“Find & Name that BlackBerry” seems to be the new game in town. We have been guilty of playing quite a few times in the last year. The latest contestant is the knowledgeable Jibi @ BBnews.com.
He managed to confirm that the touchscreen Thunder is now officially the 9500 but that is not really new. Keep in mind [...]

I guess RIM only meant that the AT&T Bold is having battery life and overheating issues. CrackBerry.com has got a solid rumor going that the Bold will be surfacing on Rogers in Canada on July 25th. Thats a few days after the launch parties. If you are a Rogers user rejoice!

I am still missing the draw to the Javelin but I guess we need something to rumorize about. Engadget Mobile got to videotape the BlackBerry Javelin again. Once again it seems to be a dummy device. Once again nothing really new.

First things first. No we do not know where to download OS 4.5 for the 8830. With that done Matt just sent me an image that he posted on CrackBerry forums of his Verizon BlackBerry 8830 running OS 4.5. The specific version is OS 4.5.0.33. In guess Verizon is testing out the new OS. [...]

I am still trying to understand where the Javelin fits into the whole BlackBerry product line but I guess I will stay in the dark for now. Chris of Engadget Mobile scored some shots of a dummy BlackBerry Javelin that look authentic. It looks very similar to the Bold with one major thing missing. 3G.

Kevin at CrackBerry scored some awesome up and personal pictures of the upcoming BlackBerry KickStart. Not that I will ever go back to a suretype device but I know some people who are dying to get their hands on one. Personally I think it looks good but that screen looks really small…
Check out all of [...]
