Agreed.

I see the BB appealing to a wider audience (i.e.: mass consumers) because in many cases it's a better device than Windows Mobile or Palm.

Opening the case of the Motorola HS850

Does anyone know how to open the case of the HS850? It appears sealed but who knows?

There's something rolling around inside of mine - annoying. I've never dropped it so not sure what came loose.
