    BlackBerry Device Roadmap for the US

    After compiling some leaked and rumored data about RIM's new line of devices, we have come up with a small roadmap of possible future release dates.

    The first thing you will notice when looking at the roadmap, is the Torch 2 9810. It seems that AT&T has lost its Torch exclusivity, because you can see T-Mobile will be launching the device. Do you think this because AT&T has the the exclusivity or just because AT&T is going to be buying T-Mobile??

    The second thing you will notice is the possibility that all devices will be out on the marketing by Black Friday. This will be key for the carriers sales and work great for the holiday season if it works out this way.

    We've yet to see the Torch 9810, Torch 9860 or Curve 9360 be officially announced by RIM, but it seems these devices may be released by Telus in merely 30 days from now.

    The unnamed source provided the following dates as tentatively scheduled:

    • BlackBerry Torch 9810 – August 19th
    • BlackBerry Bold Touch 9900 – August 18 or 19th
    • BlackBerry Torch 9860 – August 26th
    • BlackBerry “Bellagio” (possibly Curve 9360) – Late September

    With their previous video being taken down quickly, MacBerry has posted yet another video of the BlackBerry 9860. It's a nice device, but I'm still leaning towards the Bold 9900.

    Virgin Mobile Canada has decided to drop their price for the Pearl 3G to $149 off contract. This now makes the device budget-minded for those who want a prepaid BlackBerry. I might pick up one of these as a backup device to my Bold 9780.

    With many devices launching in the next few months, we've not seen many images leak of the BlackBerry Torch 9860 (Monaco/Monza) until now. This is certainly a nice update to the Storm devices of the past. Personally I'm more excited to see the 9900 launched, but I'm certain some of you are loving this form factor.

    If you love the clamshell form-factor, you'll be happy to know that Boost Mobile will be releasing the BlackBery Style 9670 later this month.

    Pricing is uncertain, as we've heard from sources at Best Buy that their inventory is saying $280, while the screenshot from Boost pins it at $199.

    When I first saw this video I was amazed at what this Playbook can do. In the hands of some good coders the applications and possibilities are endless. Who would have thought that the BlackBerry Playbook would be doing Police Record searches for James Bond?!?! lol

    This video shows the world that the Playbook is going to dominate the professional world. iPads are just a toy compared to the Playbook! The PlayBook's multi-tasking capabilities are shown off perfectly in this video, with Google maps, video camera, Police records, light controller and other apps all running smoothly together.

    This is how a Playbook can be used in a professional world. I am super excited for all those officers that are going to get one of these sweet setups in their car, and I am not even a cop! lol

    If you live in Canada & are excited to know when you can get one of the new OS7 BlackBerry smartphones, your patience has come to fruition. Our friends at TechF.I.B.E have leaked a Bell's Q3 BlackBerry lineup.

    We are seeing the Blackberry Bold 9900, Torch 9860 (Codenamed Monza/Storm 3), and the Torch 9810 having a late August launch date, with the Curve 9360 being delayed to sometime in September. These dates aren't guaranteed, as RIM & carriers have been known to change release dates before.

    RIM Continues to Decline in U.S. Mobile Subscriber Market Share

    Recent numbers put out by comScore shows that RIM continues a steady slow decline this year in the US Smartphone Market share. RIM has suffered a 1% drop from 25.7% to 24.7% since the last report given by comScore ending in April 2011. It will be interesting to see how the numbers change when Verizon starts to sell three of the upcoming BlackBerry Smartphones in their stores later this year. Let's hope RIM can climb back up on top with this rekindled Verizon partnership.

    BlackBerry Bold 9900 camera demo in 720p HD video

    If you have been wondering about how the camera will be able to function on the new BlackBerry Bold 9900, Into Mobile has demonstrated some video shots of what the device has to offer. BlackBerrys have generally been behind when it comes to camera power and speed. Having a very steady hand is a must to take a picture with your Berry. With the Bold 9900 having much more power than any other previous smartphone, and with a 5-megapixel camera that can do 720p HD, the results are better than anything we BB users have seen before. The 720p HD videos looked pretty clean. And, according to the author that shot the videos, motion didn’t seem to bother it that much. However, there was some criticism on the audio quality. Head to the Forum to see the video demonstrations.

    White Bold Touch 9900 to Hit Amazon UK on October 15th

    A snapshot (Seen Below) of Amazon UK, shows the Bold Touch 9900 available for shipment on October 15th and in white. Currently, we have not seen an news of a white 9900, or any other color, however this is no more. We now have some info that is pointing on a white version of the 9900 to be launched in the UK. Will that white launch in the US, or will we have other colors? The purple and deep red are a favorite of RIM, other than Black, so we will have to wait and see.

    Rumor: RIM working on an Apple TV-like device?

    New device announcements always get us excited. There is rumor that RIM is developing a Media Box, similar to Apple TV. The source who leaked this information is the same individual who leaked info of the BlackBerry PlayBook & BlackBerry Presenter.

    Apparently the device will be less consumer focused, so Netflix integration might not be in the plans for this rumored device.

    The device is rumored to be a crossover of the BlackBerry Presenter and a set top box, powered by a QNX-based operating system.

    Will we see this device in time for the 2011 Holiday season?

    We'll keep you updated as we receive more information on this rumored device.

    Google has just updated their search experience for BlackBerry devices running on OS 6. They have added a number of enhanced search features integrated throughout the homepage and search result pages, making searching faster and easier on google, especially on touch-enabled BlackBerry devices. These features and more are available on most RIM OS 6.0+ devices with WebKit browsers like the BlackBerry Torch and BlackBerry Bold 9780, and can be accessed in 20 languages across 70 countries:

    • Enter searches faster: Save time by using autocomplete and search history queries that appear beneath the search box as you type.
    • Web search: Find what you're searching for fast. Comprehensive results pages let you see relevant websites, images, videos, news, real-time results and more. Simply click on the arrow button ‘>>’ to the left of the top search box for more refinement options.
    • Image search: Swipe through image results quickly and easily on touch enabled devices. Start by selecting ‘Images’ at the top of google.com, then enter a search. From there, click on any image to view a larger size.
    • Local search: Find restaurants, shops and other popular business categories with a single tap. Start by selecting ‘Places’ at the top of google.com, then click on an icon from the Places homepage.

    To try out the new features, go to www.google.com from your mobile browser.

    Apparently someone decided to tip their waiter in a bizarre way today & let him play with some unreleased BlackBerry smartphones.

    Californa Sandwiches tweeted a photo of the BlackBerry Bold Touch 9900 & BlackBerry Torch 9860 out in the wild somewhere in downtown Toronto. As you can see from the photo, both devices are rockin' on the Telus Mobility network.

    Is a Telus Mobility release of these devices closer than we had previously expected?
