    nikki, 27 Apr 2011okay , what's the point of having small touchscreen?? soon... moresome people would prefer to had a real keyboard than a touchscreen one..
    i would say that this phone has a nice upgrade, plus RIM has it's own lover, i'm sure there are people who would love to hear that RIm finally released 1 ghz-ish phone, and a pretty good camera.. finally a small but a capacitve touchscreen is surely will light up the party, even though it maybe not everyone's cup of tea (borrowing gsm arena's phrase :D)

          The 9300 series is for the new Curve models

            This phone (excellent phone in my opinion) had to be released last year, to keep RIM on the top of their game. And I hope BlackBerry Bold Touch 9330 will be able to run Android apps, otherwise it's a meaningless release.

                      It is not 9330.. That belongs to Sprint's BB Curve 9330 3G Smartphone.

                                      There's more to mobiles than Android people.

                                      Go for the Torch 2. The first one is awesome.
