Very nice I was undecided between the Bold and the Javelin but my lack of patience got the better of me!

John Clark · **OS:** 4.6.1.250

Yep, the Javelin is the BB for me.

I'm definitely jealous this time.

He will get that and more - ask for what you can get, nothing wrong with that.

BBChristopher · 09-11-2008, 10:15 AM

It's over $2000 now....and going up. That's a lot of money for something that RIM may disable in a week.

I don't begrudge him selling it though....if someone is willing to pay for it I hope he gets all he can.

machiavell1 · **OS:** 4.6.0.134

How was the AF camera? I'd love to know if RIM has nailed that....

ShaynePierce · **OS:** 4.6.1.174

That third picture - is the Javelin the second device from the left?

The BlackBerry Kid · **OS:** 4.2.1.107

does the trackball even light up on it, it looks so much darker than the curve or bold pearl.

techluvr1234 · **OS:** 4.6.0.247

i want that... gimme!

This is insane: Current bid: US $4,056.99

She's a beaut all right! Looks like a mini-Bold in that first pic. Very slick piece of kit.

But I would be worried that it's on of those pre-production, "property of Research In Motion" deals that gets the PIN turned off by RIM. We saw enough of that with the Bold.

fr0zen · 09-11-2008, 10:19 PM

actually the javelin does not say "Property of Research in Motion" Anywhere.

I have seen many pre-production unit, most have the sticker at the back and when you turn them on the RIM logo comes which says not for resale. This one does not have that.. it starts up and says Blackberry...thats all

fr0zen · 09-11-2008, 10:19 PM

fyi: more pics and maybe a video to come soon as well...

John Clark · **OS:** 4.6.1.250

Holy $#!7 batman!!! It's up to $4056!!!!!!!!!!!! You've GOT to be kidding me!!!!!

John Clark · **OS:** 4.6.1.250

Especially when in a month it's going to be worth about $300 tops.

WorldIRC · 09-12-2008, 01:29 AM

^$300 Tops~~~~~

and you thought $900 was a lot? There are still 5 days left. Wonder if it'll top $7k

greggebhardt · 09-12-2008, 01:24 PM

I am on my way to bid!

Greg, what do you do, and how do I do it?!?

azrizal · **OS:** 4.7.0.87

this one is indeed a better build!! congrats

Jason Mark · 09-12-2008, 03:15 PM

Thats stupidity. The same people bidding the jack up the price. That device is no where close to worth $4000. Espically when it'll be out in a month, and you can have a warranty, and be assured that it will work. IMO

I personally agree. I'm still undecided. I thought I was decided on the Bold, but I may wait on the Javelin for AT&T. I guess we'll have to see. I definitely miss my Blackberry.

fr0zen · 09-12-2008, 04:07 PM

back down to $2000 i think....
