    The BlackBerry Magnum seems like it is the updated version of the Blackberry Curve 8900 that just came out in Feb. The major difference that I could kind is that it will be also supporting 3G. I have T-mobile. They should be able to get this phone since T-mobile just released their 3G network. ;( I hope T-mobile gets this phone!!!

    Please note that this story is based upon rumor and/or speculation.

    The Boy Genius Report has received details on three unannounced RIM BlackBerry smartphones, code named the Onyx, Driftwood, and Magnum. All three smartphones are believed to be in the 9000 series, and supposedly include 3G support, WiFi, and a full QWERTY keyboard. The trio of smartphones is also believed to pack in a built-in GPS receiver and camera, indicating these might be consumer-oriented handsets.

    The BlackBerry Onyx is thought to feature a 480×360 pixel resolution display, and is apparently destined for AT&T’s lineup. The BlackBerry Magnum is also reportedly going to AT&T, and seems to have the same feature set as the BlackBerry Onyx. The BlackBerry Driftwood does not have a confirmed carrier, but is believed to have UMA support, which could hint at T-Mobile USA being the targeted carrier.
