Code-named as the Gamma Ray, the Blackberry 8800 features a trackball, full QWERTY keyboard, WiFi, microSD, all these features and RIM's wholesome goodness. RIM did away with the track wheel on the side in favor of the track ball so that the design of the device is thinner. This is good, there's nothing wrong with thin and sexy. It's still way too early for price and availability - look for the 8800 Q1 of 2007.
