This does explain why T-Mobile skipped on the 7130xx.
T-Mo internal reps have got to be laughing their heads off. This is how it's going to look in October: Cingular: grey 8700c and 7130c T-Mobile: all black 8700 and 8100, plus the 7100's of yesteryear going like hotcakes. I'll give it to T-Mo, they're "bringing sexy back." :) |

Yo BG... is that a trackball in the middle? I know dawg said jostick, but that looks an awful lot like the trackball that they are using on the Sidekick 3. Maybe this is T-Mo trying to create a distinct feature set across their phone lines. I was very upset about the lack of scroll wheel, but if that is a trackball I think it's an even better move.

Excellent...I plan to pick one of for the gf when it is released...
|
Also... I have to say I'm really happy they stuck with the suretype. I'm a 7100 user and I love that the T-Mo suretype buttons are big and flush to each other (unlike Cingular's version where the keypad has all that unused space). My GF uses the 8700g and I just can't get down with those tiny keys. Plus the number of taps you use on suretype is no more than on a qwerty, in fact it's less if you use slang and shortcuts.
I know some of you feel differently but it really is a great keypad once you get the hang of it. |
for those of you who cant wait, here comes ebay: eBay: Unreleased Blackberry 8100 Cell Phone! (item 160016405577 end time Aug-06-06 15:20:51 PDT) lol

wow. whoever was selling that phone on ebay (if they really had one) must really not have wanted it considering they sold it for $250 and free shipping! man i wish i would have seen that. i would have bought it. the new 8100 is awesome. i love suretype and i would probably use the camera just for fun. anything else you'd care to share with us BG?

I am not 100% convinced that it does not have a scroll wheel. I want to see shots of the other side. It's still too early to say what enchancements they will make. My guess we will see 2 more updates to devices this year.

Just to be fair,
In Oct 07 everyone will be saying T-What? when HSDPA is fully rolled out and Cingular has 3g blackberry exclusive. Quote:
