Well, RIM's site has the new 9000 all over their
front page. It is now called The Bold and it does look awsome.
3.5G, WiFi, fast processor, 480X320 screen (half-VGA?), 128MB flash and 1GB on-board memory, 16 GB microSD/SDHC car support, and on and on.....
The only concern that struck me is that the screen looks smaller than my 8830 and that would be a real negative for me.
CNet also posted a review
here.
AT&T is designated to have it first, but only "later this year".
Things are heating up.....
