Noticed a subtle change on VZ site

**mustangv8** · 08-05-2011, 05:58 PM

I just noticed a subtle change on VZ's website right now that wasn't there in the past, especially when I checked yesterday.

I have been keeping an eye out on their site, about every other day, since the bold touch video was posted under the video tutorial for the bold 9650.
When you do a search for Blackberry os under smartphone category, they used to return with 6 results, today it came back with 8 results, but they are currently only showing 6 items.

I'm not looking too deep into this, just saying maybe a change is in order for some possible new additions?

Now that is interesting.

It has been like that for at least the last 30 or 40 days. I noticed it when I was looking for an upgrade in June. Don't think it means much but????

If you'll notice...the curve 9330 & 8530 both come in 2 colors.
6+2 = 8

EDIT:
Storm2 for $199!!! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
thats insane... i got my 1.5 years ago for $149

what more sad is they will still sell those for 199 for a while yet

I agree, Matt. Some of the high prices, coupled with being locked into another two years, is crazy at this point. I work with a gal that bought a 9650 a couple of weeks back at $199. I felt bad for her, but she loves the phone.

VZW, well any carrier, wont look out for their customer at all in these cases. They still get their sale sadly all they care about most times

Definitely the multiple color choices creates the "8" result. When selecting "apple" or "android", the total results reflect the multiple colors of several models

I liked my Storm 2 a lot but recently started using a second hand 9650 and it is a very good phone. I am still looking forward to the Bold 9930 but I can see why some one would be satisified with a Bold 9650.

My crystal ball says it will come out sometime in the future. LOL!!! Just kidding! those guys will tell you anything to keep coming back in hopes that you'll get fed up with waiting and buy something else. It's coming. We just need patience and with Big Red you definitely need patience.

There's been quite a few people saying 8/25 for the 9860. I'm starting to think that will be the date. Also that's exactly 2 weeks from the 11th which is the current rumored launch date for the 9930
