I am loving all these recent leaks of the RIM device roadmaps. We have already seen quite a bit about the upcoming CDMA lineup but we only had a general idea of the GSM lineup. Now thanks to N4BB we have a leaked slide of the 2011 GSM BlackBerry roadmap though it looks like it may be T-Mobile specific.
The slide shows the PlayBook coming out sometime around April which could be simply the GSM 3G version of the device or the launch of the PlayBook. It has the next generation Curve lined up for a July release along with a Bold Touch coming sometime in end of May or June. Also in the roadmap is the Torch 2 which is listed as “under consideration” but that could just be under consideration on if it will be launched T-Mobile.
All of these phones on the roadmap are rumored to be running OS 6.1 which is not the QNX based OS of the BlackBerry PlayBook. Hopefully the next gen devices will get the QNX treatment.
What do you think of these dates? I cannot wait to be getting the Bold Touch in May if RIM makes that date!
