   are you kidding me? they’re almost the exact same thing! wait, dont tell me..the 8300 doesnt have a camera. the 8320 does.

   when’s the expected release of the 8300/8320? Isnt there a version coming out before these two?

   What’s the difference? Is it that the 8320 has wifi and the 8300 doesn’t?

   In the absence of a Verizon CDMA version (shocker!) I’d have to go with the 8300, picking AT&T over T-Mobile. I so wish it comes out in April so I can finally fulfill my year-long dream of snapping my Motorola Q in half.

   I would have to say that if the 8320 and 8300 was given to me I would end up using the 8320 since I could access more information and at certain times faster is good. So then what else can we say. Live enjoy and keep giving us more things to crave.

   8320, Wi-Fi is a nice supplement to a data plan, and T-Mo is nice too!

    I like whichever one is coming to Sprint. If neither, then I hate them both. I will admit, I suffer from BB envy.

    I work for T-Mo and it looks as if T-Mo is getting the 8320 W/ Wi-Fi in the following months. Thats all WE (T-Mo Reps) know.

    Am I the only one noticing the darker colouring on the keys of the 8320?

    Or it could just be my eyes playing a trick on me…

    It looks like the colors shades are inverted on the phones. One has a darker top section around the screen with lighter keys, while the orther has a lighter top section and darker keys. It looks like the 8320 has the lighter keys. The phone on the left has a WIFI icon on the screen.

    It seem to be more like the 8100 + 8700 + wifi + camera = 8320 – wifi = 8300

    @ Won’t say:

    Any word on whether T-Mo will be getting the 83xx (Papa Bear) version that BG has described that has wi-fi, camera and GPS?

    I have been a T-Mo subscriber for a long time (since it was VoiceStream). Like the company, hate the phones. Why is it all they seem to get is low grade, plasticy shit that launches 6 months after it is available. I thought the US T-Mo was forming an alliance with T-Mo parent in the Fatherland to release the same phones here and there? About the only cool thing T-Mo US has launched in the last 2 years is the Dash. I like it well enough as a device but am not a fan of Windows Mobile, especially the Smartphone edition.

    I say bring on the good stuff, T-Mo, you aren’t going to acquire many new “high value” customers to buy onto your new high speed data service if you keep pushing bargain bin Nokia and LG phones.

    Hey BG, can you post some pics taken with either one of these units? Also, does the OS allow you to send pics via email or do you have to send them using MMS?
