Onyx Waiting Room!

[BusinessTime]

I was going to get the Tour since carrier isn't an issue, but since this sounds amazing I'm just going to use a crappy phone until then.
OR I could get the 8900 and upgrade when the Onyx come out...

Just compare it with the Bold. Could be the same release delay for the Onyx around the world.

The M is sweet! Just think of Palm devices. Yes it's touch, but it also has a keyboard. And there are more devices you guys just haven't heard their names yet....

Yes but Palm devices have the proper OS for touching stuff. I doubt that you will need touching your screen when you got a gorgeous trackball / -pad.

Surely you don't think the M was made with a keyboard and touch, only for the touch not to work???

Of course not. But where's the advantage in having a touchscreen that's smaller than 3 inch.
(but ofc dunno the final specs for the Magnum)

Mind if sit here and wait with everybody. I too am very intersted in the Onyx. I think it will be worth the wait. I currently have the curve and am looking forward to the extras with the onyx

I own the storm currently and im thinking about dropping verizon selling my Storm and picking this bad boy up... As soon as my 30 days was up for the storm i was kicking myself in the **** because i should have gotten the bold because its a much more solid device and gets the job done every time no matter what. I prefer the physical keyboard over the touchscreen for sure. I cant wait for the Onyx to come out it will be amazing im pumped its the better Bold from everything im hearing and its just as fast if not faster cant wait!!!!

(that or i just wait it out for my 2 yrs to be up and the major roll out of BB phones will be out and the kinks worked out and from there i will see which is the best fit... I am convinced i don't really like touchscreen for typing. I prefer a full physical keyboard any day. This next yr should be very interesting to see what comes out for BB im excited but as of right now Onyx all the way (GSM phones seem to be the way to go faster processor and better devices))

i wish the bold had a track pad

[BusinessTime]

I think my plan is once I move back to the US get the 8900 and use it until the Onyx comes out. If I don't do that I'll have to use a crappy pay-as-you-go phone from AT&T or some other carrier. Seems like the most logical thing to do since we don't know when the Onyx is coming out. :P

Sign me up!

I hope its out before December on Rogers though!

[Jeffdc5]

I love the look of this thing but it doesn't offer anything new that my bold doesn't have I'm going to have to decide if I should get this or hold on to my bold and wait for the magnum...

[scythe224]

is this phone coming to Tmobile i wanna get it, if it is i have the 8900 i love and this would complete my collection for a while

[ucsdgirl04]

This is what I'm holding out for. I like the trackball..but I haven't known anything else.

But I will definitely be getting this. I love my 8320 but I am looking forward to something different (with more memory!!)

Me too. Gonna stick it out with my little Curve and hope that the Onyx (love the name!) is released not long after I'm eligible for my upgrade. "Looking good Lewis!"
