BlackBerry Curve 8900 (Javelin) Gets A Video Walkthrough

Before I picked up my iPhone, I was seriously considering a Blackberry Curve. Now I'm very happy with it but I know that it's not everyone's cup of tea, considering that quite a few people hate not having a tactile keyboard. So I know that the Crackberry heads out there will appreciate the video walkthrough of the new BlackBerry Curve 8900 (aka Javelin). Crackberry features older Curve and the new Bold, which is cool because the 8900 is a combination of the two.

Check it out.

Blackberry Bold Having 3G Connection Issues?

Well it looks like the 3G iPhone isn't the only hot new phone having connection issues on the 3G network. The Blackberry Bold is already in the hands of lucky bastards in German, Chil, and Canada tomorrow morning. But reports are coming in that the Bold is plagued by the same 3G connection issues that the iPhone has been dealing with. Rumor has it that the Bold drops you to the Edge network even when there's a perfectly good 3G signal.

That I'm sure sounds familar to some iPhone owners.

Citigroup analyst Jim Suva thinks this is why AT&T has delayed the release of the new Blackberry in the States. Until AT&T sorts out the iPhone mess (some speculate that it's hardware releated), Suva thinks that AT&T will not introduce the new Blackberry.

Sounds like AT&T only wants to deal with one issue at a time, and I can't really blame them.

Blackberry Bold's Pricing To Be Very Bold

Well if you were looking to add that Blackberry Bold to your gadget collection, be ready to pony up some serious coin. Our neighbors to the north will be getting the Bold first, and it looks like we’ve gotten a sneak peek at the pricing. According to this leaked photo the Bold will cost the Cannucks $399 with a 3 year soul sucking contract. This is rather steep considering the same cellular company Rogers is offering the iphone for $199. That most likely means that the price will be similar in the states, and that puts to bed any thought of price wars with Blackberry and Apple.

Not sure if this is a good move on Blackberry’s part, considering the adoption of the iphone into the Business world.
