not too bad, I still like the use of a touch screen though and windows would be nice. :dunno:

I like that it will have the wi-fi now!

Rogers told me they would be releasing the 8800 in March or April... can't wait! My 8700r has taken a beating :rofl: I think I will miss the thumbwheel though.

I text/email too much from my phone and I like having the full
QWERTY keyboard. One of my friends has a Pearl, I have tried using it a few times and I just can't get used to it :rofl:

Oh okay the 8800 looks sweet though for sure and it has wifi on some of the models.

the 8800 shouldnt bother pearl users. its quite a bit bigger and targets a different market. i dont like talking into a big piece of bread so id still prefer a pearl.

The pearl is retarded, its kinda useless having a QWERTY keyboard if there are 2 letters per button. I still have the first one, I love having a full keyboard on it.
