I have a blackberry myself but heard that some hospitals will not allow them because it is a phone and has a camera

I was looking at this PDA-

Haven't had any problem r/t the blackberry. I just assure them that I put it into Airplane mode (turns the cell radio off) and they are cool with it.

Not sure if yo can use the Pearl in the same way as the Curve/Bold/etc. It has a lot of limitations, you might be better with the PDA.
