There is a reason people are addicted to their blackberrys and not some shitty want to be blackberry phone. RIM has nailed down this form factor and its OS (non storm) is rock solid. Go back to your bridge and hang yourself from it

Now if they made a BB with a slide out keyboard would be nice attraction to the non business consumer IMHO. Maybe the Storm2 will be improved and more for the non business user. ]]>Jul 1st 2009 1:12PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/Jul 1st 2009 3:05PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/
Oh and while you were out, the year 2000 called. They want their phone OS back.

If you think RIM is not very concerned by the iPhone, the need to rewrite the BB OS, and the need for a real SDK then you just aren't paying attention.]]>Jul 1st 2009 4:26PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/Jul 1st 2009 10:38PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/

and gives it a more modern Blackberry feel/look to it.

though hands down I do believe both VZW and Sprint are stepping their phone game up. (Espcially now with Blackberries since CDMA carriers aren't very lucky on getting Blackberries.)]]>Jul 1st 2009 4:24PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/Jul 1st 2009 5:12PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/Jul 1st 2009 5:23PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/Jul 1st 2009 5:31PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/
And yup this Blackberry looks like most of the others. All iPhones look alike too. Both designs have been copied over and over because they are popular. The Blackberry form factor also has the advantage of being functional.
I don't understand the comments about the Blackberry being and old tired form factor when it is still so popular that other manufacturers feel they need to copy the form factor to meet the needs of their customers. If it was truly a tired old form factor that is losing popularity wouldn't you see everyone jumping ship and making something else?]]>Jul 1st 2009 5:31PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/Jul 1st 2009 7:19PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/so slick. i want it...like, now.]]>Jul 1st 2009 7:26PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/The Doc told me I was suffering from a berry common syndrome.
Said he's seen an outbreak of uncontrollable salivating recently.
Anyway he checked my salivary glands and said they were "engorged and excited" and should go away by July 12th.
Nothing serious. Doc said I was gonna be OK. He prescribed some NoDoze and Red Bull until July 12th.
I thanked him and went to Fry's to get a replacement keyboard.
My old one shorted out from all the saliva.
Can't wait till the 12th
Yeeha!!!!!]]>Jul 1st 2009 10:10PMhttp://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/http://engmobdev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/verizon-blackberry-tour-unboxing/What is it about the Tour that has people so excited?
I know people are terribly excited, but I haven't seen any concrete reasons why. It's usually just some form of salivating/eagerness in comments without any meat behind them.

Are the specs impressive? I've not seen them listed anywhere save for the 3 megapixel camera, and that's not terribly exciting in 2009. Is it the looks that have people drooling? It is a handsome Blackberry, but it's not drastically different from other handsets of theirs.

What is it that I'm missing, and why should I want this more than the Bold on AT&T? (aside from, of course, complaints about AT&T's network)]]>Jul 2nd 2009 6:24AM
