BlackBerry Bold 9790
Just announced in Jakarta, the BlackBerry Bold 9790 has a narrow QWERTY keyboard form factor, similar to the Bold 9700/9780. RIM calls it an evolution of the Bold form factor, which has also included wide QWERTY smartphones such as the recent 9900. The 2.45-inch LCD touch screen has a resolution of only 480x360 pixels (HVGA), which is rather low by the standards of midrange smartphones these days. Carlo Chiarello, RIM's handheld product management senior vice president, has assured us that it has the "right balance of resolution and LCD quality," resulting in good "blacks and contrast levels."

Beautiful phones. I like em!
Time for RIM to throw in the towel. If they want to retain any relevance, they really need to port the BES 'client' piece to iOS, Android, and WinMo. They should also work with the carriers to take the BES penalty out of the data plans so that you can pick any data plan you wish and still be able to pick up business email. Plus, if they can make it so that only the BES data is wiped when the admin nukes a device, it will make it easier for employees to switch companies without having to back up their device before they move on.
@dferguson75@... You clearly do not know what you are talking about. BES Express is completely free. Only huge enterprises pay the for the full blown BES. BES already has the ability to delete only company data leaving personal stuff untouched.
By the way you will see BES on other OSes soon.
Check your facts before you post! Cheers.
