Um.. Hate to burst your bubble, but that is an 8100 and not an 8120...
Dhomas @ Jan 28th 2009 9:30PM
I second that. It's definitely an 8100. It has the smaller buttons next the pearl. Subsequent models (8110-8120-8130) had larger send and end buttons which were not separated from the number keys by that little bit of plastic.
Louis @ Jan 29th 2009 10:27AM
Yep. The keyboard also has more of a wave pattern on the 8120.
Chris @ Jan 28th 2009 9:26PM
Yes that is a 8100, ouch!
Rick @ Jan 29th 2009 12:23PM
Yep, definitely an 8100.
Woot! Now I can call up my Fido customers who previously didn't carry Blackberry accessories and sell them some shiznat :)
