Sorry about that.. I fixed the link...should work now.

Dont you just love Monday mornings when a tip comes in and your able to share that tip with your users? Thanks to one of our VZ informants we received a nice tip yesterday, actually, and waited until today to verify some of the information.

We know there are lots of you out there that use a BlackBerry, maybe because its company provided, but this should make all of you happy. Verizon is looking to push out OS6 for not 1, but 3 devices, by the end of the year. The Storm2 refresh (which we still dont have a final model number designation yet), the Bold 9650, and the Curve 9330. From what we were told, the Storm2 refresh will drop in November, pretty much around the Black Friday time frame, while we are hearing the Curve 9330 will hit the market in December. Both the Storm2 and Curve 8530 will hit end of life around October.

Whats nice is we are told the Bold 9650 SHOULD see an OS6 upgrade somewhere between the Storm2 refresh and the release of the Curve 9330.

Hopefully this all pans out for you BlackBerry folks! We look forward to seeing what VZ has in store this holiday for everyone.

Note sure if this is what BoldUser9650 was trying to link too or not...

Thanks for the link! Interesting info....man..we got quite a wait ahead of us for OS6 on the Bold 9650..hopefully it leaks out before that.

[xobrian]

This is good, that means Verizon will start testing OS6 on the 9650, and hopefully something will get leaked!

[0100010]

This is what I said the other day, I just had not confirmed what version. Makes sense that it is OS6 though.

EDIT : IE, they have already started testing...

[chrisvee]

No 9700?!

[pkcable]

No 9700?!

It is probably being tested by ATT also, but they are less likely to release it soon. HOWEVER there are many more 9700 vendors out there so the chances of a leak or other vendor version are quite good.

verizon doesn't carry the 9700.

There is hope after all!

Carrier testing for OS6 on the 9700 hadn't started as of 08/26. Hope they have started by now!

Haha, well here's to hoping for OS6 for the 9700 comes out soon!

verizon doesn't carry the 9700.

Oh, I didn't know that! Thanks for letting me know!

[dLo GSR]

Well, you seemed pretty upset about the 9700, but it has no place here being that this thread is strictly about Verizon, so don't give me that sarcasm.

You gonna call the thread police?

[TaZ52083]

You gonna call the thread police?

lmao

[SCrid2000]

By the time the thread police get here the guilty party is gone.
December... well, that kinda sucks, but I'm sure we'll get leaks.
At least we know it's on it's way out though

[Jaredius]

go tigers!

[lindros2]

Whatever. I'm tired of this waiting game. At this point Verizon and RIM can keep OS6.

[jebulls]

Will be here soon enough! Just hope when it comes it won't have a bunch of problems fresh out of the gates

[chrisvee]

There wasn't any sarcasm there.. I seriously didn't know!

No need for the thread police, just a small misunderstanding!

[EnergyPlus]

You guys kill me, lol. "So long" ?? C'mon, this is September, already! We're talking just a couple of months. What disturbs me more than anything though is, I don't want a "Refresh" I want the 3!!

[jetman1287]

Whatever. I'm tired of this waiting game. At this point Verizon and RIM can keep OS6.

Yeah, how are they supposed to compare the Storm 2 Refresh to the Droid X, Droid 2, iPhone, and the HTC Merge device coming out this fall? That is what they're competing against with the Storm....and it's going to be a huge failure.
