The exterior of the 8820 remains identical to the 8800 of course. The major additions... "user friendly" WiFi AND GPS.

Which carrier and when?

[jimdarcy]

[HeyMrRadio]

Im going to assume ATT will get their palms on this one first.

[angiesbiz]

I am waiting to see the new 8820 with wifi, but did hear the GPS will disabled. Not sure if that is true, but hope not.

the talk i heard was the GPS woud be "watered" down, not disabled.

the question is will the 8820 work with the @home service

For what it's worth the rumor mill has 8820 available on TMO end October (not yet confirmed)....

[OzzieDog]

Nice pictures Hayden, any idea when AT&T will release this?
Keep us posted I want one.
Will your review be coming soon?

[angiesbiz]

The reps at AT&T said it should be coming in anytime now. But I wonder if it is worth the upgrade from my 8800? If wifi is the biggest deal, then I will wait until another unit come out.

[tdawg]

Hayden must have more devices.... eg 8320 maybe

[oxide-tones]

so what happened to the rumours of wi-fi being "neutered" on AT&T?

You'll have to check the web source of that rumor for updates. But in all fairness the above BB isn't with At&t.

TMO BABY!

[jmgarza]

just read sprint will have Pearl 2, any truth to this. My contract ends Nov and I was going to switch to AT&T.

[stranjal7]

Aw man , I will be good with one of these devices. Does anyone know if the wifi will work with the T-mobile @home service ?~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~

AT&T - Sept. 4th is what I am hearing for a release date.

Saweeeet!

Hmmmm, but I would like a cam too. How much longer for a GPS/WiFi 8320?

[Kaie]

whatever happened to the GPS shots?

If you want WiFi/GPS get a 8820
the full buffet would include the camera, which is not availble...YET

[steedtek]

yea since i have 2 years to wait this contract for my pearl hopefully in that time they have GPS/WiFi/camera and 3g in bb, i'd sell a kidney i swears

[doctibby]

What I have heard is T-Mobile said they are getting the Curve 8320 but would not tell the release date. When I told her that I heard it was 9/24, she laughed and said if I knew why ask. She did not know anything about 8820. I am eagerly waiting for the 8820 with T-Mobile. I can care less about the camera, it is usually of poor quality and I have no use for it. I would much prefer the Wi-fi and GPS which the 8820 has and not the 8320. The 8320 will have Wi-fi and a camera but no GPS. From what I can find neither one will have 3G or Edge technology. These technology will likely become obsolete soon to make way for newer technology.

I still don't understand why people running around about wi-fi.Surly it would be nice to have it for things like voice over ip (skype etc.). Firstly, it will eat the battery like crazy. Secondly, honestly is it really that necessary to use blackberry at home when you can use a laptop or stationary pc. And finally, most of the times I am not near hot spots when I use my blackberry. Just like now I am outside the city. Cheers!
