August 15th is a celebration day for our independence & this time its back with a berry on top! Our sources caught hold of the upcoming Blackberry Bold 9900 last night & luckily could snap a picture for us. Supposedly, the RIM‘s beast is going to launch on 15th August in India along with other countries apart USA & Canada. This means our prediction is on track about RIM’s global launching… We hope it really does 😀
As you can see, the device is connected to Airtel 3G network (3G tag confirmed. Appeared few seconds later) running on OS 7.0.0.176. Price-tag is expected between Rs. 27,990 – Rs. 29,990 which can vary until its officially announced. Nevertheless, the launch date is very near!

This beauty is in India, OMG, who’s the Pirate? I doubt you bbin team. ; )
maybe 😉
How much is the cost???
Around Rs. 28,000. Read the post for more details
Can I expect a drop in d price of the bold 9780? It is around 20k right now.
definitely after release
is 9930 both cdma and gsm ?
i think only GSM. CDMA is always left behind by local providers
9900 is gsm and 9930 is cdma
i believe its late August. but arrival of 9900 can prove 15th date
Really hope you are right bro.
BlackBerry Bold 9930 is CDMA enabled
Most sites are predicting a sept 15th release. Most forums give the general notion that blackberry will fail to hit even that. Aug 15th sounds way too early doesn’t it?
actually the phone will release between 15th – 20th august in india (Magnet store is getting the phone on 20th august)
Hope so. The sooner the better 🙂
Its way passes 20th august.. No sign of the release.. When is it releasing?
Its selling successfully over a month
RIM is already late with the new model releases. I just hope they release it on the 15th ….
Read a report on a site that it might release on aug 8th in India. I don’t know if I can post the source here as it is a website
8th seems impossible. Let’s hope or soon 🙂
is the price posted here which is around 27500 to 29000 is correct figure ???? certain website are posting the price around 49k or 45k ???
is it confirm that the release is on 15 th august ??? and will it available across and can we buy it at same day from franchisee owner
is it really worth waiting for phone or shall purchase i phone 4 or blackberry tourch ??? if the pricing is not a problem please suggest.
Well nothing is officially said by now and the pricing you listed shouldn’t be that high for any BlackBerry.
If you go after torch, better is to wait for new BlackBerrys
Well the some sources leaked the price in North America which is higher than expected, so the price in India would be in in range of 32k and 35k
