For those of you who are following the ongoing drama and news surrounding the Blackberry Onyx/Bold 9020, the last few days have been full of drool worthy news. A couple days ago, the latest word was that the trackpad was destined to a life of living on econo-Berries and that the trackball would remain the navigation tool of choice for the higher end models. However, that can now be labeled a fallacy as several inside sources who have claimed to see the actual unit with their own two Berry loving eyes have confirmed that the BlackBerry Onyx/Bold 9020 is indeed shipping with an optical trackpad bringing a new generation of navigation to CrackBerry enthusiasts everywhere. Whether or not the trackpad will appease everyone remains to be seen. So far, Kevin over at CrackBerry has had nothing but good things to say about it so I’m highly optimistic about the new experience. I definitely can’t wait to wrap my hands around the Onyx and give every feature a thorough flogging. So what is your take so far on the whole idea of an optical trackpad gracing Berries of the near future? Yay or nay?
**Pardon my quickie photoshoped trackpad above that looks beyond terrible
