Here’s the first official shot of the 9700 (codenamed Onyx), T-Mobile’s first 3G BlackBerry.
The BlackBerry Bold 9700 is the successor of the well known BlackBerry Bold.
For starters, the BlackBerry Bold 9700 rocks the same optical track pad seen on the BlackBerry Curve 8520. That means slipping from menu to menu is easier than ever but apparently RIM’s preloading it with the Amazon MP3 store, so that’s slightly interesting. T-Mobile says 9700 will support UMA Wi-Fi calling, visual voicemail, and corporate email. They also confirmed that it will have TeleNav GPS Navigator and Amazon MP3 store pre-installed. From what we can tell, it’s due in early November, but pricing is still unclear – we hope that RIM and T-Mobile have saved the best surprise for last.
Other leaked specifications are below
- New Trackpad
- Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE
- UMTS/HSDPA
- 480×360 resolution screen
- Wi-Fi (802.11g)
- OS 5.0
- QWERTY keyboard
- 3.2 megapixel AF camera
- Bluetooth

I like speed when going from menu to menu. I hate wasting time fiddling around and trying to get a menu to come up.
Wonderful posting, well written I must say.
