NEED HELP PLEASE!!!

While in the middle of updating the software on my blackberry pearl, my computer randomly shut down, leaving my phone without any software installed. My phone restarted and now has plain white backround with plain black font listing address book and other stuff but none of this will work when i click on it. At the top of the screen it says: Blackberry Platform 3.4.0.20. How can i restore my blackberry to its original working state? (I do not have backup files on my computer) Thank you for any and all help.
