ive literally known this from the very second i held my 9700 in my hands. if you look at it at an angle you can see that the trackpad has that same pseudo clearness that the business end of a remote control has. has a slight red/purple tinge to it.

i.e. the trackpad itself is just a shell

is this confirmed...i havent seen anything solid on that...hopefully i missed it?...

i currently have the iPhone and it sucks for email (when u manage multiple accts) my curve (8300) that the iPhone replaced was alot better. i find myself never using the youtube features, always emailing people/myself pics (no mms) and rarely doing music other than in my car...and based on verizons habit/problem of locking the gps on their berrys...i think ill pass the storm and go right to the bold, for me this phone should be perfect! i cant wait!

nitro is slated till at least 2012

i am near detroit and today so far was good, but the last few days i have been unable to maintain EDGE on my curve. i would see edge if i was lucky and most of the time it was GPRS and GSM...during which i cannot browse the web, but my email and messenger worked. so far att's network compared to the verizon 700p i switched from has been complete shit.

im looking forward to helping to iphone hacking community do more with this phone/figurer out the OS/make it do things they dont want you to do with it! :-)

tmobile is on the ball lately! they are the least evil way to do gsm in the usa i can think of! great prices too! (im on vzw but considering tmobile)
