01 Jun 08 Spotted: BlackBerry 9500 “Thunder”
Soon after RIM released the BlackBerry 9000 aka Bold, we were told a new model is in the works, the 9500 called Thunder. I’ll just remind you that the Thunder will be BlackBerry first touch only phone. We’ll have to wait and see how that’s going to work out. I bet there are lots of RIM fans who love that full QWERTY keyboard.
The picture above has been spotted with Horizon Wireless. Can I preorder the Thunder already? Is this another well manufactured fake in order to attract traffic and increase sales? The picture isn’t really that clear and some say that would indicate it’s original. But why take a blurry picture when you can go full 5MP on that Thunder? Was it taken somewhere in Iraq while running from insurgents?
Since I showed you at least five “original” 3G iPhone pictures, I wouldn’t be surprised if this was just another fake.
