Overall I feel like this is a good book, it has relevant information on the Blackberry Pearl. I have always enjoyed the style of writing that is found in the "Dummies" series that I have purchased. It covers the basics very well, it's easy to read and fairly well organized. There is one drawback to it and that is in some of the topics, it lacks detail. Some who are "Techno Savvy", might not need the extra detail, but those of us who aren't so savvy, the more detail the better. Overall, I feel like it was worth the money.

It has been extremely helpful. Through this book, I've become very adept at using my Blackberry Pearl, so much so that my daughter, wife, sons, and parents make fun of my Blackberry habit. :-)

Although this book started out very simple, it did get into some decent detail, tips and tricks for my new Pearl. Each of the features gave a nice introduction and then went into details that I found very helpful and am still working to learn all the shortcuts it lists. I am mostly satisfied with it. I only wish it would have gone deeper still into some aspects of the pearl that I see but don't understand such as the meaning of the different icons next to emails sent. Most are easily understood but some are not and I'd love to understand all of them. I am glad that I purchased it and recommend it.
