Gizmodo got their hands on an AT&T branded BlackBerry Curve 8900. It looks like AT&T will have a big seller on it’s hands…
RIM excels at many things, but keeping secrets ain’t one of ‘em, so we’d eyeballed the BlackBerry Curve 8900 (nee Javelin) quite a bit before this AT&T-branded one dropped in our laps. It’s a Bolder version of the current Curve that improves it in basically every way: Lighter, tighter, but more powerful-and it feels like a phone that was produced in 2008, not when you were still keeping your 2006 resolutions.
Like a lot of BlackBerry users, I can’t wait until the BlackBerry Storm comes out, however, I know that a lot of Verizon subscribers want a new device but would prefer one with a physical keyboard.
I wonder how long it will take Verizon to get the BlackBerry Curve 8930?

AT&T branded? WTF? Thought this was destined for T-Mobile, since AT&T *demanded* a 3G Bold. What would they want with a Curve that’s “only” 2.5G? Really hope this hits T-mo soon if not first. They need a new BB (flip don’t count) to stay competitive. Had hoped RIM had learned the harsh ways of AT&T and would look for a new mistress.
(Cartman voice) Looks schweet!
Man that Javelin looks mighty nice.
The pic differs from the one posted in the BGR hands-on. Do we know which is more likely to be “almost release” hardware vs “beta” hardware?
I would be waiting for the newest blackberry storm
How much “tighter” is the Javelin? ie dimensions compared to the curves we know (8300’s)?
Sorry but AT&T still has 3 times the BB users that TMO has, if not more. AT&T will always get the newest BB devices, with the exception of the Storm.
Exactly right gquaglia, AT&T is RIM’s largest provider in the US, it only makes sense that RIM would try to first serve AT&T and the largest amount of it’s customers.
Will Verizon get the Blackberry Javelin? I hope so because I really like it and it will indeed be a big seller on the Verizon network. What is the BlackBerry Curve 8930? Is it the Javelin also?
hii i want to buy a blackberry but which one is better curve 8900 or bold?
