hi all,

there is a huge problem using this messenger on phones that are not supposed to have it. T-Mobile are getting lots of calls for customers who have installed it and its bricked their phones and cannot install any further updates. Please do not install if sent a link from a friend. Go to blackberry.com only or you will ruin your phones…

Wow, it looks pretty nice; but the question is..:

Will this be available for BB Curve or BB Pearl (8100, 8110)?

‘Cause i have a BB Pearl 8110, and i want this upgrade. Will this work on my BB? Or mine is too old? u_u
Please answer my questions!

That’s nice that their updating BB messenger. But Its functional as is.

How bout updating the SMS? Its anchient and that’s what I’d much rather see updated. Come on, even LG dumbphones have chat style texting! The kind where you don’t have to go and open each individual text… It gets irritating, expecially when your BB gets laggy from intense texting.

@The Boy Genius

In image 6 you show “Recent SMS Contacts”. Could we get a bit more information about what this is? Is it the long-sought threaded messaging?

I’ve been waiting for gps location sharing in BBM. For us who are shafted by AT&T and can’t run Blackberry Maps. Kudos to RIM

Looks great! One question…legistlation just passed in NC that you wont be able to text and drive at the same time. Will there be a way to talk to text with our BB messanger contacts??? Just a thought!!!

@JoeTour

Yeah, I have seen that video. Both of those devices are the tour. This device looks more similar to the onyx than the tour. Although this device looks different from crackberry.com’s onyx photos. The keys on the keyboard are shaped differently (or at least they appear to be). This could just be because they are pre-production devices and the design has changed.

This could also be a completely different device (driftwood or atlas or something else), but I would that that to be unlikely. Either way, I am almost certain this is not a tour.

@ codemaker
Is It the atlas? The onyx dosent have the silver metal around the buttons, it totally overlaps the side rim.(-the onyx) as a matter of fact, check out youtube and you’ll see that there is 2 types of the Tour, at least the reviewer thinks so, in the search box type in “I got my 2′nd BlackBerry tour” and you’ll see what I’m referring to. This pic may not be the Tour that its widely circulated But it is a far cry from the Onyx.

is it possible to download the new messenger??

By: codemaker

@JoeTour

It’s not the tour. Look at the next post on the site, it has a picture of a tour. Compare it to the phone in this post. Look at the beveled edges at the top of the phone and the bottom row of the keyboard. I thought it was a tour at first too

By: JoeTour

JoeTour — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 08:00:10 +0000

It sounds like you guys are blind or something. This is the thu tuh thu tour, the silver metal on the side bares it all. And the buttons don’t go over the side-edges as on the Onyx. Its the tour!!!!! That does not necesserilly mean that the Tour is gonna have it come release time, but its going to be incorprated in any upgrade some time.
Sorry Tmo guys, its the tuh tuh tuh Tour!!!

Rubbish they just panned the new N97. You don’t like the coverage here, go to another site.

BGR is the strangest website. Apparently your entire reason for existing is to pass along PR handouts and gush breathlessly about each one. There is not a product made that you do not wholeheartedly endorse, no matter how lame or stupid.

Very, very strange.
