Josph said he was impressed with the quality of the device. Are you kidding? How can you be impressed with the quality of a device you haven’t even touched let alone seen? I’m as interested as anyone over the 9000 or any other new Blackberry. I will continue to read and learn and wait.

It looks like they’ve done away with the charging contacts on the back.

Its not the device we see today that matters its what the device holds for us when its released. If the engineering sample shown is real then its pretty clear that RIM has the ability to pack everything you need into one single BB. I for one would like that BB.

Why do so many of you blast BG when he brings info to light! The device is in it’s infancy stage right now, any info is better then none! Keep it up BG, and ignore the clowns with nothing good to say. As for the device itself, looks pretty hot! If it drops with 3G, it will definitely replace my Curve!!!

Another BS story that everyone fell for from BG. I think I sent out a previous email to BG mentioning the next-gen BB with a touch screen but it went un noticed and unpublished. It will be something similiar to the voyager sporting an HD screen and a slide out keyboard.

Agreed, blah blah blah. No news hear, just more conjecture.

I was excited until I realized I am on T-mobile.. who knows when we’ll be up to bat. Hopefully I’ll be selling my 8320 & GPS puck by summer’s end. Craiglist + NYC listing = Same day BB Sale.

Thanks, Jibi!

Thanks Jibi for this interesting and intriguing information.

By the way, do you know of a firm date as to when the CDMA Curve will be released? And which OS it will have? Thanks.

Blah, blah, blah… All these BB updates really never do anything but recycle the same info ya’ll been spitting for over a year now. Come w/ some quality information or just zip BG.

If 5.0 doesn’t introduce a browser better than or equal to the iPhone browser, then it’s doomed to just being yet-another-enterprise BB. The bars been raised RIM, and the days of slipping under it are over.

Shouldn’t be that hard to do. The base of both the nokia and iphone browsers are both based on open source web-kit, and should be a breeze to port to BB.

p*sses me off everytime I try using RIM browser. Very rarely does a page render properly.

Yea a little fat but… i don’t mind it. The vadaphone device doesn’t look like those same pics. why is that?

Victor,
If you want to wait and see what the 9000 is like you can otherwise you should definitely pick up a Tilt.

This does seem intriguing and I’m all for it but I don’t know about the look, I like the Curve better. Maybe they could take all the new specs. and everything for the 9000 and just put it in the Curve’s body??? Like an incredibly smart model?

The story is that the device floating around isn’t a BlackBerry 8000 series. It’s going to be called the BlackBerry 9000. And that it’s coming with the 4.3.2 OS, not OS 5.0.

Sean — Sat, 19 Jan 2008 18:22:02 +0000

Yeah, am kinda unclear what the story is here.

victor — Sat, 19 Jan 2008 18:10:13 +0000

Nice??? So what is the deal exactly, is this device(pictured) the 8xxx or is it being rebranded as the 9000. I am looking forward to it but might have to actually wait for it with another device. Now I have a question to anyone who cares to answer. If you could choose between the ATT Tilt or the 8310 which would you choose… or would you just wait and pray they release the 8xxx(if thats coming out) soon? As the 9000 seems will take a while?

Ah why can’t we get a simultaneous CDMA release? I am really sick of Verizon not having a full-QWERTY BB with camera. Don’t get me wrong, I love my 8830 but would really like a camera.

By: Jacob

Jacob — Sat, 19 Jan 2008 17:08:15 +0000

do the specs stand? 3G, Camera, Wifi, GPS, Bluetooth?

This will be my next phone if the specs stand……OS 5.0 doesn’t hurt either

WES is only 18 weeks away! (
