I am 13 years old, and a freshman in high school. I haven't had a cell phone yet, and my birthday is in 5 days. For my birthday, I get to choose a cell phone. So which one? I am leaning more towards the Blackberry Pearl 8130, because it has better features, and isn't as popular as the Apple iPhone so I don't have to worry much about it being stolen. But since the Apple iPhone has third-party applications, it's hard to choose...

So which one?

P.S. Does Blackberry Pearl 8130 have third-party applications?

DONT GET APPLE IPHONE!!! it sounds crazy, but my frend has it---it has the WORST possible service. and doesnt work that well. it looks and sounds cool but its a peice of crap!
