Pinstacker miles_troope reports that he got to hold a BlackBerry 8800 in his hands. Apparently it is a test BlackBerry with his employer.What did he have to say about it?
No camera.
It did have WiFi.
It was heavier than he expected, heavier than the 8700. He said it was also very slim.
He did report he was not able to connect it to any WiFi hot spots.
He did not have it around long enough to see how the battery held up under usage.
He commented that it is a larger 8100, the keys are compact, but it wasn't hard to type on. I personally was a little worried after holding an 8100 this week.
One last item of note, the poster is in the UK.
1. Okay. That would make it almost on par with Nokia's E61. Almost because I do not think this will support 3G.
