I need the 9700 now. The trackball on my Bold is pissing me off. Is there any way to install a trackpad on the Bold.

First Look: BlackBerry "Atlas" SmartphoneShows Off For Camera, Looking Mighty Fine!
Posted in News &Rumors on 29 Sep 2009 21:23 by Bla1ze |
* Update from Kevin: Nice... jump off a plane and look what got posted while in the air!Couple clarifications... in the photo above, "atlas" is on the left while it's a Bold 9700 on the right. While atlas is looking more like aCDMA Curve 8900 (8930?!), don't get this confused with the "essex", which is a more Tour-like follow updevice (with WiFi, trackpad and maybe a bigger camera plus orientation sensor). Between the Curve 8530, Tour and essex, and adding an atlas (assuming it goesto market), there's gonna be a flood of full qwerty BlackBerry Smartphones offered on the CDMA market. NowLet's see some vids sal! *
CrackBerry forums member Salomondrin has been extra busy these days, makingvideos and taking pics for us all to enjoy and drool over. Seems this time though, he got us all looking at what's come to be known as the BlackBerryAtlas. CDMA, WiFi all set off with the keyboard from the 8900 series devices, some details have been left out that weactually mentioned in the CrackBerry podcast. Details being the camera quality, which is rumored to be more then 3.2MP but at this time cannot beconfirmed.
Salomondrin has stated he will be posting up more pics and videos for us soon to get a closer look at it. Keep your eyes open for Sal's updates, therewill be more coming. So, CDMA users how ya all feel with the love from RIM these days?

You can buy a trackball on ebay for like 3-4 dollars and replace it yourself

Yeah, I'd like to know that too. I have the Curve 8330, would probably get the Tour in a month unless there's something else coming outsoon enough for Sprint.
Actually, just did some Googling and checked out Crackberry, maybe the Tour 2 aka Essex?
That's what I did, got on for a little over $2, works fine now.Originally Posted by Whateversclever

Keep copy & pasting from blog sites. It's a GSM device and says "Bold" on the back.
That is all.

It's not the same phone side by side genius. 9700 is on the right. Look at the keyboards and size.

All i did was take the pic of his barcode above, it synced up, and now we're contacts.
so where can you find this barcode within your phone? or is this only available if you upgrade the os to 5.0? currently i have the 8900 os 4.6

I ended up just buying a full housing replacement ($20) and doing it myself. Took literally 10 mins, and will hopefully boost the value of minesome when I get ready to let it go. Just waiting for the next decent BB to drop for AT&T.Originally Posted by ddot7
