To answer the question you asked initially, here's a breakdown based on what is known (ie: in field devices) and what is assumed (ie: rumour, hints, leaks, etc).
Pearl 8100:
SureType
1.3Mpix camera
Trackball
thin form factor
EDGE
8800:
QWERTY
GPS
Trackball
thin form factor
EDGE
8820:
8800 + WiFi
8830:
EVDO, GPRS (dual European bands)
GPS
same ff as 8800
8300:
QWERTY
2.0 Mpix camera
3.5mm headset jack (others are 2.5mm)
different form factor than 8800 - slightly shorter in "Y", narrow in "X" and thicker in "Z" the latter two are pretty marginal though given side-by-side pictures
EDGE
8320:
8300 + WiFi
Different products will be launched by different carriers - Cingy has the 8800, Tmo likely the 8820. Cingy likely the 8300 and Tmo the 8320. Sprint / Verizon the 8830. There will likely be variants of the 8300 for Sprint / Verizon as well, and maybe an 8100 variant a well, but so far no news of either.
hope that helps
