      Blackberry's arent meant to replace iphones, or you digital camera cell phone. They are for business people who need real computer utilities in their hand(e-mail and a phone book) a 5mp camera is of no use to 85% of RIM's customers...as for comparing it to the iphone, there are laundry lists of what both devices can or cannot do to compare them is useless because the iPhone is for those who want something cool that they can do everything and make an occasional phone call...the Blackberry is for those who need to communicate with others through email and calling...not for youtubing...

      Those of you who sit here all day and complain about Nokia being better or apple being junk obviously spend less time outside in the real world interacting with real, people get over it.

      also last I checked RIM was dominating the business sector like Apple dominates iPods so I think those techs in Ontrio know a little bit about what they are doing (also RIM's market share has only been increasing the past 2 years so dont say they are doing this to keep customers as most customers by the smaller lower-end BB's and the 9000 wont be their top seller...mainly because most ppl dont need half the crap in it)

        definetly gonna grab this when it drops.

        Word is spreading that AT&T will be the first carrier in the US. Rogers (in Canada) has already posted a link on there site so i think its safe to say they will carry it as well. According to the press release, this should be available "beginning this Summer"...im assuming that means June/July. RIM wants the phone priced between 300-400 but b/c the carriers have the power, it will probably be closer to 400.

          Hello guys
          I don't understand y people always compare camera of the phone we some one need cam phone go for nokia sony etc but blackberry is a different mobile which can realy do a lot more then other phone. People who don't understand tech say bad for blackberry. One thing for all those who say bad for blackberry that this RIM is a creator of technology.
          Very nice job RIM

            talk about a bunch of ripped off design ideas, the bevel and overall shape of the iphone, the prada lg black and white interface, the the playstation psp home screen. That design group at black berry obviously went to school on other peoeples designs, much like the vertu inspired model they have now.

            still nice phone.

              Saw the video, touch screen with the physical qwerty would be perfect. In the video, it takes a while to go to the apps because of lack of touch screen. I hope there would be an upgrade, similar looks but with touch screen.

                      touch screen would have been nice, dont care about the 2mp as it is sufficient.

                            Good to see Blackberry finally catching up with the times. The screen size looks impressive.

                                      Paying high for a set means getting the most out of it but 2 mpx is a joke meaning you'll need to carry a different digicam. P5 sports a 5 mpx cam n flash with better music player n multimedia capabilities,surely an allrounder. P5 for me when it comes

                                        Excellent. I have never been a fan of RIM smartphones and I have always thougt that Blackberrys are overrated, but this very phone proved me wrong.
                                        Go RIM !
