come on sprint get this one I want it bad

ohhhh forgot 1st :-)

I have a HTC Touch waiting to go away so my Curve can have another Blackberry Friend!!

I'm in need of a new BB so let's go Verizon, be the first to launch

No Wifi

And according to the bands it should work on pretty much any network with 3G....

Am i reading that right???

I want it!!!!!!!!!!!

256MB of memory? Ridiculously low. BB has a real problem - which I only found out because of updating my OS on my 8830. Memory leaks, memory is very limited.

How can they expect the BB Apps Store to do well if there is no where to put the frigging apps?

It's criminal that the BB can't access a card as extended memory.

Who cares that you're first to post? What is wrong with people that they have to point out the blatantly obvious? So stupid!

My comment on this phone is that I can't wait to check it out. Should be a hot seller in Canada!

...it. Although I'm with ommoran on the memory trip. I just saw that the Pre's going to have 8GB internal storage? Seriously RIM, what's the deal? I dig the expandable mem capabilities of my 8830, no doubt, which the Pre doesn't have, but why not go ahead and saturate the features for all users (corp and otherwise) needs? Seems like a slightly missed boat to me personally. Regardless, I'll be picking one up as soon as the Yellow and Black releases it. Thanks Bla1ze yet again for a fab hookup.

Also, what's the word on the camera / non-camera versions? Heard a little about that a while back but nothing recently.

I heard an earlier rumor that the 9630 would have wifi on Sprint. I really hope so... C'mon Sprint!! This phone looks awesome!

i really don't know the specs for the first storm. are the comparisons that much different on the S2?

I have been waiting for this device for fucking ever. Hurry ir up, we want to give you money RIM and carriers, why wait?

think im going to have to go to sprint if they get this device damn u rim for ur crack damn u

so how come they don't expand the memory of these things? with all the tech these days they're still using 256 mb flash memory? >_< i mean how much harder or expensive would it be to upgrade that to a gig or more? flash memory go way up in gigs these days and this still uses mb. >_<

Still nothing on what processor is in it.

by chance will the storm and tour batieres be the same?

if so ive got 3 batteries =]

brutal.

Please just release this thing for verizon already I cant take all the leaked stuff w/o knowing when its coming ugh... Im really so tired of my storm even w the new software update!

damn verizon

A few people have asked me who would be getting the Storm 2. Well, here’s your answer ;-) .

One of BGR’s new ninjas sent in some information regarding Verizon’s upcoming BlackBerry releases. Check it out:

* All Verizon BlackBerry handsets launched after the BlackBerry Tour will have Wi-Fi
* The Storm 2’s screen does not press in like SurePress, rather it operates more like traditional capacitive touch screen panels. We’re not sure if the rumored TruePress is just localized haptic feedback or what, but we can’t imagine RIM abandoning their entire selling point on the Storm.
* We have no idea what to think of this part, but, our tipster said the BlackBerry Tour would be accompanied by a BlackBerry Atlas with the Atlas having Wi-Fi, not the Tour. Again, don’t flip out, but it’s just what was told to us by this particular tipster.
* BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8230 release is “imminent”. We’d say May release, June latest.
* 8230 specs… EV-DO Rev. 0, 2.0 MP Camera, 3.5 ounces, Flash 128 MB, RAM 64 MB, SD Card - Expandable to 16GB, Usage/Standby - 220 min. / 216 hrs.

BG believes this new ninja to be credible and he tends to be on the right track with leaks. As for the BlackBerry Atlas…this was kind of randomly thrown into the mix. I’m surprised there hasn’t been a lot of information about the Atlas if it’s supposed to get released along with the Tour.

the storm 2 looks different!

I spoke to a manager in the verizon store and he said that verizon had told him that they had spoken to Rim and that they had spoken about a new blackerry coming out. I asked him about the new 9630 and he said that he only herd of the 9630 threw crakberry and youtube but he said that the phone they talcked to rim about was a blackberry with a full keyboard like the supposed 9630 but that it was a touch screen phone and that it did not have a trackball. I had seen a picture on crackberry and you tube. On a phone called pluto I belive it was called pluto 9900 it looked real nice. If people are getting excited and over strecing them selfs over the tour 9630 imagine the tuchscreen with a full key board if it is true it is in my opinion better than the tour 9630.
