Thu, 07 Dec 2006 16:47:26 +0000 http://www.blackberrycool.com/2006/12/05/002902/#comment-60330 I went in to Cingular the other day and looked at the Blackjack. I was going to buy it, but I am still holding out hope for the BlackBerry. I have never owned one(big Treo fan here) but I have grown tired of Treo releasing a new model every other year.They can’t seem to put into a phone what consumers really want. What I want to know, besides the color, is will the 8800 have UMTS/HSDPA along with the WIFI? If so then it will be worth the wait, if not, then maybe the HTC Cavalier or Blackjack is the way to go for me.

We’ll try and sift through the lies and deceit and bring you validity. While sifting through the inbox, I stumbled upon this note from someone who hopes to remain anonymous, yet feels the need to share the wealth of BlackBerry 8800 knowledge, which is slight, but also slightly intriguing.

Waters Thu, 07 Dec 2006 05:08:58 +0000 http://www.blackberrycool.com/2006/12/05/002902/#comment-60255 I think everyone should take a deep breath concerning all the future BlackBerrys, and the info relative to the release dates of same, etc.

I have a BB 7130e and am quite happy with it.

RIM, how about giving us all a break so we can appreciate the model we’ve got !! This BlackBerry madness is taking away all the enjoyment of having and using these great devices, whether for business or pleasure or both.

There I’ve said it and I’m glad.

8800 (Camera): 106 x 60 x 15.5 (or 4.17″ x 2.36″ x 0.61″)
8700g: 110 x 69.5 x 19.5 (or 4.33″ x 2.73″ x 0.76″)
8100: 107 x 50 x 14.5 (or 4.21″ x 1.96″ x 0.57″)

I’m not really understanding what was ‘exclusive’ or ‘updated’ in the article aside from some possible information about the color of the camera-enabled 8800 (“80% chance of black colors in the forecast for this Spring”), even though the grey one pictured with the article (which is the camera-enabled version) doesn’t exactly reflect this particular proclamation. The color of the initial T-Mobile 8800 (the black Indigo) was known MONTHS ago.

As for the dimension calculations and tentative release dates, what’s new that would seriously warrant the nature of their article as ‘exclusive’ or ‘updated’? This makes me want to say something like ‘Japan bombs Pearl Harbor. United States joins campaign against Germany.’ but that may be slightly unprofessional, eh?

Anyhow, I am a fan of Russ and his website, but let’s check the content next time. Perhaps if there was more meat to the content of the article, it would make more sense? I’m not really sure, but it honestly just appears to be nothing more than logical speculation based on what some have already reported as known information.

Now they’re making the k/b even *narrower*?
