If this is so, I cannot *tell* you how disappointing it is. It's darn right offensive, LOL. This makes Hero look more inviting! - I must keep in mind that, all of this mayhem is in keeping with the leaked 2010 lineup.

Let's see...The Passion was leaked stating that there are 2 versions - Passion and PassionC. So, they are (were) 2009 releases pushed back a month - thus the "early 2010" reference (hoping, hoping, hoping!) .

Okay so, a January Passion release would make an April release of Bravo make sense. I cannot see them waiting idly by for four months for a release in this category. That's light years in phone-dom! - They run the risk of losing too much market share with this scenario. So little about this makes sense, though. Christmas is the big shopping season - why ignore it?
