    Bold 1 reached field testing in July 08 and released Nov 08. My guess is Christmas 09 or Feb 10 at the latest. Could be sooner. I certainly hope so. What I am going to do with all my Bold gear???

    Ok all I got some much better pictures of this...

    I take back what I said earlier. The leather back is REAL NICE. I prefer the 9700's look over my tour.

    I expect it to launch like the photos.
    For AT&T yes... I'm still trying to get CX to leak who's getting it first!
    I got both my Bold and 8900 from Canada... I need to figure out who
    I need to start sucking up to!

    Will Verizon or Sprint get a version of this phone? I know that a Wi-Fi model for the Tour is suppose be coming in the new year, but will they get a CDMA model of the Onyx-Merlin-Bold?

    I have tested both GPS and WiFi and both work great. I am not certain about the HTML emails so let me see about testing that...

    Sorry if this has been mentioned. But why no color differentiation for the number keys?

    It looks good, but the track pad makes it look cheap.
    Maybe its because the 8520 had it first.

    It's an AT&T thing.... They did the same on the Bold and 8900...

    phonegeek you just made my day with those pics.
    my bold has served me well for 8 months so far. I think its time for me to add the 2nd blackberry to my collection of blackberries. My bold is set to be retired. selling it will be a viable option.

    im guessing the next blackberry will have touchscreen, qwerty, and optical trackpad. lol.
    ---I just recently sold my bold and received 341.00 for it!! Hope that gives you a ballpark figure of what you could get for it! (mine was also unlocked)

    any idea if it runs the old 3.6mbps 3G or the new 7.2 like the 3GS? i know its pointless right now but it would be good for later when the network supports it

    I hate to back track but how bone headish of me. In my previous question I asked if the keyboard was the same or slightly larger than the 8900s. But what I meant to ask was if it's the same or slightly larger than the Tours. I realize you may have not been able to compare these two. I have played with the tour's key board and found it to be slightly cramped for my fingers, that's why I ask.

    I cant wait too bad i just upgraded in may, guess i'll just have to use my employee discount to get it. I wonder how much AT&T will price it i hope around the same price or lower then the 8900.

    If you check salomondrin's youtube video you'll see that they are the same size except for the bottom row.
