There are, believe it or not (and you're likely not to find them on these forums) a large market for flip-phones. People simply cannot get into a bar phone, a full QWERTY like today's smartphones. This is RIM's way to get into that niche, which may likely persuade people who like their platform, but simply would prefer a "flip." Plus, RIM seems to like having fun with T-Mobile, so it makes sense.
