To elaborate slightly on what was said above, the 9500 is a GSM phone, the 9530 is CDMA. The one you want depends on your carrier.

As for the 9550, I've never heard of that before :S.

To clarify even further, 9500 is GSM only. 9530 is both CDMA & GSM.

this.


I suggest getting the 9530, since it supports both networks you can use it later if you decide to switch to a CDMA network like Verizon. Plus, its more popular than the 9500 not that that makes much of a difference.

Default 9550 Release Date

I spoke with VZW tech support and they informed me that the 9550 will be coming out in September and as far as the 5.0 OS for the older models it will be up to RIMs to release to VZW but they haven't received any word on that as of yet.
