Let’s see the Javelin proof! Do you have some info about when it will be released and on what US carrier? I am waiting for this phone, but only if it is coming out soon. If not, I might just jump on the Storm bandwagon.

I saw it at AT&T store at Burlington Mall store. Didn’t know, didn’t know what I was looking at. Now I do and I going back for one.

I don’t understand why people think this is expensive. This is still a fully-functional Blackberry. There are dumbphones being sold for the same price if not higher. Why would anyone sell this device for $50? Be realistic, people.

I think it’s still pretty cheap considering that it still is a smartphone, but just with a consumer friendly form factor…The Blackberry plans on T-Mobile are a really good deal and will save you some moolah in the long run…love Blackberry and T-Mobile! Now, I want some Javelin news! Javelin news! Where’s my Javelin news? lol…Oops, I mean Blackberry Curve II.

I wish VZW would get on the ball with unveiling their new smartphone lineup. I am a devout customer but far too much time has passed waiting for new BBs or even the sch-i770 when AT&T is coming out with essentially their third Samsung smartphone. What gives? TMO shouldn’t be the only one to have this BB flip.

Actually got to use this and the Javelin today…

It was alot slimmer than I thought it would be.

And the resolution is good too.

I have proof of the Javelin… unfortunately no proof of the Pearl Flip.

But believe me! It’s not as thick as people have said!

I agree, the Blackberry phones are starting to look more classy. I read an article about Mike Lazaridis, Blackberrys CEO, hiring watch makers to design the upcoming Blackberry’s…and I can see it in the new Blackberrys…very cool.

P.S – Today would’ve been the day the Bold came out…so sad…let us mourn…lol.

I wish T-Mobile had the silver one available at launch, instead of just the burgundy one. Definitely looks the most classy out of all of them.

I feel bad for the Blackberry Bold…I’ll just wait till that gets released first before deciding to upgrade my pink Colorwared Curve to this Pearl Flip…
