Warning: This Picture May Make You Drool.... Tour 9630s!

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.

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.

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.

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??

and i jizz in my pantsssss...
zomg super duper silly excited=]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and what is so special about these??? its just a phone people!! geez!!!

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)

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..............

So far we have seen two color versions for the bezel, blk and silver. Which one is getting released for VW?

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.

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.

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.

I will have this phone. Already making preparations. Ha Ha Ha

yep..it's a hot phone, and i'll probably get one to either replace my storm, or just add another line when i get the tour. but as it stands now, i'm not rushing out to get one, like i did when the storm came out. the storm was rushed to market, and look at what happened. i think i'll sit and wait for the hype to settle down, to see what this phone is really capable of, before giving verizon or rim any more of my money. and seeing the videos of the phone randomly powering down causes some hesitation.

There will be no Lines but the Black T will be a huge hit. The storm was great for the consumers and now us business (CDMA) folk have a new toy to be excited about.. Woo Hoo

excuse me while i wipe off my keys...

lfdhhalkdjladfldfdldjlk;d

(from drool of course)

I will be waiting in line, even if I'm the only one lol. This is becoming an expensive obsession =/

The DAY AFTER I pick up the Tour, the "official" update for the Storm that stops the random reboots will come out! My Storm is as good as in the trash...sorry to say, but I cant take the reboots anymore.

What about the Atlas? the one with WIFI.... it's rumored to come out with the storm 2 right? I would be willing to wait 2 more months for the added wifi.

I received an early upgrade offer from Verizon but I am holding out for this one. As soon as it's available I will be ditching my 8830.

I want one of these bad boys sooooo bad! I currently have the Storm and I am at my wit's end with this thing. I will do whatever it takes to get one of these.

I do want one and I remember what I went through when I stayed all day in the Verizon store when the Blackberry Storm can out. I don't think I will be doing that again, hopefully I will order one on-line, wait a little longer, or if not I will wait for the Blackberry Storm 2. I have to have the latest, but I think this time I can wait.

Getting one may be more important than finding a new job after just being layed.

I agree with some of the above posters who are calling for a Tour contest. After all, it looks like Kevin's got 3, so why not give away the other 2? As if he'll get bored with his Bold, Curve 8900, Storm, Tour and all the other upcoming device (Gemini, Onyx, etc.).

nice device..maybe the rumored Atlas if it has wifi..

My 9c kept acting up and I got the curve for 4.70 from verizon. Couldn't pass that up.
I wonder if this device will have issues like the storm did?

I'm up for an upgrade in August. Hopefully by that time the Storm2 and the Tour will have been out for a few weeks and I can compare the two. I'd like the Tour the best, except for no wi-fi. So, I'll probably spend an hour in the store playing with both before I take the plunge on either one. Currently, I run an 8830, so I am dying to upgrade!

I want a BB on a CDMA carrier with a SIM card, WIFI, Optical Trackball and all of the latest features. Still waiting.

Yeah I cant wait to pay 600.00 for one..I just sold my 2 month old Storm for 300.00

yeah so i definitely will be on line armed with weaponry, so no one dares cut me.

Looking forward to it.. Not sure i'd wait in line unless it's a weekend release

This will be my first Blackberry. I have an upgrade coming in July, too, so it all works out perfectly.

I'll wait to read user reviews first, though, before I buy one.

Hopefully the mass interest in the Tour won't provoke Verizon to keep the price of the phone unnecessarily high.

I have a Curve 8330 and Storm 9530 for Verizon. I picked the Storm up cheap off of eBay. It's OK, but I love my curve and cannot wait for the Tour to come out. I just wish VZW would give us a date or at least let us know that it is / isn't coming....

Oh man, i def drooled when i saw this lol i cant wait to stand in line to get mine =D

BEAUTIFUL!!! Can't wait!!!!!! It looks so sexy!

the video and new pictures of the storm 2 that engadget just put up....

yup.... decisions decisions...

I was one of those that waited on that early, early morning only 8 months ago. I am definitely enjoying my Storm and when asked I respond with "it's been a fun experience...". But to do that again with a new phone within the same year? CRACKBERRY.......see you all there, I'll bring the coffee!!!

This phone has zero hype behind it except from here and other tech sites. It will sell well but there wont be people lined up at the door at 8 AM to buy it and i severely doubt it will get the media coverage that the Storm or iPhone recieved

Definately want one and will probably grab it once it hits the market. Although, I'm a sprint user so I probably won't see this until Novemberish...Ugh

I'll be in line. Get us a release date already!

I don't have a close Verizon retail store so I can't stand in line, but I will be standing by online for it to be available.

