- I hope its true I'll get the phone after my final and before work.
I personally hate sprints customer service as they screwed me several times in the 4 or so years I was with them. Also their service sucks out here. Therefor I will happily pay a little more for my plan for both better service and better customer service where I don't get the shaft.

- The S2 processor may or may not be real, like most everything else about this phone. If you look at Wireless and Mobile News, they have a list of features they think are included, including the S2 processor, but if you read it really carefully and go back through the threads in this forum very closely, I'm about 99% sure you'll find that the items confirmed in that report are just a cut and paste (see the line at "Better camera") from a posting here! Some of it is true based on previous reports, but part may just be a wish list. Still I'm wishing....

"What we do know for sure about the new BlackBerry Bold 9650:
* The trackball has been replaced with a trackpad that works well.
* It's about the same size as the original BlackBerry Tour.
* It has a faster processor, the same as the BlackBerry Storm2, which makes it run faster.
* The BlackBerry Tour2 9650 has Wi-Fi.
* The bottom row of keys is slightly shorter than the original BlackBerry Tour.
* Better camera. (Some forum members have suggested that to compete with other smartphones it should be 5 MP.)
* Different green call key.04-21-10 02:09 PMLike 0 - The S2 processor may or may not be real, like most everything else about this phone.

Maybe its just me, but seems like with the HTC Incredible, the price is somewhat more justifiable?

but i think us curve 83xx owners are foaming at the mouth for this bold.04-21-10 03:37 PMLike 0 - Right on! I'm an 8330 owner and I am desperate for wi-fi. I could have just given in and picked up the newest Curve when it came out, but I heard rumors back in October about this new and mysterious "Essex" coming out soon. Now 7 months later I'm still waiting for it, and I JUST WANT A BLACKBERRY WITH WI-FI ALREADY!!!04-21-10 03:44 PMLike 0
- Yes, thank you, eve6er69. And mystic205's comment is dead on target, too. Hopefully, they'll announce late next week and give us the real specs.04-21-10 04:01 PMLike 0

It is *believed* that a different processor is in it to better support OS 6.
And it is *believed * that the camera is a 3.2, just like all the test units have had.04-21-10 04:06 PMLike 0 - Right on! I'm an 8330 owner and I am desperate for wi-fi.
