I hope this is the right place, it is my first (preBerry) post.

Looking to get my first Berry (from T-mo) when my current wireless contract (with another company) runs out soon. I have not found anything in the forums on the soon-to-be-released "Blackberry Connect" Samsung flip? What do you folks think of it? What will it lack as compared with the 7100's and my other phone of interest, the soon-to-be-released 8100? I want a SureType model. Why does the T-mo web description say it soes not have Email, is that a misprint? Will it do the Berry PIN chat?
Thanks in advance for not flaming this newbie.

Only Built-in Blackberry will have PIN service such as the Semiens sx56 I won't comment on Samsung since personally I don't like them at all.

It is also my understanding that the Blackberry connect devices will have the push email, but lack the ability to do lookups of the corporate address book. A huge negative IMO that will probably keep me from ever switching.

I feel the same way as u Hydn. I had a Samsung e635 slider last year and had problems with that thing straight out of the box. Froze and rebooted itself whenever I tried to download anything from the WAP browser. Messages took forever to send, or didn't send and the phone rebooted itself all over the place. I only used it for a month before I threw it.

no, all blackberry have email...if you want a suretype model i suggest the 7130 for cingular or 8100(which comes out soon) for tmo
