What was your opinion on the phone? What did you think of the software?

I’m currently using a BB pearl 8130, it has a suretype keyboard.

I find the centro keypad much tougher to use, even though its a traditional qwerty.

It’s a little bit thicker than the pearl.

I found the touch screen to not be as responsive as I would like, many times pressing down multiple times with the stylus in order to get it to register. (for a comparison, I like the touchscreen on the I760 by samsung).

After really trying to play with the phone (I decided almost right away I was not going to activate it) the software and the way you navigate doesnt seem intuitive.

Thats as deep as I feel like getting right now though.

edit: AND NO 3.5MM HEADPHONE JACK.

Played with teh INSTINCT the other day. Meh not worth all the hype, If the BB can do all the things my Treo does, plus more, I may take the leap.

I was just informed I’ll be given a Palm Centro for my work phone =[ I guess I’ll just have to hide it in my pocket so that customers don’t think they should buy it just because I have it.

Oh well, at least I still have my 8830 for my personal phone and they can’t take that away! 😮
