Red face AT&T New Berries....

What new BB are being made for AT&T? I like the onyx so far, but I am not quite sure. Right now I have a BB Curve 8130. It's decent but it's not exactly the fastest when it comes to web browsing. I can upgrade my phone in Dec and was trying to figure out what was coming out, when, and which is the best. Simply put...I want the best.

9700 will probably replace the curve 8310, but still on AT&T, the Bold is best they have. Which can be purchased at many retail stores from $0-$150 with a 2 year contract. And craigslist has them also for $250, which could save you money i guess.

9700 = Onyx

TMobile will have it in November, as for AT&T, possibly after that. Could be 1-3 months, just like they did with the 8900 Curve.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the 9700 have a "Bold" badge on the back? Meaning if it is going to replace or be the evolution of anything, it would be the Bold, not the 8310.

We have to wait that long for the Oynx to come to AT&T? The Onyx may sway me back to BB from the iPhone.

I'm sorry to tell you but you've been misinformed. AT&T will have the 9700 before T-Mo. AT&T is receiving it late Oct and early Nov. The phone is a Blackberry Bold (9000) replacement/upgrade and is going to debut as such.

Are you kidding? How would the onyx be the 8310 replacement? The onyx will be better than the bold.

Oh and the 8310 replacement would probably be the Curve 8900.

I'm speaking from a US carrier point of view. Just to clarify.
