I am not sure why that site is "guessing" that tmo might get the device, when RIM's press release was pretty exacting about stating clearly that TMobile USA would get it this fall... and probably first.

You know, I have almost always owned a flip phone. Except for my 1st cell (a Trac Phone), and a Sprint (can't remember what it was), I have always loved flips.
Now, it might just be personal taste, but something seems out of place with the words "flip phone" & "Blackberry" together in the same sentence. The 8220 looks nice and all, and probably is a decent enough cell, but it just doesn't seem like a real BB.

Just one man's 1-cent worth (I owe the other penny to someone).

I am eager for some reason to see this device live and in person

I like it if a decent case comes out for it.

I think if its not too expensive that it will be a big seller. I think that eventually ill get one if the price is right. Ive always liked flip phones.

I'm planning to buy one. I love my Pearl but its having to many problems. I'd rather have a flip phone, the screen doesnt get scratched to easily.
