@Denver: Hearted; the original article is just so off base it's not even funny.

@Tetsuooooooo: Salesforce and Citrix are both available for Blackberry as well.

@parcaelum: Note that range is highly dependant on the bandwidth used by your devices. The range advertised by most brands are for highly compressed voice. Streaming high bitrate music to a stereo headset will have a much, much shorter range

@madjack1987: Even with it being easier to provide for a small island, this is no justification for the US, as we get better reception up here in Canada, an even larger, less densely populated, country.

@George P. Burdell: My star's on Gizmodo. This is Lifehacker.

No mention of the obvious benefit of not covering the internal antenna with your hands (or shorting it by touching a specific spot, as is prone to happen on a certain phone)?

@G_Money21: They have the best QWERTY keyboards around, only matched by Nokia E-Series, good antenna design, good sound quality as a phone, superlative battery life and durability.

@geolemon: They're in a tough spot in North America and Western Europe, but they are getting a lot of growth in other markets (India, Latin America, Africa).

@lantic: Nah, at this point I think it's just become a meme. While I agree it hasn't been best in class, there's a lot less wrong with its UI than is made out to be (the main problem with Nokia smartphones being something that most of the haters have no clue about: namely not enough RAM and flash memory).

@lantic: And it's a shame. I see myself reading Engadget a lot more these days. At least, they don't ignore the #1 selling smartphone platform on the planet.

Since S60 3.2, Symbian does wireless sync as well.

@Weihovah: Were you going for irony?

@tande04: No, but my Symbian phone does, and it does have a wi-fi sync feature, and it's not limited to media.

Looks sexy, for a Blackberry. I'll have to give it a looksie once it comes out.

@Jonathan Butler: Blackberry OS (and Symbian) typically have lower requirements on the hardware than iOS or Android. Plus, with the new graphical libraries and GPU, this is likely more than powerful enough.

@Boomdiggity!: No. It means that it's getting wireless music synching, as the Zune does it.

Yes, I would MOST CERTAINLY pay to play something like this.

@Jnas: Not the full story mode, but you get a rather good recap, plus all the "Teach Me, Boobie Lady" episodes from Calamity Trigger.

@emag: And then came the September that never ended...

@Diode: Trick question. The answer is: it hasn't.
