That Wifi is looking pretty sweet. Want to see what else it can do. I don't think i can hold off for a Spring release. May they will release it earlier ?

Now if only they'll give the option to lock or turn off the trackball when the device is locked...

I literally owned a Pearl for exactly 3 hours before returning it to the T-Mobile store. Every aspect of the device was nice except.....the keyboard. Suretype isn't easy to cope with. I mean, the screen was nice and crisp. The 1.3 mp camera took pretty nice shots. Multimedia features were of startingly high quality. Even the phone itself was a beauty to just sit and stare at..... It was just that keyboard that ruined everything. I would have rather used a standard telephone keypad and implemented the handy T9 text technology...Lol. Anyhow, Im glad I returned it because now, the target focus is now all for the full qwerty'd 8800.

You description of what you think about SureType is way too graphic and offensive to be posted here. Please edit your post.

jay84virgo thank you for editing your post and try to be a little less descriptive in the future.

Yea, you can have the 8800 with the incredibly small, impossible full qwerty keyboard on it and have it the size of the 8100. Better have small fingers because I can barily fit my fingers on the 8100's suretype keyboard.

Even though i am a suretype fan i am hoping to see the same specs in future suretype bb. If not then i will make the switch to the 8800, because of the bigger screen, and wifi make it more attaactable

Here it is, a sweet multimedia BB!
Wifi will be awesome, no need for a camera, but if it all comes together, I will take it!
But, I say take your time to release it, RIM.
Lets make sure there are no issues this time.....
But, hey, hurry up, we need it! ha ha ha

I dont know why they wouldnt include it, usually they just to add features that help sell their products not take them away. There is not enough info out yet to confirm 100%

I apologize for my use of vulgar analyzing. I hadn't read the rules....I am new here. But honestly, I just knew from the 3 models that the indigo one was different from the other two. The the indigo model has a different "external" shape from the other two. I always wondered why they could find 3'd pictures from "just" that model (Indigo) as oppose to the other two (Crimson). Thats why people immediately drew conclusions that the 8800 wasn't gonna include a camera. I thank my suspicious conciousness for benefitting the doubt.
