While the Storm 2 or the Niagara will be certainly great phones when they will be ready for the masses, we feel like RIM still needs to up the ante with a really hot Berry capable of fighting off that Pre or the new iPhone.

The Wireless Enterprise Symposium being held next week in Orlando, FL, is likely to be the event chosen by Research in Motion to unveil new devices. Besides the Niagara which is going to be announced at WES a new BlackBerry handset called the Apex should also be made public.

We have no idea what kind of phone will the Apex be. Is it a flip as the rumors say? Is it a regular Berry with different features? We’ll tell you more in a week or so.

The BlackBerry 9630 Niagara is the next hot Berry out there and everyone is talking about it. The video clip above is nearly not long enough to describe all its features but it’s a start. The phone is scheduled to arrive later this year from Verizon Wireless and we’re probably going to see it arrive around the world from other carriers too. What do you think so far? What’s the hottest BlackBerry phone for you? The Niagara? The Storm? The Bold?

This time we have some release news for you, we don’t just bring more leaked pictures of the BlackBerry 9630 Niagara. The phone seems to be on its way to Verizon Wireless. The carrier will launch it in May according to various sources. Unfortunatelly we will still have to wait for Big Red to officially admit to all this and maybe offer us some prices.

We know you didn’t get a good look at the Niagara the last time around, and so here we are with some more snaps, courtesy of CrackBerry.  The guys over at CB even had an actual device to play around with and if you are the kind who prefer moving pictures, they have got videos too.  As we already told you, the BlackBerry 9630 Niagara will support both CDMA, GSM, and UMTS networks making it a world phone, has a 3.2 megapixel camera, a full QWERTY keypad, and that good old BlackBerry wickedness.  If a touchscreen BlackBerry won’t get you on, this is what you should definitely be looking at.

The BlackBerry 9630 Niagara has appeared again and this time we have better pictures. From what we can see so far the handset is turned on and it should be fully functional. So what is RIM still waiting for? If the phone works we should be able to officially get it soon. Maybe those folks with the camera and the leopard print there might be kind enough to drop a few specs our way in the near future!

The Niagara is the future BlackBerry 9630 which should arrive from Verizon Wireless in the future. It will have support for CDMA 1x, EV-DO Rev. A, GSM, GPRS, EDGE and UMTS. Unfortunately there’s no WiFi support in this Niagara. The phone might arrive in May or June but we definitely need confirmation. And we could use some pricing details too. Considering that the Pre and possibly the third-generation iPhone are also coming out around the same period, which one would you choose?

Verizon plans to add another RIM phone to its BlackBerry collection. This time we’re talking about the BlackBerry Niagara which is supposed to be smaller than the Bold but larger than the Curve 8900. The Niagara will offer 3G connectivity via EV-DO rev A, a 480 x 360 resolution display, A-GPS, a 3.2 megapixels camera, a full QWERTY keyboard and RIM’s software: BlackBerry Enterprise Server 5.0 and BlackBerry OS 4.6. Now we need some pricing details and arrival dates and we’ll be good to go.

Sprint hasn’t had any new Berries in quite a while. The carrier missed out on the Storm and the Bold although it did launch its iDEN Curve a while ago. But if you happen to be a Sprint customer with a hidden passion for RIM’s BlackBerries then you are in luck. The company will launch the BlackBerry Niagara in Q1 2009. Or so the people say.

The Niagara is a CDMA version of the Bold and it features a full-QWERTY keyboard, 480×360 display, EV-DO Rev. A and aGPS support, WiFi and a 3.2 megapixel camera. Since it’s just a rumor for now we don’t have any details regarding actual arrival dates and pricing.

The title gives my surprise speaker pretty much away don’t you think? But the question is, is the sound coming from this Diamond Glass Tower, crystal clear. Here’s why the Niagara Waterfall Speakers cost just $53,000. For certain parts of the Waterfall Speakers, Niagara uses high quality Nappa leather hand stitched by a upholsterer in France. Other parts are made out of a solid aluminum block. The entire enclosure is made in 15mm thick Diamond Glass. The bottom panel houses a 21cm Atohm 18 cm ultra low frequency passive bass driver in a down firing position to extend bass frequencies.

Would you pay the $53,000 for a pair of speakers? At this price it’s a pretty hard decision to take especially with the current economical crisis.
