9900 in Indonesia, coming to Middle East in a few days
- I had recently gone to jakarta-Indonesia and during a tour of the telecom office of one of the service providers got a chance to get my hands on the new 9900. I live in Qatar and have heard it should be here in a couple of weeks. Just wanted to share this with the community. All pictures were shot by my Torch

- I am a little confused, in your title you said a few days and in your post you said a couple of weeks. Can you please be a little more accurate? I live in the UAE and if this beauty arrives in a few days, I'm willing to postpone my trip back to Canada to buy one!

Many places have said it should be here by Eid. i'm gonna check today with this one guy who claims he will have it today but am not gonna hold my breath on that one. For all you know, he might be selling a china replica07-09-11 04:43 AMLike 0 -

- Thing is, there is this guy here in one of the phone shops that claims he had three pieces but they got sold out and will receive more in a few days. That was two weeks back. He then claimed that the new stock was stuck in customs. I checked with him again yesterday and he said he should be getting them today. If he does, expect more pictures
i briefly used the torch 2 since i already have the torch. the UI on both the devices was very fluid but that could be because of OS7. Performance can only be judged when you load a device with all your apps, games, emails n stuff.

I have checked with him again and the same story of it being stuck in customs which i personally think is BS. Either the first stock was CHINA replicas or Test Models given to Service Providers. If the latter then most probably stolen, since the phone hasn't been officially launched anywhere in the world(that i know of).07-11-11 10:53 AMLike 0 - For the past few days i've been thinking about the 9900 and if i really want it. I must have changed over 50 phones to date and the ones I've liked most were the kinds that hand something more to it on the outside, like moving parts. The side button on the SonyEricsson T29 to release the flap, the open flap to answer feature on the SE P990 and all the Razr series for its flip open goodness and similar stuff is what i've enjoyed.
Torch is the BB i've enjoyed the most from the previous models i've had(8300/8900/9500/9700) and thats mainly because of the slide open to answer calls. Thats just so cool(for me). So if i really do need to upgrade(which i most probably will), it will be for the new Torch and not the Bold. They are both great devices but with the Torch i can do a little more than i could with the Bold, even if its just playing with the slider while sitting idle07-11-11 11:10 AMLike 0 - @Clickqass: were you trying from someone at Souq Najada or somewhere else?
btw, its bold for me, had torch for a month but replaced it for 9780 so 9900 is the one i would definitely want...07-11-11 11:58 AMLike 0 - yes, he has his shop in najada but is getting his stock from someone else. Says 200 pieces are stuck at the Doha Customs because they are unlicensed to get these devices which haven't been officially launched yet. I still find it all to be BS.07-11-11 12:03 PMLike 0
- Yes u r right, most of the time the Najada guys bluff and say BS, anyways, looks like its close...have to wait for few more days..07-11-11 12:08 PMLike 0
