My bad. The <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2007/11/21/blackberry-makers-plan-se_n_73730.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Huffington Post</a> had an article entitled the "BlackBerry Makers Plan Secret iPhone Killer." I remember a few years back when Nokia first came out with the E60, the media had called it a BlackBerry killer. I agree with you on the product response from RIM -- and I look forward to using the device. I guess I should have been clearer in my post. My bad.

I love my BlackBerry Pearl so I hope this is cool. I think calling it an "iPhone Killer" is completely off-base. I don't think anything could kill the iPhone except Apple itself with a newer product. I would think you, as an Apple fan, would know full well that predicting a competing product would "kill" the iPhone is a ridiculous conjecture. What you're seeing is RIM responding to the marketing wanting a touch-screen phone and offering their own version so they don't lose there BlackBerry users to the iPhone and probably also grab some users who don't like the iPhone.
