be very interested in hearing about how the trackball holds up over time. This was my only real concern. However, so far it has been great. The only other features I was not thrilled with was the placement of the Micro SD Card and the headset. I wanted to buy an adapter(3.5mm to 2.5mm) to allow the use of a standard 3.5MM stereo over-the-ear headset. I bought the one that seemed to be recommended but I could not get any sound to come through the headset. I noticed there are some stereo headsets now that are 2.5MM that may work. I just haven't tried. The headset that ships with the Pearl works fine other than the fact that I don't like earbuds and I would prefer stereo sound. It is certainly not the best MP3 player with the short battery life. It is just convenient. If you have any ideas, let me know. sflick@ncimo.com.
