Highlights include:
The BlackBerry Tour has finally been announced, but we’re still awaiting a release date. Indicators are that it will hit Telus on July 15, but that’s not set in stone. Will it reach the U.S. first? Maybe. It would make sense if it did, but it’s no guarantee. Two things we do know: it will hit both Verizon and Sprint, and it will be $199.99. No big surprises there.
Another new device, the Onyx, has been reviewed and has also gotten an upgrade. First was the software, which identified it as the 9020, therefore in the Bold family. Second is hardware. Yes, they’ve updated it with the optical trackpad. So that’s something to be excited over. It’ll probably hit AT&T, and almost certainly drop before the holidays. This and the Storm 2 will be the next devices on the watch list after the Tour.
