It will probably look like the regular Pearl, except it will have Verizon and Sprint branding on it.

What is this? SPAM? Your links have no pictures of the Pearl 2.

I know there's already pictures out there about Pearl 2 but I don't remember where it is at.


Sorry Blackberry fans but..I will be first in line for the HTC Dream with Android OS by Google. Pre-order 9-17 Release on 10-13. (DATES CONFIRMED)

Every article and blog mentioning the Pearl 2 that I have seen has said it will be CDMA. I haven't seen one mentioning Tmobile.

Depending on the version, I fully expect T-Mobile to carry the 8120 (WiFi) and AT&T to get the 8110 (GPS) with Verizon and Sprint likely sharing the 8130 at some point. I've heard time frames from September to December with no specifics on carriers or devices.

For data, yes. For voice, only if you're on TMO US (or another carrier that offers UMA/GAN functionality, although there is no one else at this point, to my knowledge).

Considering all this info is coming from Blogs, not official channels, its all speculation I guess.

considering the unofficial information coming from those blogs are coming from official sources, albeit not published official sources, i would think they'll prove to be fairly reliable

And your actually thinking Verizon will get something early or with everyone else? They will get it late ... usually 6 months to a year late. And when it does come, it will be hobbled for one reason or another so you don't get choices if its a Verizon phone.

Pearl 2 is GSM ... its not coming to Verizon yet. Rumor has it that it is AT&T first, them T-Mo.

History and Verizon track record tells me that they will not get it first. Track record tells me that they will be last to get it. Although, I do admit the 8830 came more quickly than the 6 months to a year late. Maybe they will be getting devices sooner now .... but I seriously doubt first. And I seriously doubt unhobbled.

I will take BG's blog over the ones you said. He is usually spot on who it is going to maybe not exact dates but those always change.
