I too am curious about the video playback of ALL VERIZON BB's......... I have had a 7250 for AGES now and I just finally ordered their 8330. Very excited....... I have users here with 8830's but they travel allot and I have not asked them if they can play 3gp or m4v files. I tried to access a 3gp file the other day with a Verizon 8830 (Tried to stream it), but I got IE page error. (I'm pretty sure it was just server problem).

Anyways. I have heard that Verizon locked down (imagine that.....ha) their Blackberries video capabilities....Like you can't use RIM's Blackberry video converter, you have to use Verizon's, (amazing), and that the device will not stream videos over the internet.
