9900

Here's an odd one - The good old BlackBerry Bold 9900 has appeared once again in ShopBlackBerry. Currently the device is available for pre-order only, with shipments expected to be despatched around June 18th.

Don't get me wrong - the 9900 was an awesome powerhouse for those of us that wanted the best communication device on the market, but that was a few years back. Where I find things a little strange is that the device is priced at $399 - the same as the BlackBerry Q10 which runs BlackBerry 10 and in my opinion does everything better.

What would be interesting to find out is whether the Bold 9900 is being manufactured once again or if it is just old stock that BlackBerry are trying to shift. Either way - I think there needs to be a price incentive for both consumers and business users to stay with BlackBerry 7 instead of moving forward with the times.

What are your thoughts on this one?
