Rumor: AT&T May Skip Past The BlackBerry Bold 9780 And Go Straight To The BlackBerry Dakota

January 24, 2011 by Robb Dunewood 4 Comments

Many AT&T BlackBerry users have been wondering what the delay on the AT&T branded version of the BlackBerry Bold 9780 is seeing how the device has been available on T-Mobile since mid November of last year.  Rumor has it, however, that AT&T may skip over the BlackBerry Bold 9780 and go straight to the, yet to be officially announced, BlackBerry Dakota…

Fudzilla is reporting that its sources are stating that AT&T is move the last of it’s BlackBerry Bold 9700 inventory and that it has no intention on ordering more.

The new Bold, or Dakota if you will, is a bit closer than we were first led to believe. Apparently from the whispers we hear, AT&T could have the new member of the Bold family on the shelf for sale as soon as early or mid-spring, but significant quantity is likely not expected at the store and authorized reseller level till very early summer.

If the release scale for the BlackBerry Dakota, the first QWERTY BlackBerry with a fixed touchscreen, is accurate the rumor that AT&T may forgo the BlackBerry 9780 seems very plausible.  This seems to be the route that Verizon took with the BlackBerry Storm 9750, deciding to hold off on  the device possibly for the rumored BlackBerry Monaco.

Is The BlackBerry Style Headed To AllTel?

January 20, 2011 by Robb Dunewood Leave a Comment

We don’t know for sure if the BlackBerry Style is headed to AllTel, but, if putting the software that supports the device on your website is an indication that you eventually will, we’d say that the chances are good…

As many regular RIMarkable readers know, one of the primary reasons that I returned my BlackBerry Torch after getting it last year was because the device just seemed underpowered by current standards.  Earlier today BlackBerry Torch 2 specifications leaked out, and, one adjective that probably won’t be used when describing Research in Motion’s second stab at a a vertical slider which sports a 1.2 Ghz processor is underpowered.