This will be my first Blackberry and I certainly won't be shedding any tears when my Windows Mobile phone is put to rest.

I'm so ready for the Tour, however, I'm not going to be stading in line. I want to see what others say and my upgrade isn't until August!!! So then, I will be grabbing one!

I was absolutely sold on getting a tour on day1! Until you guys dug up the dirt on the Storm 2. Getting rid of the click screen and offering wi-fi is a big improvement. If they fix the storm camera, its a winner. Anyone else think the storm camera is junk?? Takes like 5 sec for the picture to take after the button is pushed....

Not day one for me, but...it'll be a WEEK one purchase. I've been holding out for the Tour as my first Blackberry phone. I can't wait.

OK, you have 3 of them, what do you know that we don't? Come on...tell us!

There has got to be something you can tell us that we don't already know.

I am DEFINITELY getting one of these DAY ONE.

Cool very very cool

WTF!!! heart was set on the Tour now this storm2 business. what to do, what to do

I'm sorry, but what's to drool about? It looks like the Bold... or is it the Curve? Can't really tell!

Yeah , just like the storm , i will be in line 12 hours early in that same number 1 spot, infront of the same store..... AND I WILL BE THE FIRST PERSON IN VANCOUVER WASHINGTON TO OWN THE 9630 WHOOT WHOOT !!! and if kevin is lucky enough , maybe i will do a 12 hour LIVE FEED for some free shit lol :)

I'm waiting for this BB to be my first BB. Everyone around me has a BB and I am holding out for the Tour.

.....needless to say, I am going to be waiting on line for this thing on launch day.

I cant wait till these hit bell, I will be in line the night before to get one, ok well maybe not, but i am getting one on day one

Im in line, so how long people, couple months, dam I should have really thought this through before setting up my tent.

its the same as the bold and curve! but with less/different features! whats the point?

am i missing something or is there nothing new in the post about the tour other than the fact that there is a picture with three of them?

We better be getting this on sprint because we don't have any devices with the new os systems and the nextel curve don't count lol

Im dying to get my hands on one and you have 3. Jerk! lol!

Hello CrackBerry Nation. I'm a new member but have been following the site for a while. Love what I am seeing with the BB Tour. I'm up for an upgrade from Verizon in December so this may be my next device. But who knows, with news of the Storm 2 also in the blogs today I do seem to have joined on a great day in CB Nation.

:D

It's interesting that this may be the first time individual VZW users *want/need* to pay to upgrade their device before the contract end date on their Storms is reached.

Out of contract the Tour will most likely be upwards of $450, and I don't think the first Storm contract is set to expire until at the earliest November (maybe October if I'm not mistaken).

Who's thinking of switching?

Who's holding out for the Storm 2?

Maybe we should get a poll going :)

There won't be lines. This is a traditional BB aimed at the traditional BB market. The Storm was marketed at the consumer masses. Regardless I am probably going to go through telesales again to avoid the annoying mail in rebate.

gotta remind myself to not drool on the keys cause laptops aren't fond of drool on the motherboard.... I WANT ONE!!!!

Yeah... add WIFI !!!

Im gonna get one when it comes out. Day 1, most likely not but week 1, you better believe it

I can't wait for this one! Hurry up!

irony all us storm 1 users aren't available for upgrades on our two year contracts

We Sprinters will have to be in the Christmas spirit before we get the 9630. I'd stand in line for this phone if it were coming to us, but since its not you all can let us know how it goes.

Sprint us releasing this...I dont know why people keep saying this. I know they have tested it...althought the pre is their baby now...

i'm so glad my upgrade is mid aug i can talk c/s into letting me upgrade early!

Can someone confirm that Sprint will be getting the 9630? Also any idea when it will be released for Sprint??

Can someone confirm that Sprint will be getting the 9630? Also any idea when it will be released for Sprint??

Look for this phone on the Sprint Network sometime between July 1st and September 30th, 2009!

Yea, i will be selling my storm and doing an early upgrade to get the Tour. Tired of typing on the Storm. It really just is aggravating.

It's definitely a "stand in line" phone, but I think I may just order offline. Not really one to stand in an endless line.

Whats the anticipated cost for people whoe arent eligible for an upgrade?

Looks like a mini-bold! I like the look, I prefer the larger size of the Bold but that is definitely one of the nicest looking Blackberries to date.

I plan on being at the Verizon Store closest to me the day the Tour goes on sale. I have been waiting for this phone now for only about 3 months which isnt that long compared to some of the other members who are close to the 1 year mark. This phone just seems perfect for me and my needs. My Pearl has served me great for the time but its just not cutting it anymore. There are things that simply cant be changed about the phone that are not going away.
