Our friends at BGR are reporting that WES (Wireless Enterprise Symposium) 2009 might show off some exciting new toys! First thing right off the bat is AT&T will finally be showing off the BlackBerry Curve 8900 aka Javelin after much delay. Not only that but RIM hopefully will formally announce the BlackBerry 9630 “Niagara” which is the new CDMA World Edition smartphone. As you may know the 9630 will take from both the Bold and Curve 8900 series to bring an all new design with tons of great features. BGR goes on to report that Canada may be the first to see the 9630 launch on presumally Bell and Telus late May, then followed by Verizon in June/July.

That’s most of the hardware related news for WES 2009. With any luck at all RIM won’t disappoint us this May. Oh and in case your wondering WES 2009 runs from May 5-7, 2009…

A first look at Visual Voicemail for the BlackBerry Bold

By James on Jan 20, 2009 in AT&T (Cingular), BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, Rumors, USA.

As you may know Boy Genius never lets you down with the RIM leaks. He is now showing a first look at Visual Voicemail for AT&T’s BlackBerry Bold. AT&T will be introducing OS 4.6.0.219 sometime soon and with this update it should bring RIM’s new Visual Voicemail service with it. With any luck at all maybe RIM will bring this to other devices not just on AT&T. It would be sweet to have on the Storm! Anyways unfortunately he doesn’t have an exact release date but he does say be patient, it may be coming sooner than you think.

BlackBerry Curve 8900 passes thru FCC

By James on Nov 13, 2008 in AT&T (Cingular), BlackBerry, Curve 8900 Series, Rumors, T-Mobile, USA.

Great news for those in the United States! The BlackBerry Curve 8900, which was previously code-named Javelin has been approved by the FCC. This means that technically the Curve 8900 could go on sale almost any time in the United States. So the next part is to try and guess who will have the Curve 8900 out first – T-Mobile or AT&T?

AT&T branded BlackBerry Curve 8900 reviewed

By James on Oct 31, 2008 in AT&T (Cingular), BlackBerry, Curve 8900 Series, USA.

The Gizmodo team got their hands on a AT&T branded BlackBerry Curve 8900 (aka Javelin) for review. If you check out Gizmodo you will see a bunch of high resolution pictures and a mini review of the the device. This also appears to be the first AT&T branded pictures seen of the Curve 8900. Here’s a quick blurb from their review:

The Bold is more substantial, exuding “executive” to the Curve 8900’s “middle manager” or “normal person.” It’s clearly more powerful, and has a bigger screen. The keyboards are way different, too—personally, I prefer the Bold’s larger, squishier keys to the Curve’s smaller, stiffer ones. But obviously, the biggest thing is 3G. The Bold has it, the Curve 8900 doesn’t, and we missed it sorely.

Latest word on AT&T’s Bold release date

By James on Oct 17, 2008 in AT&T (Cingular), BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, USA.

As you may have read AT&T held a launch party in New York City the other night and basically didn’t have any Bold’s on hand to actually give out. Instead they gave everyone a I.O.U card to get a Bold at a later date. Anyways Boy Genius seems to have obtained an email stating the latest release date for RIM’s new 3G BlackBerry Bold 9000. It seems the Bold should arrive on October 27th and that the pricing is still unknown.

Apparently the issue that was holding the Bold back from releasing on AT&T has been fixed up and its all good to go! Stay tuned.

If you want a little tease to hold you over check out over gallery for the BlackBerry Bold >>
