Rumor has it that Research in Motion has been testing the next iteration of the BlackBerry Style and it is said that the device has a touch screen. It isn’t clear if the both screens will be touch interactive or just the main screen, however, the rumor also states that RIM is working on making the BlackBerry Style 2 dual hinged, allowing it to open in both portrait and landscape mode.

Check out the promotional video for the new BlackBerry Style 9670 then head over to our poll and tell us what you think about RIM’s first clamshell BlackBerry with a full QWERTY keyboard. The BlackBerry Style 9670 launches exclusively on Sprint October 31st and will cost $99.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate on a 2-year service plan.
In case you haven’t already heard the news, Research in Motion and Sprint have officially announced the BlackBerry Style 9670, RIM’s first BlackBerry Flip Phone with a full QWERTY Keyboard. One thing that you can say about the Style is that it is a polarizing device. Most people fall into the love it or hate it it with a passion category without much in between. Comments here on RIMarkable have been fairly negative towards the Style, but, I concede that more people are likely to comment when they don’t like something compared to when they do.
We figured that we would try to get a better sampling of people’s opinion of the BlackBerry Style, and, what better way to do that than with a poll…

So, promo materials for the BlackBerry Style 9670 have started to appear in Sprint stores. One thing that we should note is the the 9670 is again being referred to as the Style. Whether it be called the BlackBerry Style or BlackBerry Oxford… quite honestly we aren’t sure, the BlackBerry 9670 is pretty much a love it or hate type device. I find myself in the latter category which probably means the Style will do awesomely well.
Word on the street is that the BlackBerry clamshell, a.k.a. the BlackBerry Style, ughum, we mean the BlackBerry Oxford will be officially released exclusively on Sprint October 31st. The device will set you back $99.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate and a $50 instant rebate. The BlackBerry 9670 Oxford will run BlackBerry 6 out of the box…

It’s no big secret that I am not a big fan of the upcoming BlackBerry 9670 clamshell, nor has the device grown on me since we first stared hearing about it back in the Spring. The clamshell redux is coming however it and is rumored to have been branded the BlackBerry Style.
I am sure some people will love the BlackBerry Style, but, I clearly won’t be one of them…

Usually, when I don’t particularly care for the style or design of a new BlackBerry when images of it start to leak, I warm up to to point of tolerating how it looks by the time it comes out. Take the BlackBerry 7130e for example. I didn’t really like how the device looked the first time that I saw it, however, it became one of my favorite BlackBerry devices ever. I can’t, however, say the same thing for the, yet to be officially announced BlackBerry 9670 Clamshell. This is jut my personal opinion, but, the 9670 is the must unappealing device I’ve ever seen come out of RIM.
