I was wondering the same thing. Looks to be the same as the 9000 except trackpad and physical buttons are different.

Hints are pointing to a metal chassis, probably to give the thinner device structural integrity.

yeah. "machined" metal, I believe was the term they used.

Yeppers, no plastic. True metal. The original 9000 felt good, sturdy, & og high quality. The metal bezel of this device enhances that feeling even more.

I am wondering where the antennae will be placed on this device? RIM would not go there, or would they?
