Could at&t have been testing this thing for awhile and have found away to keep it a very good secret the hardware looks great and for what CX the OS we saw in the video is know were near the latest release so that's a great sign that things could be close
Well, folks HAVE been saying that ATT was about to start field testing, it appears that field testing HAS just begun. A known ATT tester was expecting his unit any day now, so, perhaps signs ARE looking good.
EDIT: 10-12 weeks is optimistic, and OFTEN (like almost ALWAYS) goes longers, but hopefully not TOO much longer.
I do find it strange that RIM doesnt try to mask these devices in AppWorld since they know developers can see it. I've also see the "9700a" pop up in my reports a short while ago.
All good signs that the 9800 & 6.0 is moving along nicely. I suspect that the 9800 HAS gone to ATT field testing, perhaps a certain CBer's with the initials PG can confirm? But in any event, it's reason to be excited that things are moving along in a positive direction folks. NO there will probably not be a June release (did anyone honestly think there would be???), BUT things are looking up!
EDIT: Yes a certain German developer (some of my FAVORITE BB APPS!!!!) has made my a VERY happy man too. Or at least VERY cautiously optimistic.
Well.... Its not from testers guys for AT&T yet. The ONLY freaking app you can use on the 9800 so far is the BB APPWORLD.... for some reason it works, while all the others are shut down....
I'm sure once the other 9800 apps start working that's when field testing will start.
