Boy Genius has just posted a rumor, which even he isn’t willing to confirm yet. Apparently they received a tip that T-Mobile USA might be launching the BlackBerry Bold 9700 on November 11th. So if everything goes as planned we should be seeing the Bold 9700 get officially announced for T-Mobile and AT&T later this month (October 21st), then maybe releasing just a few weeks later. Stay tuned for more info…

T-Mobile BlackBerry Bold 9700 Spotted in an Airport?

By James on Aug 11, 2009 in BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, Rumors, T-Mobile, USA, Un-Released models.

CrackBerry Kevin has got some serious luck. Back before the Curve 8900 was released he managed to spot three of them in an Airport in NYC, while traveling. This time around Kevin managed to spot a T-Mobile branded BlackBerry 9700 on his way home from vacation. Seriously? That’s some luck. Anyway as you can see the T-Mobile branded 9700 is running on OS 5.0.0.169. Kevin says the device feels very solid and production ready… Maybe that means we will see a launch very soon? Stay tuned.

IDC Confirms What We All Know, BlackBerry Rules!

By Susan C on Aug 08, 2009 in AT&T (Cingular), Alltel, BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, Curve 8300 Series, Curve 8900 Series, Pearl 8100 Series, Sprint-Nextel, Storm 9500 Series, T-Mobile, USA, Verizon.

The Research and Consulting firm, IDC, listed the top-selling smartphone models in the US. It lists vendor sales to carriers and channels as well. So far it’s going on preliminary data. The actual numbers won’t be available till the end of the month. So let’s see what the firm says so far.

No 10 is the HTC Touch from Sprint, Nextel, and Verizon Wireless.

No 9 is the HTC Touch Pro from Sprint, Verizon Wireless, AT&T, and others.

No 8 is the Palm Pre from Sprint.

No 7 is the T-Mobile G1 by HTC from T-Mobile USA.

No 6 is the Research In Motion BlackBerry Storm from Verizon Wireless.

No 5 is the Research In Motion BlackBerry Bold from AT&T.

No 4 is the Apple iPhone 3G (both versions) from AT&T.

No 3 is the Research In Motion BlackBerry Pearl (all 81xx series, excluding the Flip) from AT&T, Sprint, Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, and others.

No 2 is the Apple iPhone 3GS (both versions) from AT&T.

No 1 is the Research In Motion BlackBerry Curve (83xx series and 8900) from AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon Wireless, and others.

So what does that say? Research In Motion rules the smartphone world, and the BlackBerry Curve is still holding the number one position. I’m not surprised, though I’m very curious to see how the numbers change with the BlackBerry Tour 9630 entering the smartphone scene. I really like the Tour, it’s been very reliable, and I’m curious to see if it will rise to the top or come pretty close.

Anyone have any thoughts to share?

An Evening With A Movie And A Raincheck.

By Susan C on Jul 25, 2009 in BlackBerry, Events, RIM, T-Mobile.

blackberrymovies[1]

It was a date hosted by RIM for T-Mobile’s release of the BlackBerry 8520. The Boy Genius Report has a picture that a reader who won sent in. The event had some goodies, a giveaway which is delivered by mail, and the new movie Transformers 2. You have to love RIM, they know how to treat a date!

And some people wonder why we BlackBerry addicts appear to love our phones and pay more attention to them than our significant others, wonder why?
