@Rando: This is supposed to have the same processor (624mhz) as the Bold. Bold is running 4.6 OS where this is supposed to be running 4.7 OS. If the Bold is a new and highly-upgraded platform (4.6), how would this not be?

Yeah, this is really funny actually as noone I’ve talked to who actually uses a Blackberry seems enthused about this device. It just screams ME TOO at the iPhone, whereas the Bold is actually a new and highly-upgraded platform over existing 7000 & 8000-series devices.

I hate Verizon. And to be honest, a touch screen bb doesn’t really appeal to me all that much. I like just the normal physical keyboard.

So if this comes out on verizon does that mean that they won’t release the bold on Verizon for a while? Even if it comes out CDMA?

Robb, Do you have any predictions on how popular this will be? I mean in all reality, everyone I’ve talked to hasn’t seem too excited about a touch screen BB. The only person with some interest was my buddy that actually works for Verizon.
