Although not a total redesign, the new and improved BlackBerry 8800 does include some great features. From a navigation cursor to built-in RSS feeds this baby is hot! The internet browsing is very zippy with WiFi and even without. It speeds along like the BlackBerry your used to: only faster. Click on for the full Boy Genius Report: BlackBerry 8800 Internet Browser Walkthough!

You click Desktop View and then can scroll left, right, up, down, and select links. Select with what though? A mouse!

When hovering over a hyperlink it will automatically change to a pointer.

If the cursor is over a text-entry field it will again change.

    Good info, bad pictures. May I suggest one of the screenshot utilities to capture images from the handheld itself.

    The Pearl includes the RSS functionality of which you speak, it’s not new nor is it exclusive to the 8800.
