I guess that's cool for chicks!

Even his best buddy said, wear your hat with those man!

Please don't tell me RIM are going to 'do an Apple'. By that I mean keep releasing the same thing, just in different colours to exploit a loyal market of customers. Roll on the Zune!!!!!! | | Offline

It's more a gripe about how Apple made the decision to release the same MP3 player in a load of new colours an 1mm thinner, instead of actually building new features like an FM radio in - which is what everyone else is doing. I'm just a bit anti Apple at the mo!!!! | | Offline

Well......when you think of a pearl, you do think of white pearls don't you? You hardly ever see black pearls. It would give it kind of a sissy look though....no offense to any sissies | | Offline

Another market, another case, another color scheme... just a bit mroe contrasting this time around, obviously.

Whatever you do don't go away on a trip or it'll be all different when you get back. | | Offline

I wouldn't be surprized if RIM hops on the full-on charity-color phone... It'd be cool to see a (product)RED version of the Pearl, plus a barbie-pink one for Breast Cancer.
Maybe an Aerosmith branded 8800 :D | | Offline

I think since they are trying to make the pearl more appealing to the average everyday consumer a colored pearl would help there but I think 8700/8800 type devices need to stay one solid color with maybe shades (IE verizon black tmo dark blue etc).

Pearl can pretty much look cool on any color, but a pink or red 8700 will look Fugly! | | Offline
