I am anxiously awaiting this phone and will be getting one as soon as possible. I tried the Curve and loved it and I am holding out to upgrade for the Bold. I really think it will surpass everything out there….HURRY!!!!! I WANT ONE!!!!!!

@Bg

This is the first time I have seen you talk or link about the bb 9000 hands on review. It is more to do about covering it then just linking it.

Listen, I can careless if those guys get their site mentioned or not. It’s just that my self and many others come to your site for the latest info. Specially for bb for me. If you can point to the blog or story in which you/staff posted about bb 9000 hands on review, please tell me. I did not find anything.

Again, I can careless about other sites names/links/whatever being mentioned as I don’t have a stake in, it’s the news/story man!

I’m keeping my fingers crossed on this one. Hopefully it comes to at&t first then Sprint. Either way, I’m still getting it once it comes out.

@ sonny

You have to be kidding right? To say that we didn’t link because it’s on another website is ridiculous. Have you even read any of our posts? Every single one of our articles that’s not exclusive has a link to the original story. Much respect to CrackBerry.com for getting their hands on a unit.

I lost all respect for you bg. You purposely ignored huge news like a hands on reviews of the bb 9000 because it was from another website?? If it weren’t for those exact sites that actually REPORT new stuff, you site wouldn’t be this popular and I sure wouldn’t know of it.

I am sure I am not the only one…

ChrisNYC,

You might see Jim Balsillie wearing “jeans and a black mock turtle neck sweater” but trust me, Mike Lazaridis will liking be wearing business casual.

And y’all go to http://www.crackberry.com for all the info you want to know about the BB 9000 that Kevin has been posting since he received his order of a BB 9000 from eBay.

Keep on Crackin’,

- CB

Tdawg – agreed.

And why are you folks asking BG for a release date? Its gonna be announced…impatience is a non-virtue.

i wonder if t-mobile is the favorite for the first carrier…

Anyone who goes to WES needs to go directly to the memory available and see how much on board memory it has.

I find it funny that there is a post about the release of a sweet new blackberry (9000), followed by a post about the Curve just now hitting Sprint. Hilarious. I love at&t.

Nice job, RIM. Develop a phone with great features on the inside, then make it bigger and uglier than the Curve. Genius.

I had one in my hand today, that screen is sexy, the touchscreen is due in September though, so I think I’ll resist this for the time being

I guess this will delay the release of os v4.5 so they sell more hardware.

release date??? come on, bg!

He probably tried to use the iphone as a business device as I did and found out it was a total failure. I had to sacrifice that fabulous iphone screen for real business features on the BB

@ Eddie
you’re gonna replace your media oriented iphone with a business minded Blackberry? The two devices are literally the opposite of each other.

Exactly! Sprint/Verizon are just now getting the Curve almost a YEAR LATER!!!

@ mikeypants- Ya know I was thinking the same thing…but you beat me to it…

I think it is a CYA for BG. Just a link, no discussions.
