BlackBerry “Apple Killer” - touchscreen phone codenamed ‘Blackberry Thunder’

May 14th, 2008 · No Comments

Boy Genius has apparently unearthed more juicy tidbits about that rumored BlackBerry touchscreen device. Currently, the model number is the BlackBerry 9500, though it’s very early and that’s likely to change. Word from BG is that the new iPhone-ish handset is now internally codenamed the “Thunder,” and will come to Verizon and Vodafone as an exclusive device. The phone will reportedly have four physical keys (send, end, menu, and back), sport a hybrid CDMA EV-DO Rev. C / GSM HSPA radio, and could come with a 4G version. YES, 4G!!! Bye bye 3G! BGR has included a self-made mockup (below) of what the device may look like, but as of now, no one has laid eyes on this mythical creature.
