Looks real to me...although some browser issues still exist. That's Sith's avatar on Dawg's post.

[jeremy]

Is there anything in particular that you want to see on the device?

[John Clark]

I want to see my hands on the device!

That sounds really logical. Does Georgia have a "Vulcan Consulate"?

LMAO Probably so we have our share of techno geeks there.

I honestly like the new device lineup. The 9000 looks like its going to be the most comfortable. Hopefully AT&T will put a good twist on the housing, like they have done to the other devices.
The Flip thing is more of a challenge. Ive had flips before, and they might make it easier to carry it round in yer pocket, But if the housings are going to be manufactured where the curves are, I wouldnt dare put it in a lint filled pocket any time soon...
The slide out keyboard will ROCK. For a brief time, I had a XV from VZW. And I loved the sideways slide out keypad...
HURRY UP RIM!!! The anticipation is almost as discouraging as the so called "New OS" were supposed to have by now...

Yeah I started to believe your words that is real.. However I want to see more your device of pictures on this.. Plus your device in hand and big smile on your face of picture, please.. thank you!

[John Clark]

You "started" to believe it's real? They are out there. Kevin at Crackberry.com HAS one and has been writing it about it for over a week. It's no secret the devices are out there. I have no reason to doubt that this person has one too.

[JEGO82]

Actually i do have a question. How's the keyboard?? is it better than the 83xx??? or is it just like the 88xx??

[g.b.]

Is the calendar app the same as it's always been? I've been hoping for a week-at-a-glance view alá DateBk5 by Pimlico. Pocket Informant is supposedly working on a Blackberry version that will include this but so far it's MIA. I've always considered the Blackberry calendar to be it's weak point as far as PIM functions go and this new grid view would do wonders for me in alleviating that shortcoming.

The keyboard is wonderful. In my opinion, it is better than that of the 88xx and the 83xx. I've noticed that each key is raised toward the inside top. I find it easier to type on and it has the tactile feel without the loud click of the 83xx keyboard.
