It's an old one, they just updated it.

well great....thanks redman

I never trust those things. From my understanding, T-mo keeps a lot of future phones under wraps until the last minute.

I don't know if your being sarcastic or not, here's what it says on BGR.

"UPDATE: Sorry for the confusion. The slide above says November, but our guy says its older and provided it to us for information purposes. There is a newer internal slide that does show October."

Was talking to Customer Service yesterday and was told that a Touchscreen Blackberry will be released before Xmas. Only phone that fits that description is the Storm 2. (Crossing Fingers)

that would be nice...I have to believe that they have the 9700 confused though.....

The Storm is a sexy looking device. No doubt about that.

I just can't see the practicality of using a touch-screen device as a hardcore BlackBerry user. We buy BlackBerrys because we are hardcore email and text message people. The touch-screen thing would kill me using it everyday.

Sexy? Yup. Practical? Not a believer.

Perhaps it is because I am so in love with my 8900 but the jury is still out on the 9700 as far as I'm concerned.

I am not a fan of the trackpad. And we still do not have a definitive answer on whether the 9700 will have UMA as far as I know. No UMA = total dealbreaker for me.

I'm not in any rush to replace my 8900. Love this thing. So if RIM wants to sell me a new device, they better bring something pretty compelling to the table. Trackpads and lack of UMA ain't gonna cut it.

9700 Forum Thread confirms UMA working.
