so maybe im confused... doesnt all blackberry traffic actually pass through a RIM owned server at some point, regardless of BIS, carrier, BES whatever? is that not true?

either way, the man never said blackberry was "carefully monitoring" every byte and bit of data. good job putting words in peoples mouths engadget!
change the painful capacitive dpad to a scroll ball like G1 and bb curve/pearl

add left/right soft keys and let me make home and back be start and ok if i want to!

scroll wheel instead of two up/down buttons on the side

in fact, put all the buttons on the side that my mogul had..

to sum up, buttons buttons more buttons. i get it, its called the touch line.. but sometimes i dont feel as touchy as you want me to be guys.

it could have been fine at least if that capacitive area at the bottom actually served some useful purposes, but for me.. its useless.
what an incredibly smug article this is!

as commenter james pointed out, had this 'other' site which was hosting a copy of the acid2 test hosted it correctly and fixed the urls to not be cross-domain.. the test would have worked. no one bothers to consider for once maybe microsoft didnt screw up.

its like putting a fresh water fish in salt water, and then when it dies telling everyone: "guys listen, it was the same fish... maybe that means fish can only survive in fresh water."

wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
oh snap i am such a fanboy!
thats the original live search app.. not the gps enabled one.
here is how you ACTUALLY get it:

youre expected to go to the sprint vision portal, and search for something. this brings you to a page of local results, with a link for "Precise GPS Location". Click that and you'll be taken to the sprint premium content store to download this program for $0.00.

or you can use this link to get to it directly:

worked for me on an A900. seems to be java only though, and not downloadable on a 700wx.
for those of you frantically searching for this app like i was and finding the previous comments posted here to be mostly useless... here is how you ACTUALLY get it:

hope that helps someone!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
