Highlights include:

The 8330 saw shelves for the first time this week, debuting on Telus, and hitting Bell by the end of the week. Looks like the Canadians have outdone us here, as Verizon and Sprint haven’t launched their versions yet.

And a new BlackBerry for…Nextel. No, that’s not a typo. There’s no official model or release date or anything, but it’s something that CEO Dan Hesse dropped on us. Will this be part of the road to Nextel’s recover? Nah.

The Boys Genius bring us a sneak peak at Desktop Manager 4.5. If you burn CDs, you might not be too happy with it. They also speculate a timeline for BES 5.0. Maybe late this year, maybe early next year…but we should hear something about it at WES.
