I've also heard the same thing. I have also heard that there may be limited amount of (Product) Red ones also. This is not confirmed but it's a rumor that's been floating around at some of the fundraising events that I have attended.

(Product) Red would be really cool. I would get a new Pearl if they released a (Product) Red one.

As per any Apple referances, knowing 6 people all in different upper levels of RIM (Developers, Programmers, Trainers), they have actually had small talks with Apple about integrating Blackberry and iPod.

Now that Apple is releaseing the iPhone, or whatever it will be called... why wouldnt RIM step on the trend-whore bandwagon of making their devices "stylish".

It's all about marketing and making money.

Apple iPhone pshhhhh is all i have to say. I have a feeling it's going to be something like the verizon choclate style or candy bar and everyone will rush out and buy it like Q's and it's going to suck... Rumour has it it's supposed to have your standard 1-9 buttons and some rumours call for no buttons at all... We'll all have to wait for Jan 9th to see what Mr. Jobs has up his sleeve this time!

I do believe you that there is a white pearl coming out soon. I actually seen pictures of it. I have to see if I can find those pictures again.

we know there's a white pearl coming out.
only thing is - those shots really don't look entirely legit.
anyone can fabricate a white back casing.
but hey - innocent until proven guilty.

Considering Cingular *just* released the Pearl, I'd say that this is for TMo.
Unless of course it is for Verizon / Sprint, but there have been no reliable reports of a CDMA Pearl as yet.

The TM rep I talked to last night said a far away rumor going round is that there could be a Pearl coming out with the Qwerty keyboard. So my guess it will be more like an 8700 in width but have the Pearl features.

Isn't the Pearl with a QWERTY keyboard the 8800/8900?

Haven't been on the forum for a while so only heard about the 8800 AFTER I made that post. The TM rep was just as clueless as me however as they acted like it was this secret information. I should know better to check here first for what's really happening...you all know more about BBs than anyone!

Looks like you said something about a Red Pearl before TBG. So props to you.
I don't think it'll be a Project Red one but it's a Red Pearl none the less so the rumors you heard at your events were true.
