The Tour! After waiting months to hear about it, we got official announcements a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, pricing and release dates were missing. That changed this week, as both Verizon and Sprint announced that they will release the device on July 12 for $199.99, after a mail-in rebate. There’s plenty to say about the Tour, so listen on.

A couple of big smartphone releases took the spotlight over the past week: the Palm Pre and the Apple iPhone. That doesn’t mean we’re going to forget about BlackBerry, though. You might read in the media that the iPhone and Pre are going to do some damage, but just remember that the media feeds on narrative, and the narrative changes constantly.

We’ve got an uncharacteristically long show today, as there’s a lot to go over. Mike Lazaridis spoke during the week about RIM’s foray into the consumer device market, so there’s that to discuss. Plus, there are all those handset rumors.

It’s all about the BlackBerry Storm 2. We thought the Tour would be the next big BlackBerry release, and it still might be. However, it looks like the Storm 2 will hit shelves at about the same time, giving Verizon a 1-2 BlackBerry punch unmatched by any other carrier.

It’s the WES show. Unfortunately, not everything we anticipated actually happened, which leads to a bit of a sad tenor. Still, plenty went down at WES, so make sure to check out what we have from earlier in the week. There are some pretty cool apps and partnerships which could lead to a better BB experience down the road.

We run a little long on this BBGeekcast, because I wanted to squeeze in two major rumors for WES: The Tour 9630 and OS 5.0. The intent was just to introduce the rumors, but I went on little rant about OS 5.0. I’d have liked to see a true overhaul of the OS, rather than have it be more like OS 4.9.

With WES rapidly approaching, we’re a little light on device news, which we just love to talk about on the BBGeekcast. However, there are still a few things to chatter about, including a RIM triumph over Apple.
