Anyone?

i've heard that it is not going to have a leather back. i can see the aesthetic value but, being vegan, i really hope there is NO leather!

Im amazed RIM havent bought out an update on the Storm first to further challenge the iPhone

Definetly will be a hands on test first, but if what they say is true, a mix between bold and 8900, I will be getting one. But will also keep my 8330, this device has been error free since conception.

It isnt real leather. It is the same stuff a car dashboard is made of. 'leatherette'.

Going to have to agree here. Also, Blueberry, OS 5.0 offers much much more than just support for BES 5.0.

OS 5.0 doesnt seem that impressive based on what has been leaked so far. IE:

BlackBerry OS 5.0: your first looky looky : Boy Genius Report

BlackBerry OS 5.0 Features Leaked | BlackBerryNews.com

Got any thing to share re features?

the back of the Niagara is plastic, shiny black with a carbon-look in the middle.

Looking into my crystal ball and can see future threads...Niagara Sucks, I hate Niagara, Where's my Niagara Beta OS, etc, etc

Edit: I prefer AT&T's 3G to Verizons Rev A.

I haven't seen this posted yet, but I could have overlooked it.

Seeing how it is replacing the 8830 WE, I assume it can be unlocked and used on ATT. That said, CX, you stated it can be used on HSPA network as well. Does that mean I could unlock it and use on ATTs 3G network????

Also, I take it is running OS 5.0.xxxxxx. I wonder if any one knows if the Bold is getting this OS at some point?

Dang, I wait a bit longer to buy a Storm and the Niagara pictures are up. Storm v Niagara....probably one of the toughest choices I've made.

I'm pretty sure it's going to have a Bold-like keyboard. That's what it looks like from the pics anyway.
