BlackBerry Tour goes live on Verizon Wireless’ site
Well, our tipster was indeed correct. And let’s be honest here for a sec; we’ve nailed this puppy to the wall. Verizon faithful will be overjoyed to find out that the BlackBerry Tour has gone official (albeit without an official announce just yet). There isn’t a whole lot of information available on their product page at the moment, but hey, you’ve waited this long…
Thanks, Ben!




How different is this any different from the current Bold i have ? Seems to me like the same phone in a smaller package, meh
They should have had this ready for fathers day. It would have given my wife a lay up for a daddy day present. Why are marketing peolpe so lame???
YAWN
@ Moe:
Well my first guess is that the major difference between this and the Bold you have is the fact that this one is available on Verizon with CDMA rather than AT&T’s GSM network. Is that enough of a difference for you?
Wonder how many of those wetting themselves over the same tired form factor running the same dated OS with awful UI are also those who bashed the iPhone 3GS for arguably the same reasons?
Does anyone know what OS this is launching with?
I hope the build quality will be solid like the Bold and not like the Curve 8900, it feels cheap and that damn battery door needs 2 credit cards to not shake.
Can this phone be unlocked to work on Verizon and Sprint
w00t f1rsT!!!!
I can’t wait for this. I’m so looking forward to retiring my old 8703e!
No wifi – no interest
1st??? Idiot.
who gives a shit
cant wait to check out the new video/camera on tour by filming cumshots and maddd finger blasting action in da nightclubs of chicago! BB sucks for taking pics of ho’s all passed out!
guys, is it just me or the one thing that is still missing on the Tour is optical mouse pad in lieu of the clit?
Whats the difference it looks just like the curve 8900 except on Verizon.
For what it is worth…
I called VZW and they said the Tour will start shipping on the 19th. No word on price, but coming soon for sure!

The 19th of what?
its up on blackberry’s site:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/devices/blackberrytour/
the 19th of June
The 19th of June? Please don’t mess with my emotions….is that right?
I think the 19th is wrong. You have the devices mixed up. June 19th is the release date for the Blackberry Flip aka 8230 on Verizon.
Tour is on the rebate list for Verizon….prices effective starting JUNE 28TH!!!!
