I had a 7510 & 7520 (Full QWERTY) with Nextel for about 2 years and then switched to the Pearl. I had a Pearl for just about a year and I adjusted and got used to the Sure Type pretty quickly. I could type without looking and probably averaged around 50wpm or more.

I just recently purchased a Blackberry 8800 to replace my Pearl and it actually took me about a month to finally get used to the QWERTY keyboard again.

So I think with patience there really is no advantage or disadvantage to the QWERTY vs Sure Type. With the exception of entering custom abbreviations or new words for the first time.
