BlackBerry Tour? Oh yeah. Now that that’s been confirmed, we’re on to bigger and better things — release dates! The latest information we’ve heard is that the BlackBerry Tour is shaping up to be released on Verizon in the month of July. Factor in RIM’s ability to delay space and time and we’d say a mid-to-late July release date is sounding right. Again, it’s not 100% but that’s just the latest information we’ve been told from a trusty source. There have been various rumors floating around about a much later release date, but at this point in time, we’re very confident that July sounds right. Remember we predicted a May release over a year ago, so this really does fit in with that timing. We expect pricing to be $199 with a 2-year agreement, too. What’s a Storm?
