The Tour distinguishes itself from the other BlackBerry phones with it's ease of use outside of the US.

I believe the Tour has more RAM.

The Tour sounds like a really good phone although its not a touch screen. But what I can't figure out is why Blackberry, Sprint and Verizon can't figure out that a phone isn't really as good as it could be anymore without at least a 5 megapixel camera and wi-fi? Although I'm in the market for a world phone on the Sprint network I will not buy another phone from any carrier without those features.

I called Sprint about an hour ago and the customer service woman had no clue this phone existed! Way to keep your employees informed guys!
