Shortages of BlackBerry Storms Friday?

We were told all along there were more than enough Storms to go around on launch day, but a couple of our solid tipsters have hit us up to inform us there might be some issues. First off, we’re told that a last minute security flaw was found in the OS and they had to [...]

Nokia’s half QWERTY device, Wahoo, headed for AT&T gets pictured; Sorry Charlie!

Well, what do we have here? It seems as if it’s a never before seen Nokia handset! We don’t have a name to call it other than the internal codename, “Wahoo,” but what we can do is recap some of the specs of the device for you…

Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE
Dual-band UMTS/HSDPA (850MHz/1900MHz)
There’s two displays, one internal and [...]

BlackBerry Storm hitting Verizon on November 24th, pre-launch on 20th?

We just got our hands on this document detailing the latest release dates for the Storm on Verizon. Just be careful, we have all learned that target launch dates come and go quicker than a Sprint subscriber. With that said, this information comes directly from a good source of ours, so we’d wager on this [...]

Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1a hitting Best Buy next month

Thanks to our Best Buy ninjas, we’ve just got some screen shots showing that Sony Ericsson’s X1a (North American model) will definitely be hitting best buy early next month. The actual in stock date as of now is December 7th. The price? It will sell for a whopping $799.99. Hey, with Circuit City pretty much [...]

RIM’s internal plans for pre-paid BlackBerry service, BlackBerry in a Box

RIM’s already gone and launched its pre-paid BlackBerry server in Indonesia, but there’s a whole lot of countries that are probably foaming at the mouth. We’ve been saying this all along — pre-paid will take RIM to the next level. Why do you think Sidekicks got so popular? Because every single person in the hood [...]

First look at RIM’s MySpace for BlackBerry application

We had wondered where this thing went, and while we still don’t have a release date for you, we’ve got an exclusive first look at the application. It’s got a pretty familiar feel to it (read: Facebook app), and even though we haven’t actually played with the software itself, it does seem to be a [...]

Verizon’s BlackBerry Storm challenge hits San Francisco, 100 Storms given away

We just got a first hand report that Verizon is setting up a BlackBerry Storm challenge in San Francisco. Here is the deal… in Justin Hermann Plaza in downtown San Francisco, Verizon has setup what you see above. It’s a BlackBerry Storm challenge station consisting of a giant plastic box that shoots air from the [...]

The real reason the BlackBerry Storm doesn’t have Wi-Fi or tri-band HSDPA

You might have guessed it, but the reason is Verizon! We confirmed this a little while back with one of our really top-level sources (you know who you are!) and they did, in fact, confirm our suspicions — Verizon said hell to the no, we don’t play that up in here! Now, before the flamewars [...]

Bell and Solo Mobile Q4 line-up

One of our Bell ninjas has just come through for us in a huge way by sending us the entire Bell and Solo Mobile line-up for Q4. A lot of new devices are going to be hitting the shelves in time for the Christmas push and by the looks of it, Bell is ready to [...]

BlackBerry 9100 waiting in the wings?

Look, with the model numbers floating around, this wouldn’t surprise us much. Since, well, we’ve heard it before in our inner-circles. If what we’re told is to be believed, the logical assumption is that the BlackBerry 9100 is a 3G-enabled Pearl. No other information is currently available on the device, but as you’re well aware, [...]

AT&T Samsung Epix i907 unboxing

Well, this has been a long time comin’, hasn’t it? We just got our grubby mitts on that much-debated Samsung Epix i907 and boy… it’s thick! Counting out the AT&T Tilt, this is probably the thickest phone in their line-up. Now, you do get Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional with a touch screen with Haptic feedback, [...]

BlackBerry Storm hitting Best Buy November 16th?

To be fair, that’s what looks to be the in-stock date, not the street date as we’re told. We got our hands on a print out of a Best Buy product sheet which clearly shows the BlackBerry Storm’s store in-stock date. Suspiciously there’s no street date on the print out we got, but let’s be [...]
