The BlackBerry Bold 9700 has finally been announced. Details have been leaking in about the “Onyx<\/a>” for months and most of the seem to be true in hindsight. The BlackBerry Bold 9000 successor rocks a Tour<\/a>-like keyboard but ditches the trackball in favor of a little trackpad like in the Curve 8520<\/a>. The camera has been upped to 3.2MP and the screen is now a 480 x 320 display. Just like the Storm 2, the 9700 runs BlackBerry OS 5.0 and all the goodies are included like threaded messaging, updated BB Messenger, and BlackBerry Maps.<\/p>\n

Best of all RIM is launching the phone to nearly every GSM carrier in North America and Europe in November although International carrier-specific\u00a0pricing is hard to come by right now. That will probably change in a day or two though.<\/p>\n

AT&T has announced that it will sell the phone for $199 after a $100 mail-in rebate, and T-Mobile is expected to follow suit although it’s press release<\/a> doesn’t mention a price. What it does mention however is that the phone will be able to make unlimited calls off of WiFi for $10 per month, which is something AT&T is slowly accepting too although it seems that AT&T’s flavor will lack that ability.<\/p>\n\n
