Blackberry is actually workin on a flip phone. dats shockin. they don't seem like a company 2 do flip or slid form factor.  ur kno, like palm. it looks good but very long. from my ear it must be reachin my chin  d bottom piece alone looks as long as d persons hand. wat u'll tink?

it looks cool, not a fan of blackberry phones tho (they bore me).. but it looks cool. it could be a bit smaller tho..

Love the keyboards on the blackberries, makes typing easier than on a numeric t9 system.

I dont particularly hate closed platforms, but there aren't any real 3rd party apps for the thing, which very much limits your features to what rim wants you to have. The aforementioned coupled by the fact that I healthily loathe clamshell phones, I cant see myself even touching this.

But alas, this is not a blackberry bashing session. I'm sure that flip & blackberry fans will find this irresistible.

I'm a candy-bar type cell phone user, so this Blackberry Phone doesn't attract me. my GF has the Palm Centro, now that is a sweet phone!

I just bought a friend the Palm Centro for her Birthday.

don't reely like the blackberry myself (lack of 3rd party software an hate the GUI) but the fact that they are willing to break out an produce a flip phone, i think there may b hope in the future. instead of only being a business phone i hope they come to the youth generation side, which i believe this fone would be geared toward. business ppl don't need a flip.
