I talked to a corporate gal who works for one of the largest Honda dealers in our area (Virginia) and asked her if she could check on the availability of any Blackberry Pearl within the 16 dealerships her company oversees.

She first kinda chuckled a bit...

Then told me... its funny you ask because normally I wouldn't know much about this stuff but recently had a conversation with a co-worker about the Blackberry Pearl Fit.

She gave me... what she called... the inside scoop.

She said the only way I would get a blackberry pearl Fit was to special order it. The reason is that so many people want the Blackberry Pearl... Honda cannot even keep up with the special orders coming in. Therefore... no Blackberry Pearls will be sent to dealership that are not already special ordered. So if you see one on a Honda lot... it will have been already sold!

Evidently the current waiting period is between 6 to 8 weeks... but that could get worse if the orders keep coming in for that color. (I'm sure they will.)

That's the story as of Sept 22,2007.
