Almost there ...

Hint: Barcodes are not there for decoration.

This commentary taken from BLACKBERRY COOL and over the hype I think they are the most sincere questions about the 9000 series without fanboyism:

Now if only RIM would incorporate a similar type browser in the BB.

that might bring you back eh? check the aftermarket section just posted a new tabbed browser being developed for BBs

Looks good. Put that on a BB with a hardware keyboard and a touch screen for easy zooming and manipulation of web pages and I would be back in a second. I think RIM will deliver, but I have come to know that RIM moves with the speed of molasses when it comes to big changes on their hardware. Time will tell.

well luckily i think the browser should be resolved with a software issue (that one does look very promising, i like the landscape view, especially with a track ball)

As if the iPhone keyboard is so great either. I tried it, it sucks, no tactile feel, the keyboard is not lined up or accurate. So which one has the worst keyboard, the Ipown does.

no i played with an iphone. its the junk apple codes which makes their product inferior. i am tired of the apple fan boys who believe in the idiotic apple commercials,

here this is how good apple is..

apple distributes safari exactly like malware, oh look itunes update, the heck why is safari included now? its not an itunes update.

mac book air, safari or os x safari buffer overrun exploit while this has been out for a long time now apple still refuses to patch it.

btw the hack applies to all os x safari not just air. its even funnier it was hacked within 2 minutes of going online.

Slashdot | Microsoft or Apple - Who Is the Faster Patcher?

and how the key commercials are set at the ignorant masses who believe apple is superior to a pc i laugh at,

i would rather take a ms product or win mobile device before an apple product, just for he sheer false advertising behind it.

i mean the lines mac follows is so funny, microsoft has anti trust, while mac can practice the same crap ms got sued over and get away with it.. gimmie a break, mac is 10x worst then microsoft, the bottom line tho, they are so small in user base, nobody cares. and most mac users walk with blinders on.

p.s i have played with the iphone and if i was a girl it would be a device for me, its too femmine for me, and i'm not 16 and in hs that sporting media on a phone is cool with friends.. the feel from the phone is girlish.

Device looks to finally bring a lot of features we all want though as many of you are pointing out it is not earth shattering....I mean it is not like the iphone.

Question is when do we see it on the market and when does this become official...I mean is this really the device of just someones idea of photoshop fun? I keep hearing June...anyone know for sure?

Also where are people finding the specs?

I don't really call it hacking when the guy prepared his website with the exploit for I don't know how long and then just launched Safari and had to point to a specific server so the hack would be done... I don't see how that could harm a Mac while randomly browsing.

i mean the lines mac follows is so funny, microsoft has anti trust, while mac can practice the same crap ms got sued over and get away with it.. gimmie a break, mac is 10x worst then microsoft,

This statement along with your "IE is better then Safari", tells me you are a MS fan and no product or feature from Apple will ever suit you.

I'll take those 2 comments as a shot at me, typical.

Argon I wouldnt take the girl comments as a personal shot. I felt the same way it does feel kind of femine to me as well. I thought that the first time I played with it.

To be fair, I have heard some say the very same thing about the 8100 series. I don't agree, personally.

Actually I agree there as well and I carry the pearl. It is a little dainty

Although the browser that many ppl are wanting is started by Apple & Nokia (First shown on the Nokia N71 almost 2yrs ago) - the project is called WebKit.

No matter what other companies are calling it (Apple = Safari, Nokia = Nokia Browser, us = mobile safari) its WebKit.

The WebKit Open Source Project

(Links in text removed: S60 Webkit development, KHTML, KDE, and Safari).

Interesting that that compass icon looks like Safari's icon, but most likely its for GPS.

PS - Locked into a 3yr contract for a normal phone (SE K850i; media browser icons look exactly like the leaked icons for 9000 ), and saw the Curve Titanium last night REALLY made me miss it!

the exploit is a bufferover run exploit it affects every safari browser out, its been like this for about over a year now, yet mac still dont patch it.

is what i am getting at.

i prefer open source actually, linux, etc, but bottom line is commercially you have 2, 1 is microsoft, the other is mac, ibm's os2 died. so this brings us to 2 commercial os vendors. i'm leaving the free os vendors out of this, linux dist etc.

out of the two i can purchase in a store, 1 is worst then the other(apple). yet its driving the blind masses with blinders on thats its better, which it is not.

i'm not gonna argue this any further since you seem to be the perfect mac customer. gl

as for part 2, take it how you like it.
you dont like my opinion of the iphone, what ever, its a phone i would get my girl not for my self. its a toy, and girlish. w/e take that as you want.

ok, lets get this back on topic and keep personal attacks/percieved attacks out of it. Fact of the matter is, this thread is about the 9000, not the iphone, not open source, not safari, the 9000. Stay on topic or risk deletion of posts.

Thank you!!!!!!!!!
