Warning: This Picture May Make You Drool.... Tour 9630s! Posted in Devices on 21 May 2009 11:07 by Kevin Michaluk | 
116 comments
A picture that is worth a thousand words.... aren't they beautiful?! If you haven't read our BlackBerry Tour 9630 review yet, be sure to check out Part I and Part II. Man oh man I can't wait for this device to get released. Yeah, I *wish* it had WiFi and the optical trackpad that the Curve 8520 features (wouldn't it be sweet if they added it in last minute?!), but regardless it is definitely going to be a hit with the CDMA carriers out there. When the Storm 9530 went on sale, there were lineups at Verizon stores across the USA. Think we'll see the same excitement for the Tour? Anybody reading this planning to stand in line to grab one on day one? Bookmark/Search this post with:

I want one... or three
Can't wait!!!1
I want to stand in line. But as it stands now, I don't think I can...all my lines are used up and they wont sell you the tour at full retail on opening day. But as soon as I can, I'll be calling the tour, Mine!!
I don't think you'll see a line, but this phone will be big. I still wish it had the Bold's processor though.
Agreed. Bold processor and some iPhone like memory for Apps!
I have an upgrade on July 20th but I can't wait that long. The suspense is killing me. I want this phone so bad.
you can upgrade 30 days earlier if you call c/s.
done that twice now with verizon....
Call c/s? whats c/s?
Yes im w/ Julz789 what exactly is c/s?? because i have an upgrade August 8th and if i can do the whole 30 days early thing that would be sooooooooooo much better :)
c/s = customer services
I went to the Verizon rep I've been going to for about 2 years and he just said all he could do was put my name down on the waiting list?? How did you do you upgrade that early??
I can't wait for this phone to come out, I don't know if I'll wait in line though......although, who am I kidding? I probably will......hope I like it as well as my pink curve!! gotta have the latest and greatest bb though....can't wait!! I also have an upgrade in July! : )
Very interested in the Tour to replace my Pearl. But after getting the Storm on release I think I will wait at least a little while on this one.
Even with the early release on the Storm I really like it. I don't expect many issues on the Tour so I probably won't wait long.
i will be there on day one to get 3 or 4 of them! i cannot wait for this phone to launch!!
This phone is realllll nice! Gonna be a huge hit for Bell & Telus in Canada!
I made the mistake of spending a day online to get the Storm, and am so-so happy with it. I can't use leaked OS, and .75 is meh. I love the CONCEPT of the Storm, but the reality is it's so-so.
So I may switch to the Tour, but you can be sure I won't wait on line for it. VZW and RIM have lost my trust in that respect, and if I do get it, I will wait to see how things shake out before I get one.
That much I know.
Once bitten, twice shy. I hear ya, man.
I for one being a long time sprint customer can't wait till this one launches. I have been waiting quite a while for a new bb and really wish sprint had the same relationship with bb as they do with palm! We might see more than one bb a year!
Woody
Yes I will be standing in line;)
It really looks like a great phone but i think i'll wait for the storm 2.
I would love to get one on day one but does anybody know when that day one will be??
Kevin,
This should call for a free Blackberry Tour Contest!
*coughs* ehem,

and what is so special about these??? its just a phone people!! geez!!!
You must not be a blackberry addict??
No more post for you!!
i actually am, i use storm all the time, i just don't get it how people are getting soooo excited about a phone,
i understand all the features and upgrades and all but really?
This is not just a phone, this is *THE* phone. More seriously, tons of people running around with 8830s and 8330s are itching for an upgrade. These phones have served them (us) well, but they are now looking towards the future, better camera, MORE MEMORY (need I say more?), OS 5.0 upgrades (and beyond), EVDO rev A.
This is not really a revolutionary device or anything, but it is a solid evolutionary step from where CDMA qwerty blackberry users are today.
When I can get it online...
we need a tour contest. i will definately be first in line to buy one. i just wish i didn't have to wait til july. i've wanted this phone since last year when i first saw the pics.
You want to hear something wierd...I had a dream last night and in that dream the Tour was officially released. Its not like I NORMALLY dream about blackberries so I thought this was strange. I checked the site when I woke up and no word but this is WIERD!!
What's also wierd was I dreamed about terrorists using FROZEN HOT DOGS as projectiles for a car bomb...I guess that's what I get for watching the news before bed!!! (yesterday's foiled car bombing in the bronx)
Hilarious!
No lines for this phone Kevin... No lines.
It's beautiful and all, but I doubt there will be lines.
when is sprint going to get it? i want it i want it i want it!!! sprint is sloooooooooowwwwwwwwwww..............
Yes please. I have a love hate relationship with my 8830 and it is time for an upgrade. Come on sprint. Get this out ASAP. I love the value sprint's service plans bring and their recent focus on customer service, but blackberry handset selection is severely limited as of late.
So far we have seen two color versions for the bezel, blk and silver. Which one is getting released for VW?
i think verizon will get the silver and sprint will be sporting the black
very very nice
I was waiting for the 9630 to come out mid July to have my first ever Blackberry. I really wanted the Storm but was hearing to much "no good" about it so didn't move on that. But now if the Storm 2 comes out within a month or so of the 9630 I will have a choice to make regarding with one to get.
If I were you, I would base my decision on whether or not you want a full touch screen device. Hopefully, RIM should have most of the bugs worked out of the storm and storm 2 by the time the storm 2 launches, so product quality should not be as much of an issue. I would still let the early adopters put it through it's paces before I picked one up though. Wifi could also be a factor for you (assuming there is not a wifi tour in the pipes). Personally I would never be satisfied with a full touch screen BB (although I might have gone with the storm initially because it was the top of the line BB available on VZW). YMMV.
The storm was my FIRST blackberry and I got it DESPITE bad reviews...In hindsight it was a good decision. IT IS TRUE that the .75 OS was TERRIBLE but I eventually got the chutzpah to download .109 and it has been all uphill from there. I love my storm running .141 and I am downloading .148 as we speak. The 9630 I expect to be nice and I understand waiting for CODENAME: Blackberry "ODIN" but if you want a TOUCHSCREEN blackberry now the STORM 1 IS GREAT WITH A BETA OS
These 9630's must the first ones to be mass produced. They must be pushing 'em out like no tomorrow.
I don't see any lines for this phone either.
I think I will take the day off and get it on release date, I just get a letter yesterday fron Verizon saying I'm eligble for an early upgrade...
No WiFi at all? That sucks... I thought that the "no wifi" was limited to Verizon only and Sprint's version would have it. Anyone know for sure? Anyways.. this is still the best CDMA Blackberry and I can't wait for this to come out on Sprint.
ALL CDMA BB's are the same hardware wise. If the Verizon version does not have WiFi then the Sprint, Telus, and Bell versions wont either.
screw storm 2! 9630 contest! I want this phone now!
I can't wait to get mine
I do want one!
My NE2 is in early/mid June, the 15th I think. That will be the real determining factor as to if I will be waiting in line or not. Also if it happens to be on a weekend. Can't afford to miss work unfortunately.
I would love to see this with the track pad added at the last minute!
Nice but still want a Storm. I'm done with trackballs and small keyboards. I have no choice, my hands cramp now! :D
Slow news day? Don't get me wrong, I love the tour as much as the next guy (maybe even more). Maybe you are trying to tell us something Kevin...
I would buy a tour with wifi instead of GSM with little hesitation. Perhaps we may see one in a few months. RIM has experience with, and a history of, making different flavors of the same device (although not usually on CDMA carriers). I can has wun 9030/9640 plz, kthxbai.
