You didn’t think we’d actually leave you hangin’, did you? To follow up on on yesterday’s post of the BlackBerry KickStart photos, we’ve got here a couple more images of the phone with T-Mobile branding and some interesting details on the physical design attributes. It looks like the screen is monochromatic with a color glow. Whatever that means. We’re imagining the border around the screen to possibly "glow" different colors and when the outer display is off, it’s invisible. You just see the shiny black face. There’s a whole bunch of colors set to launch with the KickStart and they’ll be anodized. Additionally, the back battery cover will either be a soft-touch rubberized finish, or a low gloss finish. We’d imagine some sort of customization opportunities for the end user with the low gloss finish. Perhaps you could get the battery cover with personalized images and things. Sounds fun. Ready for the hard specaroonies? Who are we kidding — you know you are!

I like the fact that it's a flip phone.

Not seeing any 3G though. Not that it really matters, I guess.

Are they trying to hit a lower price point with this?

Yeah, probably cause in their 3G post thing, they we're saying 3G phones, and stuff are now affordable, and stuff, so it looks like they are trying the cheaper approach to things. Somebody else said that about them waiting so long for 3G, guess they we're telling the truth

I'd be surprised - it's smaller (or at least due to the flippiness..) so it'll probably cost slightly more than the normal Pearl. 3G or no.
