I love how I go to the Verizon store in BJ's and ask a very smart looking Korean Verizon employee "Any idea when the Bold 9650 is coming out?" very politely and he kinda had a grin on his face and said "I don't know" almost angrily... I don't understand what the big "secret" is with this phone if Verizon released that information saying its released the 4th, than why do the employees act like I am on crack when I ask them when it will be released?? I'm getting so annoyed with Verizon.. Like why do they have to do this?

becuase he's simply a salesperson and dont care for any other product but the ones in front of him. I dont even bother asking in store vzw employees or kiosk employees.

I don't think they can say anything until it's officially announced, probably.

To me, this is typical of any kind of sales. For example, go into a dealership and ask then when the redesigned 2011 model is due out. They will give you that deer into the headlights look..."redesigned? I haven't heard anything about that before".

Why do they do this, because they don't want the customer to leave and come back at a later date instead of making a purchase today.

Yeah, but when looking back to what we have had to deal with, a couple of days will be a breeze.

BlackBerry Bold 9650 (BlackBerry Tour2) to Boldy Tour Verizon 6/3 an' 6/10? - Non-Camera Version Too

"The BlackBerry snoops have been taking photos of Verizon internal emails to show that the BlackBerry Bold 9650, formerly known as the BlackBerry Tour2 will be available for direct fulfillment(online) June 3 and on sale at Verizon Wireless stores on June 8.

The good news for corporate users is that there will be a non-camera version of the Bold 9650, you can also have conferences via Push-to-Talk.

The email also reports the features of the BlackBerry Bold 9650 aka BlackBerry Tour2 which include

* World Ready for use in over 220 Destinations with pre-installed SIM card.
* QWERTY keyboad with trackpad.
* 2.4" TFT LCD Display 480 x 360, 65k color support.
* 3.2 Megapixel Camera with Flash (non-camera version also available)
* Push-to-Talk. Note: Verizon is offering BlackBerry Tour users free Push-to-Talk for life when they sign up by June 30.
* Onboard Memory- 512MB Flash/512MB RAM.
* Comes with a 2GB microSD card.

The BlackBerry Bold 9650 was announced at WES to go on sale in May from Sprint.Features of the BlackBerry Bold 9650 include a trackpad that works well and a faster processor, the same as the BlackBerry Storm2, which makes it run faster. It's about the same size as the original BlackBerry Tour, while the bottom row of keys is slightly shorter than the original BlackBerry Tour.

We don't know yet, if the BlackBerry Bold 9650 will qualify for the Buy-One-Get-One-Free smartphone deal from Verizon with a contract. We don't know a price, yet. Don't forget to use the Instant Phone Rebate Only Available with Online Purchase coupon-link to avoid waiting for a rebate."

Might be?

Nah, THIS IS IT!!!

Get ready for Thursday!!!!!

The books are a lot better, in my opinion. The interesting thing is after seeing the movie, if you go and read the book, you picture the actors/actresses from the movie saying lines from the book.

Sorry, way off tangent... I am very excited that I ordered my 9650 and I should have it by Friday.

Yes, I am well aware. I've read the series numerous, numerous times. Books are always better, but I think people expect too much. It's impossible to fit 600+ pages into a 2 and a half hour time slot and NOT cut out anything.
