Why no WIFI/WAN? The phone companies will not benifit. If there is WIFI you will not use the Voda Phone connection and they will lose money. How could they forget? It purley politics. In this time of technology no WIFI? They are forcing us to use the networks for Internet connection.

I think though that the keyboard will be pretty easy for most people but it will just take some getting used to. My thumbs are pretty big, and I didn't do too bad. I expect I'd have no problems with some practice!

but does it need like a constant 3g or wifi connection for emails to reach your phones?
thx guys"
and
"Push Mail sue alot of Battery. My Battery on IPHONE and E66 will go down so fast if leave the push mail open."
The MAJOR difference between Blackberry Push and others (iPhone, Symbian and Windows Mobile) is that the Blackberry BIS (Blackberry Internet Solution) or BES (Blackberry Enterprise Solution) push the emails to the phone without the device having to connect all the time to check for new emails.
All the other phones have to stay connected or constantly keep connecting to check at different intervals, the Blackberry's don't.
Regarding Internet use all traffic to the device runs through the Blackberry servers where it is compressed, it will even only download enough data to fill the screen as you need it.
This cuts down the amount of data used which means that wireless isn't needed so much and why the older Blackberry's worked so well using only GPRS.

I can state 100% NO WIFI the choice was either Sat Nav chipset or Wifi chipset. Not enough room for both. The Storm is about the same size as the Bold if it helps give an idea on size........

Not multi-touch, no. But it is a pressable screen. You can browse by brushing/touching the screen, but can press the screen to press buttons etc.

They forget to put Wi-Fi and some how fall out of their plan to include. Good Luck to them for phoen with lack of Business preformance.

The Spec does not include Wi-Fi, i guess this is why the comment has been made about the HSDPA.
