They should have started straight with the latest curve and pearl models, and perhaps the 88XX series. Chinese consumers love flashy phones. They don't want some boring business device. Whenever I take my curve out of my pocket I get stares and compliments. When I had my pearl, I once had a police captain offer to buy it from me. As for the Redberry? I haven't seen it and I wouldn't worry too much about it. I don't think it's at the same level as RIM's service. I have no idea why they’re even bothering with the 8700 or the bloody 7290.
