This is not the blackberry gemini. The gemini doesn’t use a track ball…… That is just a jav.

It’s because the iPhone iSucks. With all their genius and proprietary devices, thererare all kinds of incompatability issues.

My opinion: after the glitz and glamour wears off, the iPhone is just an overpriced smartphone. Itonly works well with other Apple devices, and that’s what the designers always intended.

Be smart, see through the “gold plated” iPhone, and drop it for something better, easier, cheaper, and more compatible.

Nicole is right– this phone is coming to T-Mobile at the end of August or early September.
Hopefully it will sync well with my Mac!

So many small business owners need a good querty phone to sync with iCalendar. The iPhone does that well, but of course, it doesn’t have a real keyboard, and of course, it isn’t T-Mobile compatible. Those of you that have dealt with the other carriers know what great service they have.

Sprint not ripping off? HA! My mother-in-law has Sprint service and it’s not any better than my AT&T service. She’s waiting for either the BB 8900 or this BB 9300 to finally arrive so she can switch.

I know this is a old post but wronnnng.
It couldn’t be that small. 3G chips are too big (hence the size of the Bold).

Must have got specs for a different project.

Am I the only one or does
a. the keypad on the bold suck.
b. Vzw suck big time.

IDK why there is so much hate on Att yes their customer service is bearable at best, but it’s no worse than Vzw and by far better then Sprint. Plus they spent millions building up a true 3g network in America, and Tmo is following suite. yet everyone still loves Vzw and their crappy CDMA network overpriced plans and ok customer service, and then they complain about how Att gets all of the good phones first, it’s called the rest of the world uses GSM so if you were to build a phone what type of radio would you put in it.

end rant.

It will be on T-Mobile first. It will be out 2Q or 3Q. It will be called the Onyx…..Just guessing, of course…..

What is it with you people and saying it will come to Verizon or Sprint? Don’t you understand that GSM phones will not work on CDMA networks? I can’t believe how many people are fake internet experts claiming this will go to Verizon. Newsflash, it won’t work on their network. This has to go to either AT&T or T-Mobile. Just face it, RIM hates Sprint. Verizon gets some love, but Sprint (especially with their iDEN network) always get screwed. And with the way they’re hemorrhaging subscribers and cash, that trend won’t be reversed soon.

I snagged every major “blackberry9300″ email address and domain in anticipation of this

@J-son,

Maybe the extra heat is the 3.2 mp cam? Or not haha.

How does this compare with the Bold???

Any hints as to which U.S. carrier(s) will get it? I’m sitting here getting more and more pissed off with T-Mobile given we’re coming up on a year since their 3G launch andd there’s still not a single peep from them on if/when they will have a 3G RIM device.

8900 is going to blow everybody out the water …. Touchscreen is overrated…!

I want to see a touchscreen on this. That’s the only thing they’re missing on these phones. Forget the Storm… I want a Blackberry that looks just like the one pictured above, but with a touchscreen.

And forget the silver. The color shown above would be the perfect color.

If the Pre comes out before a CDMA Niagara or something Bold or Curve 8900-like for either VZW or Sprint then I’m done waiting on RIM and moving on with something else.

Am I the only one that thinks Q4 ‘09 is ridiculously late to release a 3G Curve??

Unless they release this thing with some extra heat besides 3G I don’t see how this would entice me to purchase one Q4 at which point we’d probably see some real nice handsets.

These black keyboards are total BALLZ to type on in low light fuQue the darthvader styling..! – bring back a silver/white key board model. At least you can see that 100% in low light or even total darkness…

For numbers? red lettering on black?

Fart king stooopid!

Back to hugging my 8900…

(But I will beef hooked if I can see the fart king numbers on it.. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr)

I prefer the keys on the Bold. The best keyboard I’ve ever typed on, with very few typo’s.

I’d still get it. Larger screen, 3G, higher resolution, better camera…all welcome additions.

What’s the “Magnum” supposed to have?

The Gemini is the 8325 and will not have 3G

This will hit VZW, as soon as they go 4g GSM in 2014…

It would take that long anyhow to get a new bb on VZW.

Love the network, hate the waiting…i just want the bold (niagra, or whatever the feck they call it)…

By: SpanDee

SpanDee — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 23:21:34 +0000

Well while we are on for hopes, I sure hope this is the BB headed for Nextel and Metro, iDEN and CMDA/AWS in one. If we are only so lucky…..

Cause hell, that’d be magic if they can make a GSM phone work on non-GSM networks!!!

So when will the 3G, CDMA BlackBerry NIAGARA be released? Thought it was scheduled for Q1 or Q2(May) of ‘09.

Does anyone know?
