BlackBerry® Pearl™

[Davegillam]

I have a pearl 9105 3G - the one with the numerical keypad and completely love it!!! It does everything I want from a smartphone and email and text is so easy with numerical 0-9 keypad and predictive text entry I notice no one now sells this phone and I want to ensure that if mine should breakdown that I have a new one to revert to! So...... Does anyone know where I can buy a new one?? Ebay an obvious place but I was hoping blackberry might have some in a store room somewhere that can be purchased by people like me as its disappointing that no other blackberry has this functionality!! Does anyone also know if there are any plans for this phone to be replaced with something similar including a numerical keypad? I hope so Many thanks Dave

Could not locate a new device (Listed as new in a recognized store) but did manage to find a few noteworthy sites where you could inquire.

You can also click on this link, and it will tell you where you can buy one based on carrier or location.

I know the above link is for the UAE, but I couldn't find a link for any of the other usual suspects. I would expect you should be able to buy (at least online) a newish 9105 from a store somewhere. Just be careful and make sure that if you purchase a device from ebay, that you protect yourself in case the deal doesn't pan out and you need a refund.

With BB10 coming out at the end of this year, I do not think we'll see a newer version of the 9105.
