It's a flip phone -- what do you want it to look like when it's flipped out. Any smaller and you'd complain about it's tiny screen and cramped keyboard. Yeesh!

I think that phones in general have come to their smallest possible size. Anything smaller (that requires traditional input like keys and screens) is just not going to cut it. Aside from thinness, we really need to stop comparing phones like this. Sturdiness should be a category.

Yes, I admit it, I am a huge BB fan boy. I can't wait to get the Bold or the Thunder.]]>Jun 24th 2008 2:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/Seriously though, I'm not really sure how this thing qualifies as ungainly. And considering it's got a heck of a lot more built-in functionality than most flip phones, I think people can shut up now about how it isn't exactly a RAZR. It's not meant to be a RAZR, it's meant to be a smartphone.]]>Jun 24th 2008 4:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/Jun 24th 2008 4:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/Jun 24th 2008 5:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/Jun 24th 2008 10:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/

I sure can......it's pronounced "Argot"!]]>Jun 24th 2008 10:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/Jun 24th 2008 9:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/24/blackberry-kickstart-cant-avoid-paps-gets-photographed-yet-aga/I'm not saying its ugly, but its been a while since i've seen such an average design get such high praise.
Not saying its bad, but it would take some getting used to it's looks. ]]>Jun 24th 2008 12:36PM
