- Research In Motion - BlackBerry Bold 9900 Images - Rim has added some pics of the 9900 to their media gallery. I don't know at what stage they do this, but its a stage at least
They are very high-res pics for you all to feast your eyes on...
Still hoping for a june release!!36thDisciple and Deathcommand like this.05-15-11 04:21 PMLike 2 - Fingers crossed. You know what worries me? RIM's design future is in the hands of people who think that that 6.1 / 7 wallpaper is the best possible showcase for the platform. Maybe it will look great on the 9900 but on everything else I've seen it on is just looks washed out. It deliberately fades the prevailing Red, they've actually worked to make it look washed out! And this is the showcase?05-15-11 06:41 PMLike 0
- You are going to see posters on here saying anywhere from late June to mid-August..and they will say they are lab testers, field testers, RIM employees, carrier reps, and maybe even Mike L or Jim B co-ceo's of RIM...but unfortunatly NO ONE really as any solid info when the Bold 9900/9930 will be released...I myself hope that it'll be out on Sprint by June 28th...but again, Just my hope and opinion

I've said all along that my thoughts on a release date are more likely to be late summer, rather than early summer.
I've never quoted a source or a fixed date, just my thoughts... and I too hope I'm wrong!05-16-11 01:11 PMLike 0 - The date in the picture on the phone shows Friday, May 20th....... Haven't we seen RIM hint at these things before with dates on the pics? Would be awesome if that panned out, but I'm also not expecting this phone till late June at the earliest. My hope is that all the carriers will release at once because lets face it, their are probably a lot of unused upgrades out there from people that won't switch from Blackberry.05-16-11 01:29 PMLike 0

- I don't doubt that the carriers are testing it. However, what would you say if i told you i tried it first hand last thursday? . Guess BS again05-16-11 01:49 PMLike 0
- Actually the Style and Curve 9300 shows Thursday May 20th which was last year which it obviously wasn't released then and they were late fall releases. 9300 shows Thursday May 20th last year. Pearl 3G shows Friday April 2, also last year. Tour shows Friday June 5 from 2009. Like I said RIM has sometimes. Torch shows Tuesday Aug 3, which was last summer, and was the day of the AT&T announcement, so sometimes the dates on the pictures mean something, but often times they don't.05-16-11 02:01 PMLike 0
- rim has been super slow in getting their new products onto the market.there was no point in pushing the torch 2 monaco new curve curve torch for later this year.its a blown opportunity for more profit. on top of all that the release for 9900/9930 could be august is beyond me.but i guess they still are working on the little bits and pieces so no bugs will be present.im in favor of that.05-16-11 09:10 PMLike 0

If the release is in August like PG stated, I really hope they fix most of the bugs on there too. There will always be bugs, but we don't want a repeat of Microsoft's Windows Vista OS when that first rolled out05-17-11 02:50 AMLike 0 - Yeah that's what we thought with the Playbook not making the Q1 release and we know that wasn't the case. Also it seems like every phone released for the past few years has had a far from perfect at release. RIM just doesn't seem to be able to get theses new phones to market in a timely manor and i guarantee you that isn't to get them bug free or "perfect". INHO there needs to be a major shakeup somewhere inside the company and I think the Street will be demanding that soon.05-17-11 06:32 AMLike 0
