hahaha *waits for Luka to come in*

but ya, I'm pretty sure its NOT BBE compatible...

There is POP3 and IMAP support in the phone, so you could probably get your email that way, but wouldn't be "push" (set it every 5 min or something)...but you couldn't use a Blackberry plan on it...

It's not really a great email device...if you want a blackberry alternative, you could get a Nokia E series, some of them have Blackberry connect, I think you can get it for the Treo 650 also...

its definitly cool...but right now, not the best option, no warrenty (not sold here, and you'd have to unlock it), might get messed up with future updates...

I was tempted to drive down to the states and get one, but decided not to, not worth it for me right now

definitly cool though...

I heard that the free unlock (iUnlock) modified the baseband, which was NOT restored by iTunes...I think you can try and restore it, but I think its more complex then the traditional restore in iTunes

I might be wrong though?...

hmmm, interesting...

I though "iUnlock" was the free one (while iphonesimfreeunlock or whatever was the pay one)

what are people using?

I might have to reconsider my decision to not get an iphone...lol

Ya, but I'm not surprised, whenever something like this comes out, people will always try to charge ridiculous amounts...

for the person who doesn't follow what is going on, they will probably get suckered into paying...oh well, knowledge>*

I've decided not to get an iPhone, too much trouble right now, current phone is still going strong...

the 8800 is a pretty bad *** phone...although not sure feature heavy, its pretty damn well built, and feels quality...
