Nope that is not correct at all; the last huge bill credit was on the 7290 and treo 600 when they wanted to blow through them. They did this when the price of the device dropped to $150 well after the launch of the device.
8700,7130 and pearl have not included any such rebate.
The color of the 8800 is jet black.
The device got held up due to Rim supply issues. They are telling Rogers and all through the dealer channels that it still will be within march.
The pricing has been posted here:

and one price that isnt posted on the site is the month to month/ no term pricing is 649.
typically most dealers will sell the device at full retail at 749 giving them $100 in margin. Some might charge more due to the popularity of the device.
All my stores in vancouver are doing it for the srp of 749
