The 9xxx Pearl will be significantly thinner than the current model, if we can believe Boy Genius (which we can). It also means that, for the first time in awhile, we’ll get a resolution upgrade to the screen. Jibi told us that the 9900 device will feature a resolution of 384×288, which means that it’s not the Pearl (the screen ratio doesn’t match up with the current Pearl or any of the other x1xx BlackBerrys, so I’d be hard pressed to believe that they’d change it now), but does make it very likely that the 9100 device would receive a screen bump as well (especially if they’re looking to significantly upgrade the Pearl’s multimedia capabilities).

The second, I think Boy Genius edged us out. But tune in later this afternoon as Boy Genius and I will go “tête à tête” for round 3. We’ll talk about the 8300, various carriers, Palm’s rumoured buyout, and anything else that comes to mind during the course of conversation. Got a question for him? Hurry up and toss it in the comment section and we’ll get it in there. [...]

Originally described by Boy Genius in our interview as being “iPod white”, I wouldn’t say that description’s too far off. The article mentions that the device will be hitting T-Mobile stores on Monday. Who’s getting one? I’m not that intrigued. More shots after the jump. [...]

We were able to get BG’s (and my) unabashed thoughts on the iPhone, as well as some scoops on possible 8800 delays (and changed specs?!), and a little more info on the aforementioned “perfect” device from RIM. Enjoy the read. [...]

Later today, Boy Genius and I will have a sit down and have a little head to head regarding the iPhone. Unlike our last chat, we’ll both be weighing in with our opinions this time, trying to be as fair and level-headed as possible (…riiight). Check back for the interview later this afternoon. I think BG may finally be content with a device. [...]

Orjana, one of the few folks who broke new of the white Pearl on the forums, was able to scrape up a picture of the back casing of the rumoured (not yet confirmed despite the talked-about release date of “before Valentine’s Day”) white BlackBerry Pearl. Sort of looks like a skin – doesn’t really look legit to these eyes, but they’re red-rimmed and still waking up. Weigh in, folks. [...]

I was just reading a thread over on BlackBerry Forums started by Steve from BlackBerry Cool about his interview last week with Boy Genius.
A few people liked the interview. A few people didn’t. One thing for sure, at least in this …

On Monday, our interview with Boy Genius confirmed slight rumblings about the presence of a white BlackBerry Pearl. There really hasn’t been much feedback from the people on the street, the folks that matter – you – regarding this new offshoot, and so we’re centering our weekend contest around it this week. So, instead of following the usual format, we’re just looking for you to weigh in with your opinions on the white BlackBerry Pearl – that’s it. Best insight and commentary will walk away with three magmic games for your device. [...]

Looking at our artist’s great mock-up of the Pearl, I can’t help but be reminded of Motorola’s ill-fated ROKR phone (at least aesthetically) – great in concept, poor in theory. In our (plug) interview with Boy Genius (/plug), he commented on how he likes colour options when it comes to phones, but really, should RIM start with the Pearl? [...]
