Blackberry Photos & Non-Existent O2s

Blackberry fans anticipating the 8830 can find pictures of the said device courtesy of Boy Genius Report. You can salivate further here.

Those waiting for the Xda Zinc will have to wait no longer. It's not good news though. That's because there's nothing to wait for anymore.

Such is the case here, where O2 first delayed the ASUS-supplied Xda Zinc -- a rather delicious Windows Mobile QWERTY slider, if we do say so ourselves, replete with 3G data -- and now has apparently deep-sixed it entirely, claiming it wasn't up to snuff with its "testing requirements." To be fair, O2's Xda line of Windows Mobile-based devices is deep and wide enough to accommodate nearly any user's needs, Zinc or no, so we're not going to be sending any flowers or cards expressing our condolences. If anything, ASUS might be the one needing consolation here, with the Zinc possibly proving to be a breakout handset for the company in Europe's white-hot smartphone market.

Too bad, folks. Maybe it's time to join the Blackberry bandwagon.
