What's with the Rumor about the BB Pearl going to Verizon/Sprint on May 7th. I think someone got this wrong. Maybe an 8800 series but there hasn't been any info on a Pearl. Any concrete info/pic of just what Merrill Lynch Says.

I doubt it will be 850/1900MHz CDMA 900/1800MHz GSM though. Still pointless for any business customer who travels overseas and needs a truly global phone.

(Verizon will never be a choice for me due to its network limitations. It's 2007! and in this world of communications we are not to be limited by location. GSM, yep! that's where is at!)

"So, what you gonna do when the walls come falling down? You never move; you never make a sound...

The 8830 (cyclone) will be CDMA/GSM. I'm not sure where Merrill Lynch got the BB Pearl info from, their isn't even a pic. Maybe they got confused because the 8830 is like a Pearl but with a Full qwerty.
