I can't wait to hold this and get to play with it! I can only hope its initial OS is more solid than the Storms.

I'm signed up and recieved my notification email already. Hoping since I'm a current VIP customer I can get in on one asap. My 8130 is getting a little beat up.

Thanks Kevin and Bla1ze

Verizon is advertising "It's everything you love about Blackberry... On America's Best 3G network." But the BB Tour doesn't have 3G capabilities!!

Why does Verizon get front billing and Sprint is not even mentioned...here is their site

http://tinyurl.com/mhf42m

Sprint is always getting the short straw on all the forums/blogs.

By: dbigdawg | Date: Tue, 06/16/2009 - 00:22

Let's see

Verizon 86 million customers and growing. #1 in users, #1 in 3G reliability, #1 in 3G POP coverage, #1 in customer retention.

Sprint $9 million customers and shrinking.

Mystery to me.

By: HorizonStar | Date: Mon, 06/15/2009 - 23:35

YAAAAY! Why couldn't it be on Sprint?? :(

By: trackizmy1 | Date: Mon, 06/15/2009 - 23:38

Congrats to all of you lucky CDMAers!!!!!!!!

By: Stevo181 | Date: Mon, 06/15/2009 - 23:44

Go to "Compare Tour" and scroll down to wireless networks. Wi-Fi Baby!!!!

I think it's wishful thinking on my part. No mention on the specification chart off the main page. :-(

By: srhx | Date: Mon, 06/15/2009 - 23:41

OMG OMG OMG OMG! YES!

By: jeffemail | Date: Mon, 06/15/2009 - 23:41

which is better. which is bigger. pro and cons? when will the added memory work as ram? not sure if i should upgrade.

By: bnz506 | Date: Mon, 06/15/2009 - 23:42

Is this for real or am i dreaming?

By: Splitgrey | Date: Mon, 06/15/2009 - 23:44

on the blackberry site when you compare devices it shows the tour as having wifi. Mistake or hidden feature......probably mistake.

The new BlackBerry® Tour™ 9630 smartphone will be available at Sprint stores, www.sprint.com and 1-800-Sprint1 later this summer for $199.99 with a new line activation or eligible upgrade and two-year agreement (and $100 mail-in rebate). Sign up now at www.sprint.com/tour to be among the first to own the new BlackBerry Tour.

Excited that this device was finally official, so I went to the RIM website to compare the phone to the others on their compare application....under 'WiFi' the box was checked for the Tour!! WHAT? Thought it wasn't supposed to have WiFi.... RIM website error?

By: justinbond | Date: Mon, 06/15/2009 - 23:48

Could really use the input of someone like Crucial to help clear up this WIFI business...in the comparison it also says it is not CDMA but rather GSM...which we know is not accurate

By: uknow85 | Date: Mon, 06/15/2009 - 23:49

it just the storm without the touch and big deal, same boring wack app world maybe some wi-fi ok same non blazing 3g speed and i own a storm so maybe thats why im so pissed..
