That black looks a lot spiffier than VZ’s silver.
It shows the GPS in the picture. Is there a Sprint service for that, or will it be built-in for free use?

i believe it will be “locked” just like verizon’s.

definitely a better looking device, and it also has sprint’s tv service. i’m shocked verizon didn’t offer the same on their pearl 2 model.

Slush, it’s not black, although Sprint’s ad may look like it. The Sprint 8130 will be amethyst. Very slick from my perspective. Got this from the BB website: http://www.rim.com/news/kit/media/images/product/8130_amethyst_GEN_frontnoshadow.jpg

Oh ok, cool, thanks.

Just saw that the ad mentions Sprint Navigation, so I found it on the Sprint site. Hadn’t seen it mentioned here before, y’all can check it out here:

Looks just like VZ Navigator, but it’s kind of cool you can choose to have access for a month or just for the day when you need it. But it looks like VZ’s not the only one guilty of removing features.

I wouldn’t necessarily say Sprint’s locked down the GPS feature like Verizon. Sprint didn’t lock the GPS in the 8830 or the SIM card like Verizon.

hate to burst anyone’s bubble, but i just called a Sprint store in Manhattan and they said it would be available “sometime in December.” not sure who to believe at this point- perhaps the phone is only available online starting 11/23 and in stores the week after?
