Hey guys - I am hoping you can help me.

I am a cell one customer in Alaska and am getting pressure from my work to get a Blackberry. I would be getting a partner line and unlimited data and still keeping my current phone. After looking at the different models I think I'd prefer the 8310 over the 8800. I figure I have 3 options:

2) Hold out to get the 8310 through AT&T (are their plans any better or worse?) What date could that happen - December 9?
3) Buy an unlocked 8310 now through ebay and get cell one sim card. Will this work?

Thanks in advance for help and guidance you can give me. The AT&T merger is exciting stuff in Alaska - we don't hav...

I agree with Doc. The 8800 is big and dumb. The 8310 serves up all the same features plus a camera (2 MP), and the BB 4.2.2 software, so the media management is a lot more user friendly, not to mention that it's a lot better aesthetic design... or get an unlocked one on eBay and start using it now.
