Looks fantastic. I just hope its basic operating system and functions are equal too or better than the 7290.

Se parece al iPhone :P

I saw a rim employee using one of these on the bus while on my way to school yesterday... they look pretty cool.

How do you know he was a RIM employee? Maybe he was one of the fortunate folks from Howard Chui that you saw.

Well... through the wonders of deduction I arrived at the aforementioned statement based on the following truisms... RIM is based in Waterloo, Ontario where I happen to go to university, the letters on his jacket spelled RIM, and he got off the bus directly in front of one of the RIM buildings.

Nice device - I really like that blue background on the screen there.
Lelouch Lamperouge @ May 21st 2008 2:23PM
Esta bonito el telefono, pero el sistema no me convence :S

"3.5mm stereo jack (standard size so you can use your iPod’s headphones)"... That statement is just wrong.

It's an insult to... everything. EVER

*Cue 200 posts from the fan police about how it isn't an iPhone *YAWN*

And what exactly is so "bold" about the new Blackberry besides the name? This is not a flame, but an honest question. To me, it looks pretty much like every other Blackberry. What makes it so "hotly anticipated"?
Jon @ May 21st 2008 3:07PM
Wondering the same thing myself...
I'm sure it's great, but what makes it better than the previous BB devices? It looks the same to my untrained eyes.
I think I saw somewhere that it uses Opera 9.5 and that the new browser is great, but can't any cell phone use Opera?

The main differences are in its media and web browsing capabilities when compared to previous BlackBerries. And as for Bold, well, that's marketing for ya. As in, I have no idea.
Jubei @ May 21st 2008 7:20PM
There is nothing "Bold" nor groundbreaking with the device. Perhaps its exactly as many have surmised as simply marketing speak. More likely, its a hint that RIM was Bold enough to copy Apple?

does the screen look WAY smaller than the current 8800 series to anyone else???
ascian @ May 21st 2008 5:22PM
looks like the iphone and blackjack had a baby
technophobe @ May 22nd 2008 2:46AM
I have one in my hand now (I've had it for a week to shoot for a client).
It's iPhone like, alright, and if the iPhone didn't exist, we'd be pretty impressed with it...

Looks pretty nice to me..
