What he means is that the 8800 is designed for corporate environments where cameras are not allowed. Obviously the 83XX line wouldn't be suitable for that niche.
We tend to standardize on whatever the current full qwerty model happens to be. I don't think anyone can really make a strong enough business case for an 83XX so we'll probably stick to the 8800. We have deployed SureType BB's but only for execs that specifically requested them.

I don't see why not. Again, there are plenty of corporate customers that need the 8800.
Last I heard though, neither at&t's nor TMO's 83XX will have GPS.
