The actual wireless service should be the same on both phones. So that leaves us with options or functions of each phone. If you like a full keyboard and bigger screen then go for the Curve. If you're looking for a  smaller phone then get the pearl.

The biggest difference is the keyboard.

The Curve has a full QWERTY keyboard, while the Pearl combines keys so QW, ER, TY share keys.  The Pearl OS has a smart language tool that guesses what words you are typing and picks the right letters for you.

When I tried it, it had a pretty good success rate figuring out what I was typing, but I don't like the feature. I much rather have a full keyboard and full control of what I type.

If that is not a factor for you, then the Pearl is a better choice because its slightly more compact. For me that is a big a factor, and I don't want the combined keys... so I have a Curve 8300.

If you are shopping for a new blackberry though, I suggest you hold off just a bit and get the new Blackberry 9000. The device, UI and OS have been improved drastically!

Here is a good comparison of models and review of the new 9000:

Hi Lisa -

To the best of my knowledge, you can't specifically 'view' the blackberry clipboard, but you can hit the menu and paste whatever has been stored into a new e-mail or note and get a similar effect.

Hope this helps!
