Mostly gadgets, but I'll occassionally get sidetracked...

Does the Blackberry Pearl already have reported hardware issues?

Appears that users of the Blackberry Pearl are already complaining of hardware issues.  Seems that whoever designed the Pearl built a feature in to the center trackball the ability to mute the ringer.  Apparently it doesn’t take much to press that center trackball, so when it’s in a pocket, the trackball gets pressed muting the ringer causing the users to miss calls.  Several on a message board said they took the phones back already because they kept missing phonecalls.

Word is that T-Mobile/RIM will be offering an update.  Wow, an update already…
