Boy Genius Report managed to get a hold of a preproduction model and they’re saying it’s a phone worth waiting for. The voice quality is supposedly the best they’ve ever heard from a cell phone, the battery life is sufficient enough to last threw the day, the screen is just as good as the BlackBerry Bold, and the keyboard is “just right”. The best part about all of this is that RIM has managed to package all of this into a device considerably smaller than the Bold.
