Hi all, I test both 8700 and 8707 in France on SFR 3G networks.
I prefer the 8700 because the intel CPu is much faster than the Qualcomm.
Result, 3G in a normal BB utilisation does not make difference.
But a better CPU make web page appear much quicker so I prefer 8700 with GPRS. For battery lifetime, it's the same but a little better for the 8707.
