BlackBerry Full QWERTY Keyboard or SureType?

Kevin Michaluk – While the BlackBerry 8800, 8700, and 8300 Series offer full QWERTY keyboards, the ultra-slim Pearl utilizes BlackBerry’s SureType technology (which assigns multiple letters to each key) for data input. If you receive more emails than you send, and place value on having a small-sized phone, the BlackBerry Pearl may just be for you.

While I personally have never been a fan of SureType, I have seen people become very adept at using SureType, to the point where they can equal the speed and accuracy of me on a full QWERTY BlackBerry.

While full QWERTY keyboards are larger (by necessity) than the Pearl’s SureType keypad, the QWERTY method of data entry is very easy to learn and become proficient with, is fast, and offers high accuracy. Link [tags]blackberry[/tags]
