    Sorry if this has been covered, but I think it's about time for some BB to be released with 5.0 after all the betas that are floating around. What does the tour come with?

    I thought it is going to launch with .28 or higher because CX said that the builds .28 and after were very good.

    I heard that at LEAST it would come out with the .58

    BUT, and again I'll repeat myself, Its something I read here, so don't take me too seriously

    Verizon go with 4.7.1.50 or 58 more likely than not.

    Man up, its easy and almost risk free to update. you can do it, and you shouldn't avoid it. even if you wait till fall there is bound to be an update after 5.0 is out.

    Seeing as these builds are not even created yet, I dont think so

    I would "guess" that you will see .26 to .30 at launch.

    i was under the assumption it was coming with 4.6 since the storm uses 4.7 with the touchscreen, then whenever 5.0 is officially released you make the upgrate...that make sense to anyone?

    Nope 4.7.1.XX, similar to the Storm OS which is 4.7.0.XXX (148 currently) The inteface and OS will be very similar to the Storm except for it not having the touch controls.

    Eventually all current devices will go to 5.0 which is also similar to the Storm interface and OS operations.

    4.7 and whenever 5.0 comes out, you'll upgrade.

    i can deal with that...i like everything about the storm except the fact that it's touchscreen so that's pretty much perfect for me

    You don't have to hope because it's better. .28 is fantastic and it might not be the actual build that goes gold .

    Crackberry did a review and so did The Boy Genius Report. After they did their review the software that was installed was 4.7.1. Hopefully by the time the Official BlackBerry Tour 9630 drops, it will have 5.0 installed, (Hopefully)!!

    I believe its been noted that it will probably not launch as the only device to have 5.0 on it and fall is slated for the main release..

    Only one phone I know for certain getting shipped out with 5.0 is Onyx. Storm II is pending.

    And the Onyx is very very nice on 5.0! I wonder if Geminis will ship with 5.0 also, cause I know Geminis with 5.0 are out there.

    By time the Gemini officially drops, Tour owners would have upgraded to 5.0 already. Hmm, when would that be =)

    Well if the Gemini and Aries release around the same time then I know 5.0 will already be rolled out most likely.
