This new Bold handset brings forth a 1.2GHz CPU, a 2.8 inch 640 x 480 pixel touchscreen and 768 MB of RAM. This appealing package also includes BlackBerry 7, that’s in fact BB OS 6.1 rebranded, in order to reach QNX OS faster. This device is capable of OpenGL 3D gaming, fast browser and much more. Supposedly we’ll see it on the market in late August, if not September…

AT&T will probably be teh first carrier in the States, while Sprint and Verizon will get the 9930 version. Canadian carriers might start selling this device even earlier. Will this unit become a hit?
