Motorola Q Compatability

I know that the Q is coming out pretty soon, you can pretty much pre-order it. Will it be compatible with T-Mobile's blackberry email push?
I have a Blackberry and would like to get the Q but don't know if it would be compatible especially being on the Blackberry plan. Can anyone comment? 😉

Actually, it was my understanding that Vzw was going to be the 1st to get the Q maybe I'm wrong???

there are no pricing situation as of right now...

the phone is supposed to come out in quarter 1 of 2006.

from what i have talked to some Rimm officials they said that the Q might use Rimm's technology but it is unclear at this time if that is the case. rimm and motorola set up a licensing deal to use their BES and BWC.

i would stay tune.

yes that is correct. windows mobile 5 to be exact, however, they can use rimm's technology. (they signed a licensing deal as mentioned earlier)

Thanks for shedding some light to my question. Is it safe to pre-order? http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/stor e/phonesunlocked.asp or should i just wait till it comes out in the US? 😕

my opinion? wait.

motorola already has mentioned it is coming in quarter 1 in 2006.

after this day will start the 4th quarter of 2005. so another 3 months to wait.

Is it not cheaper to pre-order and have it already unlocked so that when you go out of the country you don't have to worry about unlocking it?
