Orange dropping BlackBerry Bold, too many issues?


It is rumored that UK cell carrier Orange has dropped the BlackBerry Bold from their lineup due to quailty issues. Apparently there is a internal memo floating around stating that they will not continue to offer RIM’s Bold until RIM has fixed the known issues with it. Maybe they are getting a bouncing 3G signal as well? Cause as you may know AT&T still has not released the device in the United States due to extensive testing…

“Unknown” BlackBerry smartphones found in XML files


Details have emerged of upcoming BlackBerry devices. Some of these devices we talked about in the past, one new guy we haven't heard of yet. These code names were found in some device XML files…

Boy Genius caught wind of the BlackBerry Javelin which should be the 3G-less Bold (and part of the 9000 series). Next up is the BlackBerry Storm (aka Thunder) which will be the touch screen BlackBerr and RIM's next CDMA smartphone. Then of course the not so secret BlackBerry Kickstart, a flip phone BlackBerry expected to launch on T-Mobile later this year. Hmm then talk of a model called Seawolf 9110 which BG thinks is the GPS enabled Kickstart for AT&T. Last one he found is a model called Aurora which he feels is just a old prototype maybe even something from the Pearl 8100 series.

Ok so all and all that was BlackBerry Javelin, Storm/Thunder, Kickstart, Seawolf and Aurora. That's a ton of rumors. One thing you may want to notice if you look at the XML file pictured above for the BlackBerry Storm/Thunder it shows Keyboard Type=VIRTUAL booyeah!
