The BoyGenius claims that the 8520 will probably pop up around the beginning of October with the 9700 coming later that month.</p> <p><a href="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/rogers9700.jpg" rel="lightbox[]" rel="nofollow"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="http://www.berryreview.co/rogers-9700" border="http://www.berryreview.co/0" alt="rogers-9700" src="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/rogers9700_thumb.jpg" width="http://www.berryreview.co/279" height="210" /></a> <a href="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/rogers8520.jpg" rel="lightbox[]" rel="nofollow"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="http://www.berryreview.co/rogers-8520" border="http://www.berryreview.co/0" alt="rogers-8520" src="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/rogers8520_thumb.jpg" width="http://www.berryreview.co/158" height="210" /></a> </p> <p>Anybody as excited as me about the 9700 Bold?</p> <p>via <a href="http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2009/09/11/blackberry-bold-9700-and-curve-8520-shows-up-in-rogers-upgrade-system/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.boygeniusreport.com');" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">BoyGenius</a></p> <p><br/><a href="http://www.berryreview.com/2009/09/14/rogers-blackberry-bold-9700-curve-8520-show-up-in-upgrade-system/" rel="nofollow">Rogers BlackBerry Bold 9700 &amp; Curve 8520 Show Up in Upgrade System</a></p> http://www.berryreview.com/forums/topic/t-mobile-3g-bold-9700-onyx-gets-official-picture-1#post-2648 Thu, 10 Sep 2009 00:26:05 +0000 matt816 2648@http://www.berryreview.com/forums/ <p>The picture you see below is the Web’s very first official image of Research In Motion’s (RIM) latest–and currently unannounced–BlackBerry smartphone: The BlackBerry &quot;Bold 9700&quot; or Onyx, as it was codenamed.<br /> <img src="http://www.boostmobilephones.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/BlackBerryOnyxTMo_thumb.jpg"></p> <p>&quot;The BlackBerry ‘Onyx’ sports a premium experience and design with a high-gloss black finish and leather grain detail on the back. Boasting features such as high-speed 3G Web browsing, Wi-Fi calling, visual voicemail and support for corporate and personal e-mail options, the ‘Onyx’ will satisfy all your on-the-go needs. Also the phone comes preloaded with mobile applications from BlackBerry App World, including Amazon MP3 store for quick and easy music downloads and TeleNav GPS Navigator for turn-by-turn directions.&quot;</p> <p>You can see T-Mobile’s still using the name &quot;Onyx,&quot; probably because RIM hasn’t made the device official yet, but this is indeed the BlackBerry Bold 9700 that I predicted would be coming to T-Mobile. And it looks like my timeframe was dead on, as well, because T-Mobile says it plans to release the device before end of 2009. The new information was under embargo until early November, so you can expect an official announcement right around that time.</p> <p>The device will also support UMA, or Wi-Fi calling, as part of T-Mobile’s HotSpot@Home service. And it looks as though RIM’s and/or T-Mobile’s partnering with Amazon.com, too, as the device will ship with an Amazon MP3 BlackBerry app. Amazon already offers a BlackBerry app, but I’m guessing/hoping the one that ships with the Bold 9700 is a revamped version, as I’m not at all impressed with the existing app’s very basic functionality.</p> <p>One more thing: T-Mobile plans to release a white version of the new BlackBerry Curve 8520 next month.</p> <p>Finally, I’d like to clarify my policy regarding contact on upcoming products. I never break embargoes or NDAs that I agree to honor. Never have, never (knowingly) will. However, I frequently receive e-mail messages from PR representatives which include information on new products and a &quot;request&quot; to honor an associated embargo. That doesn’t work for me. If you send along information to me before I agree to any embargo, it’s fair game. </p> http://www.berryreview.com/forums/topic/rumor-t-mobile-3g-9700-coming-early-november#post-2096 Wed, 02 Sep 2009 00:03:46 +0000 Ronen Halevy 2096@http://www.berryreview.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Blackberry9700.jpg" rel="lightbox[]" rel="nofollow"><img title="http://www.berryreview.co/Blackberry-9700" height="270" alt="Blackberry-9700" src="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Blackberry9700_thumb.jpg" width="http://www.berryreview.co/175" align="right" border="http://www.berryreview.co/0" /></a>Tashanna sent me a <a href="http://www.tmonews.com/2009/09/christmas-coming-early-for-blackberry-lovers/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.tmonews.com');" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">link to TmoNews</a> which claims that a trusted source let them know that the 3G T-Mobile BlackBerry will be dropping sometime in the first week of November.
