Bold 9900 now or wait till next year for a BB with QNX?
I'm currently using the torch 9800 (since last Nov) and I have to admit, other than the faster web browsing experience, it is not as great as I've expected it to be compared with my other BBs.
I am thinking of switching to BB Bold 9900 but I read that OS7 BBs will not be getting any upgrades anymore and certainly won't be upgrading to QNX when it comes out!
Does that mean the Bold 9900 will be obsolete, and probably be forgotten by RIM by next year (software-wise)? Should I still get the Bold 9900 (I loved my Bold 9000)?
Thanks!

Just got the first patch from Verizon today on the 9930. I would expect the 99xx devices to get several updates for OS7 over the life of the phones. As for a major OS update to say QNX, you would likely not want it anyhow (RIM's implied it will not happen). Chances are without the OS being on the exact hardware it would not engineered for, it would not run all that well.
Also RIM is an enterprise company. They are not going to abandon a flagship device like that.
