BlackBerry Aims To Steal iPhone Thunder

BlackBerry is on the offensive this time round, releasing the Bold 9000 recently with the Thunder ready to launch sometime in Q3 this year. This full touch screen Blackberry won’t come with any sliding keypad of sorts, with just four physical keys – Send, End, BlackBerry menu and Back. Apparently, word has it that each purchase will launch as a worldwide lifetime exclusive on both Verizon and Vodafone, being a hybrid device with with CDMA EV-DO Rev. C. This smartphone will have the model number 9500 to go along with it.
