my trackball goes somewhere else when i try to press ok,

i have to press the enter button instead.

HELP ME PLEASE,please!

The trackball is typically the first thing to go wrong on a BlackBerry device. Unfortunately it's a common issue.

RIM have now started to replace it with a 'trackpad' in the new model phones.

whats a mms?

[bizemail]

Multimedia Messaging Service - basically picture/video messaging. It's the evolution of SMS (text messaging).

do you need to pay for internet

[bizemail]

If you use GPRS/3G - you'll need a data tariff. There are a number of 'pay as you use' or 'unlimited' tariffs which for a monthly fee might include browsing as well.

On the more current models of the Pearl - it provides wifi, so you can use your home or office broadband instead of your wireless carrier.
