Photos have appeared of a new BlackBerry device that is codenamed 'Onyx'. Onyx is a 3G enabled GSM BlackBerry device that is reportedly headed to AT&T later this year. T-Mobile might receive a UMA-enabled version known as the Driftwood. In the coming weeks, AT&T is expected to rollout the BlackBerry Curve 8900.The Onyx appears to be part Bold and part Curve. That's a good thing right?

A reader on BGR sent in this screenshot of his bold that includes an icon for Visual Voicemail. That would certainly be a nice feature upgrade if it pans out. Selecting the icon resulted in a "provisioning unsucessful" error, so clearly this is not ready for primetime. The reader was using build 4.6.0.219, a far cry from the official 4.6.0.167 build that is the last official build from AT&T.

RIM and AT&T have set up a registration website for BlackBerry Bold launch parties. The registration appears to be for resellers of BlackBerry devices, but the real news here is that we are finally close to the official release of the BlackBerry Bold. Just yesterday, we told you about an anticipated release date of October 26th at Best Buy. All signs point to a BlackBerry Bold release date one week prior, or the week of October 20th. Stay tuned or as RIM would say, Stay Bold!
