Got the car started!

i want my torch in white! how long do i have to wait?!

Come on bell let's go.

cant wait for this
im gonna get one as soon as possible

can't wait! 2 more days

can't wait! 2 more days

When is it coming to Verizon?

You will know when its coming to Verizon when you either hear about it or read about it.

but i was walking by a BELL store at Yonge/Sheppard Centre and they had a dummy unit to play with. Felt great in my hand. Now I just need to find one with a working OS so I can see how the OS reponds. SO EXCITED!!!

This is awesome.

Pre-ordered mine last week just have to wait till friday

3 year contract? Who keeps a smart phone for 3 years these days? The technology moves too quickly.

Been bb less for 2 weeks, cant wait for friday!

been flip flopping back and forth on whether to replace my 9000 with the torch or wait for something better to come out. At the end of the day it should be better than the 9000 (which I have loved) and no mater what there will always be something newer and better coming out. So Friday morning off to the Rogers store. Unless I flip again. any thoughts?

Me and my Apps have really outgrown my trusty 9000 - so Torch it is for sure! Will not even consider anything else!

I have to admit I have been flipping back and forth as well. I'm not as concerned about the processor and the low resolution as I am by the number of smashed screens I have been reading about. It seems they wont take much abuse.

In the end (friday morning) I probably wont be able to resist...

REALLLY think about if you want this thing.

I got to hold and play with a dummy unit tonight I want one so much more now!!!

I've got to play with a production model with full OS6 on and off at work for the last few weeks. I must say that even with my limited use I've found it to have a very responsive/intuitive UI, sturdy feel and a great battery life.
Can't wait to get one for myself!

Waiting for it to come to Sprint no new phone until the Torch comes

You flip-floppers -- DON'T wait! This is the best BB out there. You will LOVE it. I've had mine for about 5 weeks now and am still finding new, cool stuff that it does. I would not choose Android or iPhone over this one -- I am hooked.

This means that the next contest will be about winning an Unlocked Rogers Torch 9800 .... Right ?? :P

Please!!!!!!!!
I want a torch :(...!!...

Rogers has just announced delaying the launch till September 30 and subject to change as well.

Nooooooo!

I just came back from Futureshop where I pre-ordered the phone, ($30 deposit required) and they told me it was delayed till September 30th and when I got home I called Rogers and they confirmed this. I am praying to god that this is some kind of gimmick to try and get some surprise out of people when they do release it tomorrow.

Please let this thing release tomorrow.

And yet their splash page rogers.com/torch continues to report Sept 24th

Just checked the website...now says end of september. Quite frankly, RIM does need to step up their game seriously to keep people coming back to these devices, the pricing at 599 is avg and i hope the device is worth it. hard to say if i will part with my 9700. i think its a great device all around. So the question remains, how long do i remain with Rim? Time will tell since there are many more advanced better phones out there......

The Blackpad is the newest rumor about Research in Motion. The headline about the Blackpad, possibly including a preview, could possibly be made at the Developer Conference today.

I read this here: Blackpad - Seven inches of Blackberry rumorsSome news sites are reporting that a fully functioning machine can be previewed. Others say the Blackpad is still in first development and won't even be discussed. The rumors circulating around the Blackpad are sure to continue. With or without an announcement, some are keeping a close eye on the newest developments.
