BlackBerry Thunder Coming To Verizon


    Photos of the upcoming BlackBerry codenamed Thunder have leaked out, providing more details on the upcoming touchscreen Blackberry headed to Verizon Wireless.

    Despite being the first BlackBerry touch screen device, as you'll note in the photo, there are still quite a few hard keys.

    BlackBerry Thunder Specifications

    • Lock key: Lock and unlock the screen
    • USB port
    • Left/Right Convenience Keys: Allows you to assign applications to launch when the keys are pressed.
    • Play/Pause key: Play or pause a media file or mute a call
    • Headset jack
    • Volume keys
    • Call/End (power) keys
    • Menu key
    • Escape key (move back a screen)
    • Volume keys
    • microSD expansion

    With the BlackBerry Thunder, RIM clearly has their sights set on the iPhone. For those BlackBerry owners who were hesitant to make the jump to the iPhone, but wanted a touchscreen, the Thunder should certainly fill those needs. Expect the BlackBerry Thunder (not the official name) to make it's debut in Q3 of this year on Verizon Wireless.

    The Bold 9700 is, of course, a great phone. I don't think my Dad will give me money to buy it, but I'll see what I can do. I have an extra Xbox 360 Elite Go to last post
