I think i will wait for the next round of updates before i change my bb, i have a 7100g and will look to update that next summer. But the 7130 does look tempting.

awesome...but how come it's $100 cheaper than the 8700?!? aren't they basically the same BB but in different forms?

the keyboard layout = consumer-friendly vs business-attractive

...and since business have plenty of money to spend... (yes, that's the assumption, it appears)

plus...there are double amount of keys on the 8700 ;)

i'd much rather have the 7130...for $100 less!
