For example, I have been planning on getting a new iPhone in June, but when I found out that new Dell phones are coming out by the end of the year I briefly considered waiting a few more months to get a Dell phone. However, I just can't wait that long. Which might prove your point, perhaps.]]>Apr 26th 2010 5:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/Apr 26th 2010 5:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/

on a more serious note...this is good news but i'm wondering what the minimum requirements will be since the 9650 is the only one i've heard about as being ready to upgrade to the 6.0 OS.]]>Apr 26th 2010 2:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/
No I definitely bet that all the "newer" generation, the 9700, 8900, tour, *maybe* 8520 will all be able to upgrade.]]>Apr 26th 2010 2:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/Apr 26th 2010 2:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/
Seeing that the 9650 is the only one with 512 MB, I'm guessing that will be a requirement.]]>Apr 26th 2010 3:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/If the 9700 can be upgraded, the 9000 should be capable, too... They're running the same processor, although I guess the 9700 has more "Flash Memory".

My real concern about the 9000 is that AT&T hasn't made 5.0 available for it yet. I know I can get my hands on the software and install it on my own, but it's a company phone, so I probably ought not take too many risks with it.]]>Apr 26th 2010 5:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/Apr 26th 2010 2:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/

I hear you. For enterprise use, I wonder how much of WP7 will take over their market share. For security, I understand why there's corporate appeal but everyone hates their BB in my company. It's basically used as an email client at this point and a free phone. Web browsing and apps are a pain to use.]]>Apr 26th 2010 2:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/
Windows 7 isn't going to put a dent in BlackBerry's share. You're comparing a platform that's known for piss poor security (and will continue to be that way) to a platform with virtually impenetrable security. Not to mention BES. Sometimes, the comments on this site makes me laugh. In the business enterprise environment no one is going to really touch RIM - not for a very long time, if ever.]]>Apr 26th 2010 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/
And even then you can't say WP7 would have piss-poor security because we haven't even seen the damn thing in action, just previews.

Suffice to say no one should believe it'll end BBM servers either. But it will shove a lot of competition their way.]]>Apr 26th 2010 2:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/Apr 26th 2010 2:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/
Wow, really? Do I actually have to type out Windows Phone 7 in an article that's talking about mobile operating systems? I think everyone knew what I meant and it's not my fault that Microsoft didn't just call it Windows 7 Mobile (which makes a lot more sense than Windows Phone 7). But, you're right Mr. Interwebz Police man. WP7 still isn't going to put a dent in BlackBerry in enterprise. It's still Windows and therefore by nature will have bad security. But, that's irrelevant because really this industry is all about reputation and Microsoft has the LOWEST market share of all the smart phone companies courtesy of their reputation. It doesn't really matter what they do at this point because the damage is done. To the few Windows mobile fans left WP7 will be nice, but don't plan on it offering up any major challenge to BlackBerry, iPhone or Android.]]>Apr 26th 2010 2:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/
I have to agree about the whole apps thing. You deserve a slap if you buy a BlackBerry for the apps, but the email-client-requiring business man is their intended market. So many people I know at university are picking up BlackBerrys and hating them for that reason alone, I should know, I was one of them but my contract is almost up now and while it's not a 'fun' device by any stretch, it is easily been the best phone I've had for communication.
As far as bare communication goes, (calling, texting, facebooking, msn-ing and emailing) nothing can touch it. It's a simple system that works incredibly well and I really will miss the push email feature and I'll be really interested to see if they can make a dent in the 'fun' market with OS6.]]>Apr 26th 2010 2:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/

It is not made for the "young mind". My Blackberry's have so many features that it is truly in its own Olympiad as far as organization goes.

Its not aimed at the mass-appeal market.

Nice to see RIM are on the ball with their updates anyway. Gotta respect them for that.
Even though my contract will be up and there will (hopefully) be a shiny HTC phone in my pocket by then, I'll still whip out the old Bold in the hope that OS6 lands there. :)]]>Apr 26th 2010 2:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/Apr 26th 2010 2:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/

I have an answer for you. How about 90% of all corporate business people? I have my iPhone for my personal matters. I have my Blackberry for business. I would MUCH rather type on a keyboard than a touch screen and have to edit my messages a LOT less. I have no problems multi-tasking my my Blackberry or receiving HTML e-mail. When was the last time you used one?

They each serve a purpose zig. I wouldn't choose one over the other because they each do certain things better.

BTW: For my REAL real 3-D gaming I have my PSP and DS where 3D gaming belongs.]]>Apr 26th 2010 2:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/blackberry-6-coming-in-third-quarter-of-this-year/Apr 26th 2010 4:03PM
