I'm not too sure about this one. RIM hasn't even acknowledged the Tour's existence.

akosnitzky · **OS:** 5.0.0.419

We shall see

SteveO86 · **OS:** 4.5.0.160

I hope so.. I'm surprised they never announced it any major event...

We will know in less then 24 hours!!

I was hoping for 5.0

I suppose it could be 5.0...the review I read on CB was from March and it stated 4.7.

akosnitzky · **OS:** 5.0.0.419

So the drama continues

SteveO86 · **OS:** 4.5.0.160

4.7, I though was only for the Storm/TouchScreen..

I'd at least guess to say, all the "next-gen" BB's to get 5.0 by the end of year. (Or by WES/CES/CTIA of next year, did RIM officially so anything about Device OS 5.0 they did ALOT of talk about BES 5.0 )

Sprint is also getting this Device coming this summer, has been confirmed!

BlackBerry - Tour â€“ BlackBerry 9630 Smartphones â€“ RIM Tour

Yay ! cant wait to get it!

SteveO86 · **OS:** 4.5.0.160

Still nothing from VZW yet??!!

skllndy365 · **OS:** 4.7.1.40

Any news of a official release date?

SteveO86 · **OS:** 4.5.0.160

Nothing from VZW yet.

skllndy365 · **OS:** 4.7.1.40

I feel your anger/pain.

mriff · **OS:** 4.7.1.40

I'm ready for this device. The ATT boys have been running around with the bold for what, a year? All we got was the Storm. Which I passed on.

skllndy365 · **OS:** 4.7.1.40

I'm looking to get this whenever it comes out...Will end up having to wait until October-ish when Im able to get an upgrade though..At least ill hear all the pros/cons by then. Maybe the price will be lowered by then too.

It was announced by Sprint and RIM 4 days ago. One article said VZW had not released a launch date as of press time. RIM BlackBerry Tour 9630 (Sprint) Smartphone reviews - CNET Reviews

Lol. I've had my 8830 for coming up on two years. I'm ready man.

SteveO86 · **OS:** 4.5.0.160

Well then you are a trooper, I dropped my 8830 for the Curve 2 months after it's release on VZW

mriff · **OS:** 4.7.1.40

I would have too, but mine is a company phone and my contract isn't up yet. And the release of 4.5 kind of kept me going for little while. But I'll jump at the this one. Unless Atlas is revealed as something to wait a little longer for.

Donbp · 06-21-2009, 09:15 AM

A rep in the local VZ store told me "some day in July" for the Tour when I was there this week. Since this is the rumor mill I figured I would throw that out.

Yep, the rumored release date is July 13th..

akosnitzky · **OS:** 5.0.0.419

I would feel more comfortable if we had official word from carrier.

SteveO86 · **OS:** 4.5.0.160

That would actually be nice. Wonder what they are waiting on....

akosnitzky · **OS:** 5.0.0.419

Yeah. Obviously, the close we get to mid July with no news, the least likely. Anyone have a contact?

SteveO86 · **OS:** 4.5.0.160

Actually got some VZW guys swinging by the office.. Maybe I could get some info from them

Of course they never called me back confirming when they were coming lol.

akosnitzky · **OS:** 5.0.0.419

Wirelessly posted (Its All About the U!)

Crackberry posted an article which may have inferred that this is still a go for July. We shall see.

SteveO86 · **OS:** 4.5.0.160

Forgot to ask the VZW guys about the Tour :(

But LTE/4G looks good for the end of next year

at least that is what they are hoping.

7 MBs down on a mobile phone that's pretty sick.. With the capability of expansion/upgrades.. That's gonna be some wicked technology.

More meetings with VZW will happen in the future hopefully I remember next time.. at work I tend to think about different things lol

Donbp · 10:11 AM

Appears Tour will be coming to VZ on the 12th. This looks legit.

BGR has the preview ad posted this morning.

SteveO86 · **OS:** 4.5.0.160

Nothing official form VZW yet though??/
