Well don’t act so surprised no, the phone in the picture here looks like the Tour because that’s exactly what it is. Although RIM likes to call it the Essex, we’ll think about it as a pimped our Tour touting WiFi support. And yes, the trackball has been replaced with a new trackpad but other than that it’s the same Tour. We have no idea when the Essex is going to be available but we’ll keep you posted!
