Looks like Kevin's dream of having a White BlackBerry Torch 9800 just got one step closer. It really hasn't been in doubt that red and white would both be arriving, since the parts for them have been up on 3rd part retailer sites for a while now. But, more a question of when, exactly they would arrive. Engadget sources claim "mid to late November" for the release and to go with the red and white will also be an olive color. Sounds good, put me down for one sexy red one please. Anyone else? Oh ya, if that Samsung Galaxy Tab is something you're interested in as well, you can check out the full coverage over at Androidcentral for details on that.

J-ROLLS420 Sep 13, 2010 at 5:43 pm
i think the red/black ones going to vzw for sure, the colors match vzw's logo. if its on vzw in may '11 ill have to decide between storm 3 or torch unless the storm 3 has wayyyyy better specs
trtmazda3 Sep 13, 2010 at 5:45 pm
Damn, that red one is awesome. That's the exact color scheme I want my Bold 9700 to have.
McNooberson Sep 13, 2010 at 5:45 pm
I like the red one a bit more, but all I want is a black one with blue- backlit keys and a black-looking bezel like on the commercials!!
keith2k1 Sep 13, 2010 at 5:45 pm

LeanNSupreme Sep 13, 2010 at 5:53 pm
O.M.G.....sign me up for one!
netposer#cb Sep 13, 2010 at 6:23 pm
Red & White Torch would have both colors.
Don't you mean:
Red & White BlackBerry Torch 9800's coming to AT&T
Upon further review it looks like a "Red and Black" Torch and a White Torch

you fancy huh¿
McFly121 Sep 13, 2010 at 6:47 pm
What is the other dot on the white one next to the LED??? Could it be a front camera???
dgdave Sep 13, 2010 at 7:53 pm
Proximity Sensor
bselman#cb Sep 13, 2010 at 6:47 pm
Enough already with this AT&T Torch.....When will I see a CDMA Torch????
geek126 Sep 13, 2010 at 6:48 pm
I don't get it. White? No thanks, makes me think of a leisure suit. Red, maybe, but I'll stick to my black phone (9700). My gf is all about the white ones (iphone for play and 9700 for work)
maiia Sep 13, 2010 at 6:58 pm
WHITE WHITE WHITE WHITE!! C'MONNN ROGERS :D
crownr0yal Sep 13, 2010 at 7:33 pm
omg. RED and black? i think i might just be in heaven. its a little teeny bopper but i want it. my 2nd choice is the white.
drzmvpx809 Sep 13, 2010 at 7:40 pm
that red and black torch is a must have
djnick Sep 13, 2010 at 7:53 pm
no wonder BB users are dropping like flies. RIM spends more time on colors then the software
xtnded Sep 13, 2010 at 8:46 pm
Think the alternate colors will make it function better? Because the way it sits now, it's the biggest piece of garbage RIM has ever put out.
Bla1ze Sep 13, 2010 at 8:50 pm
No it's not, the Storm holds that reign and always will.

of phones singlehandedly made BlackBerrys relevant to the rest of us. Check the sales numbers.
rayjr13 Sep 15, 2010 at 9:30 am
Andunless you talkin curve sales numbers it's a marginally important topic
blutricky Sep 13, 2010 at 9:49 pm
Upgrading in December and I have to get the white one. Hopefully by then, they will be packaging a carrying case with the torch.
chuckh0308 Sep 13, 2010 at 10:55 pm
The red one looks sweet, but it needs some performance to match the looks!
I don't do white! Icky!
Oh yeah, I want the Galaxy Tab!
brendonlee Sep 13, 2010 at 11:25 pm
Hmm I wonder if they'll come with some fixes for the current hardware issues that some torch users (including me) are having (like wobbly screen)...maybe hardware v1.1?
scoot05redss Sep 14, 2010 at 12:02 am
How is that fair? I want the red one! Darn you AT&T, oh well, I guess I'll have to void my warranty!
Toronto Girl Sep 14, 2010 at 12:15 am
are the Canadian colours and the Rogers colours....maybe we will see them up here too?
vrs626 Sep 14, 2010 at 12:29 am
What about the 9780? Is AT&T getting the Bold refresh this year?
zensen Sep 14, 2010 at 5:04 am
i don't care for the white phone but at least those who primarily wanted a red or white phone no longer have to pay that ludicrous amount to colorshite.
having said that, release it in blue and I'll be sold!

im selling my black torch for the white one when it comes out.
tnewton3 Sep 14, 2010 at 10:46 am
I do like the color additions but I'm always keeping a case on my phone so it doesn't matter a ton. The white is where I would go so you could see the difference in the keyboard but again it's not that big of a deal to me.
thumper007 Sep 14, 2010 at 12:24 pm
Who cares! In Canada we're all PATIENTLY waiting to even get the original torch!
makaveli28 Sep 14, 2010 at 12:59 pm
I like the white 9700, but hopefully with the change in colors we get a Torch refresh with a faster processor and higher resolution screen. Come on isn't RIM famous for refreshes.
MILLYBLICK Sep 14, 2010 at 1:00 pm
That red is fiery
Hdesign3 Sep 14, 2010 at 3:46 pm
Am I seeing things, or does this torch look like it has a front and rear camera?????
joeldf Sep 14, 2010 at 4:00 pm
I'm still waiting to hear something about the phone that was announced way back a whole 5 months ago and is sold everywhere else around the world except by AT&T. The Pearl 3G. I really don't care about these other BBs. Where's the flippin' Pearl?
jlb21 Sep 15, 2010 at 9:14 am
I love the white. I wish the Bold 9650 came in white. But I wonder how dirty tje white will get over time.....
I do really like the red too.
rdsookey Sep 15, 2010 at 11:03 am
hopefully with the new colors, the price of the black ones will drop...this seems to be the history of cell phones..new colors come out...old colors drop in price...just colorware it..i dont know what the big deal is here..oh yeah, and wheres that new pearl??

Can I exchange my black Torch for an olive one!
tmw624 Sep 18, 2010 at 7:17 pm
Will Sprint be getting the Torch?
sophiegirl81 Oct 27, 2010 at 6:09 pm
I bought the orginal black Torch and just bought an really nice brushed pink aluminum case for it. They also have other colors for all you non-pink people out there. Literally mine looks exactly the same as the red/black torch, there is not even 1mm between the case and phone...in other words it fits so well it looks like I had it colored for $300 or however much it costs. It was like 10 bucks. Go on amazon and save some money.
