Salomondrin was able to get his hands on a BlackBerry Stratus (Pearl2?) last night, and it’s a great looking device.  They’ve essentially merged the Storm, Bold 9700, and Pearl into one compact package.  Sporting a trackpad and the chrome edges that define BlackBerry devices as of late, the back looks just like a scaled down version of the BlackBerry Storm, complete with “Pearl” branding between the camera lens and the flash.  On the other hand, minus the print, the keyboard looks to be the same Pearl SureType device that BlackBerry addicts know and love (or hate).

Check out his YouTube unboxing video above (update: removed by YouTube), and a few more pictures after the break.

Update: Kevin at CrackBerry was able to get his hands on one as well – check out a few more pictures here.
