    You will be waiting quite a long time. I bet a Bold will be out on Sprint before the "Gemini" ever hits ATT shelves.

    Sorry to burst your bubble! But there is no 3G 9300 Gemini, it's not 3G nor the 9xxx family. 8325 is the name!

    I am suffering with my old Nokia 6682. My children love the iphones they have, and I have been with AT&T a long time, and , belive it or not my call quality and customer service has been good,the Bold is tempting but now the gemini puts a wrench in my wait, i was on the verge of the 8900. well, the end of the saying goes..."to those who wait!!" so, i will wait!!AAARRRRGGGGG!!

    Well if you choose to wait your going to be waiting a awful long time as the 9300 isnt supposed to drop until 2010. I personally would go out and get yourself a Bold then when the 9300 or 8325 comes out just sell the Bold on ebay. The 9030 on sprint better be out before the 9300 or 8325 lol.

    IMO, the Bold is superior to the 8900, and if the specs blueberry posted are true, it's far superior to the Gemini or 8325 or whatever it's being called.

    I wanted the 8900 because of the form factor and the fact that it is at&t. yes, I realize the bold is awsomer(hey,it is a BB,you can use that word!)but the 8900 is great for at&t . but from what the Boy Genius Report said, why not wait for the Gemini? 3g, Wifi ,better camera & AT&T. sweeet!!

    Those specs aren't for the real Gemini. The real Gemini is the 8325, you can see the specs in the rumor thread.

    Next Bold, isn't that the CDMA "Niagara"? Or is it the touchscreen 9220 "Magnum"? Hmm...

    Like I said that isn't the Gemini. There is suppose to be a 9300 I believe, source says it's the "onyx", but CX says different. But we will get all the information soon.

    The 9220 "Magnum" will have a touchscreen and a full QWERTY keyboard.

    They say there is a 9300 out there, but it's not the Gemini.

    Well AT&T has had a shipment of 8900's for a while now. Just hasn't released it. But word on the street is that the 9220 "Magnum" is set to be on production next. And we know the "Magnum" is the 3G Javelin with touchscreen, and AT&T = 3G....
