- Poll: What device are you most excited for?
Interesting! Another device that will take 2 years to launch.
Ummmm me wait…..cause me want.
Man BG I don’t know what I want anymore? I guess I will believe it when I see it!!!
I just want the Blackberry Bold to be released! Is that too much to ask for? Geez…Bold where are you?
I really don’t think the glorified screen would be as crispy clear as they call it if its a touch screen….ever compared a tablet PC screen to a regular one?
Eventually something like that would happen but….I wouldn’t need it for the time being…wouldn’t want my fingers all over my screen though…
Waiting till 2009 is too long. I’ll be getting the Bold or Storm (which ever comes out first) and be happy until the next best thing from Blackberry is released.
If they are going to do that, then why not just slap a javelin or curve keyboard onto a storm?
If you put your curve next to an iphone, you notice that the keyboard + trackball + send/end/menu/back keys would fit perfectly, and still leave you room for a touch screen.
Sorry, just never been a fan of the 8800/Bold keyboards. Gimme some space in between keys.
sounds great, I was wondering if any of the Bold giveaway winners had recieved the prize’s havent seen any updates on the winning pictures????
I can’t wait to see some pics and some specs!
Here we go- the “why you should not get a Storm on Verizon” AT&T fanboy propaganda
Don’t get any blackberry right now- In two years they are coming out with one that will blow everything out of the water…
@theOutsider
I agree with you buddy. If this RIM Super-Berry is to be a success, listen to your peeps! Give us the touch and camera of the Storm, features of the Bold and that Curve/Javeling keyboard we all want.
Either way, that device will probably come out before the Bold anyway, huh?
I’m getting the Storm and then I will just upgrade later.
hello MAGNUM
C’mon BG, you can atleast post the name–> http://www.blackberrynews.com/2008/10/17/new-blackberry-magnum/
yeah an HSDPA berry in North America. The day that launches McDonalds will stop f*cking up my breakfast order.
I’m getting the Javelin on Tmo then waiting. I need a Curve sized device with gps AND wifi. Tired of using a puck. After I have a solid all-in-one device, then I can wait out until the next groundbreaking device.
Why the hell doesn’t RIM focus on getting the damn Bold out on at&t first? Are they trying to piss of their customers? Do they want to put more doubt into our heads about WHEN to buy a new BB?
Who gives a shit anymore? RIM has lost all credibility in releasing anything new, as far as I’m concerned. The can’t seem to handle their current projects much less new ones
2 points I want to make.
The bold was released by ATT last night.
My curve is starting to get scratches and I can’t keep waiting for a device from T-mobile. I have had this device since the launch party and its time to upgrade and there is nothing for me to move to! I have been caring for this device like a baby until another option is available and I am going to lose it!
I’m ready now and since I’ve joined the ranks of those without wanting to free think I’ll get my hands on a Storm ASAP.

Good shiz room. Good shiz.
I was always hoping the Bold was going to be that.
My Wishlist:
Bold
Thunder/Storm
PalmBerry – only if 3g or better.
Dude, Jason, seriously. Are you really going to spam a post where you stole the image, did a sloppy job of erasing half our watermark and then didn’t even link directly back to our original post? Smooth…
LOLZ. Busted. I could have done a better removal of the watermark with MS Paint!
Du
Honestly it’s like we’ll never actually buy a BB because we’re always waiting for the next big thing.
First Bold (I passed), Storm (considering it), Curve (also considering it), and now Magnum? Wow!!! This is unreal!!!
Go, RIM, Go!!!
Lol @ Jason. If you keep on waiting for the next best thing then you’re never going to get a phone. Look at HTC’s lineup and how quickly they’ve released phones. I’ll just get the Storm and be content for now.
