Default Question?

Please Login to Remove!

I had a look at this phone on RIM's comparison chart with the Bold being the second phone to compare it to... Why is RIM releasing this phone? I mean 3MP camera is cool but there is no bluetooh support in the device, so I guess that means people have bluetooh head phones and or bluetooh in their cars won't be buying it anytime soon.

According to the comparison I just looked at (Bold, 8900, Tour), the Tour DOES have Bluetooth (of bluetooh) - "Bluetooth v2.0; mono/stereo headset, hands-free, Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP), and serial port profile supported. Bluetooth stereo audio (A2DP/AVCRP), DUN".

Perhaps it is being released since CDMA carriers do not have a Bold or Javelin equivalent yet.

Yes. I am a CDMA user waiting for this hybrid of the two.

256 Megs or RAM & ROM ... That's what I am excited about.

Yes, I hope the increased memory eliminates the laggyness that I've experienced with every blackberry I've owned.

If the increased memory doesn't help the processor will.
