I don't want to be a "Negative Nancy", but I might have to call "shenanigans" on this information. This looks like an ATT Curve. I think so because of this obvious "EDGE" logo in the upper right hand corner of the device which we know is going to be ATT or TMO. I thought about this being a "1XEV" but it just doesn't seem to fit.

the original:


A clearer blowup from another site:


which is another thing...if you look at this image in image editing software you notice it was created on a BB Pearl 8130. We all know that's a 2MP cam. You mean to tell me that they can't get a clearer pic than this???

Shenanigans!!!!

p.s. If I am in fact amazingly wrong in my analysis of this info.........



I was drunk when i wrote this.

I am having trouble believing that Sprint will get it before Verizon. History has not proven that.

What is your role/position at Sprint or at RIM? Or did you recieve your information from someone else?

Verizon's will have VZ Navigator Voice Activated Turn By Turn GPS, but I guess you forgot to mention that.

You are right, it is blurry around the part that would prove which network it was using(signal area). And yes, that is quite suspect.

While, I do agree the coverage is blurry. I did recongize two icons on the device. Sprint Music Store and Sprint Navigation.

My question is will Sprint enable MMS(PictureMail) on the device?

It has the same OS 4.3 as the Pearl, of course a different verision number, and Sprint blocks it from working on the Peral. I appreciate you looking into it.

What is your position at Sprint or RIM though?
