I haven't heard anything yet regarding the Pearl, Tmag holds all such information and guards it fiercely!

Hmmm looking then, i love the pearl but the added extra of wifi on the new one is keeping me from getting one. You have a curve don't you? Are they much bigger, just wondered how they compare in size to standard phones?

I have the 8700, it's not overly massive but wider than the pearl!

Looks like we are set to get the same in Europe, as Vodafone Germany have announced the 8310 which sounds like the same unit, a Curve with built in GPS!
here
As I mentioned this will NOT have GPS like Germany's GPS enabled Curve 8310; yet the 8320 will have WiFi (802.11n = a/b/g)!

You mean the GPS enabled (8300 based) Curve for CDMA networks? Early 2008.
Oh you mean the OLD rumored Papa Bear 8330 ( the one that was rumored by TheBoyGeniusReports to have GPS, WiFi, EDGE)? That is NEVER going to debut or happen. Old news. Sorry.
8320 will have WiFi no GPS
BB Pearl2 will have EDGE & WiFi ... GPS is POSSIBLE depending on carry but NOT with WiFi.

Hello Everyone.
Figured I'd update the competition here.
BB 8320 on TMobile-USA NOW has WiFi & also UMA support. Already available & shipping.
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/[....]21,P623#tab_tab_specifications
The BB Pearl has NOW also been upgraded with WiFi support.
The BlackBerry Pearl 8120 comes with a 2 megapixel camera with 5x digital zoom and enhanced flash. The new camera also supports video capture in two resolutions: 240x180 or 176x144 for sharing via MMS.The BlackBerry Pearl 8120 supports the Bluetooth® stereo audio profile (A2DP/AVRCP), and comes with a 3.5 mm stereo headset jack so users can plug in their preferred headphones or speakers (wish I had this with MY BB Pearl).

ermmm it's not technically available on payg but you don't have to sign into a lengthy contract either, I'm currently using mine on the rolling month contract with T-Mob but I'm gonna switch to simplicity with O2 in the next few weeks.

Oh shoot! My mom just got a silver 8830 Curve to replace her aging 8700g and I thought she'd have the best BB available for some time. It's already outdated!

Any news on a new pearl, i've heard rumours but nothing concrete yet? Heard it is supposed to have wifi? Sooo want a blackberry.
The Old white Pearl is available at CPW now and yes the Pearl 2 will have want you need, but there will be the availability of 5 Colors. White, Black, Red, Blue and Gold (quite tasteful).
