BlackBerry fans here in the US will be happy to learn that the BlackBerry 9000 aka Bold has just passed through the FCC testing process and received its approval. It has been quite a ride with the Bold dating back to October when we first broke it and even further back to January 2007 when we started telling you about the 90xx series. Now we’re likely just over a month away from a release and the only remaining question is whether or not people are still excited about it. Sure we all already know the specs but a quick highlight recap:
- Quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)
- Tri-band UMTS (850/1900/2100) with HSDPA support
- WiFi
- 480 x 320 pixel display
- New UI including full-HTML browser
- 1500 mAh battery
So there you have it. We’re closer than ever to a release; which by the way should happen on AT&T in mid August according to our sources. We’re almost there people – think it’ll warrant any iPhone-esque lines at AT&T stores?
