What BB will Sprint get next?
When will a new one be released?

Im really hoping for a touchscreen BB to come to Sprint........... Anyone think thats in the near future?

Look as though the next BB for Sprint will be the 9670.

A touch screen phone for Sprint? Maybe... Maybe not... They won't get the Storm (Verizon) and they won't get the Torch (Att), and there isn't any rumored touchscreen BB's out there right now, so nobody knows...

Honestly, by the time Sprint gets a Touch BB, RIM might have gotten everything figured out.

A movie called "Going the distance" came out this weekend and was sponsored by Sprint with upcoming phones in it. I didn't get a chance to see it, but I watched the trailer and it looked like the phantom 9830. I hope that it's true. Google it and let me know what you think. It's the scene when they are in the park on the phone.

So did anyone check out the trailer for the movie? I can't tell what phones they are using.

Guido, there is absolutely no definite fact about when a Torch syle device will land on Sprint, or even IF one will. For the time being there is the Bold 9650, which many BB users like, and in the near future (by the end of the year I'd guess) the Style clamshell will/should hit Sprint. The Curve 9330 which is an entry level BB just was anounced for Verizon, no doubt that Sprint will get a version at some point. So, if you're looking for touchscreen, You might be waiting a while for BB.

I was told today from a reputable source Sprint will be getting the clamshell BB running 6.0 by the end of October. Seems quick since nothing has been released yet but I guess we will wait and see.
