    Civil and CB just don't go hand in hand. However, blackberryos.com is quite reliable so let's hope it is for real. Sure would like something better than .113 when we know RIM is testing OS's much higher than that.

    That's about the weakest article I've seen in a while...
    The whole thing is 3 lines long and starts with "According to a source..."

    A source, as in singular, unidentified, as in could be the webmaster's 3 year old daughter!?!?

    And, citing "The Department of North American Research and Development"?!?! Who the **** is that, sounds completely made up and utterly vauge.

    I call shenanigans!!!!!

    Just checked out the site. Site seems legit, not so much the "article". It be cool if someone from crackberry (read kevin or a mod or someone) would follow up on it. If its TRUE, it would be great for crackberry and the site (win/win for both exposure speaking)

    The site is definitely legit and drop a lot of BB news before it hits CB. The person who wrote the thread is also legit and he has dropped very useful info in the past. The article is definitely a bit sketchy but would be curious what CX and the other MOD's think.

    Wasn't someone posting on here the same thing? I wonder if they wrote to blackberryos.com ??

    EDIT: I just read blackberryos.com forums in regards to this and the mod said that it was someone overseas that told him that. I really hope it's true....but like everyone said, will believe it when I see it!!!

    If this person does research as well as they write, well, it's not going to happen! OK, it's not going to happen anyway. Sure, RIM *could* release a number that high by then, but it would be released to the carriers for testing and then it would be another two months before we would see it; assuming it tests out OK. It's HIGHLY unlikely that any carrier has had a .18x anything for testing for the past 6 weeks or so.

    An Official OS Release on April 1st seems legit, but the build? Sorry, Radio has only mentioned about .170 cooking as of a day or two ago. I know that RIM is always working on builds and that they could very well be at .185/.188 by April 1st, but I wouldn't think anyone as of right now would be able to confirm that.

    At least April 1st isn't too far away. We'll know whether someone is lying or telling the truth very soon!
