| |  Who else is mad that they got the Tour?
I dont know about you but after reading that their is a new blackberry coming out for Verizon that will have WiFi i get mad because i spent 200 on my Tour when I could probably just wait another 2 or 3 months and get the new blackberry. I might be able to return my Tour now or wait until the new blackberry comes out and then argue with Verixon and get it someway, but I do not want to go thru the hassle.
I am mad. 
What are you gonna do about it?

Pretty sure there's a 30 day return policy. If you don't like it, give it back. Done and done.

The new BlackBerry will be the 8530 will significantly lower specs. Yes it does have WiFi and the trackpad, but the Tour will still be the best BlackBerry on Verizon. I would not expect a new full qwerty BB that has better specs than the Tour for at least an entire year.

The new BB with wifi is going to be a low end Curve type phone. The only improvements are the trackpad and wifi, while everything else is a step backwards.

So far the only official things ive read were that sprint would have a tour with wifi next year. Havent heard anything from verizon. So its not going to be a lower specd device for sprint. Just added wifi to the phone you already have.
Is verizon really getting the 8530?

I would think that would be pretty obvious based on their previous model # structuring. IE: Curve 8310 = Curve 8330 with GSM

You need to accept that no matter what you get today, there will always be something better tomorrow.
Enjoy the Tour..... Its a great phone.

Even if Sprint gets it, there is no guarantee that Verizon will also offer it.

It would take a lot more than a spoofy trackpad and possible wifi to make me upset with my tour. The keyboard, screen res, and overall look of the Tour is second to none.

I doubt there will be a better phone than the tour on VZ's network until the next version of the tour hits next year. Only thing that bugs me is that it could have had a large screen real estate but i tend to overlook it due to the displays vibrancy.

What are you gonna do about it? | Verizon will not get anymore new Blackberrys this year besides storm 2, which will have wifi. other then that, early next year is when another blackberry will come out, but no more this year besides storm 2

There is always something new right around the corner. That said I will take a faster CPU, more ram, and a higher res screen over wifi any day of the week.
