Unannounced smartphone caught in the wild
With a proven track record of coming across smartphones before they are launched, Vietnamese website tinhte.vn latest delivery is the yet to be officially announced BlackBerry Curve (Apollo).
Seems the phone’s broken out of a manufacturing plant and into their hands for a photo and video session.
Although the voice over explaining what is going on is in Vietnamese rather than English, that doesn’t mean we can ogle as the thin smartphone that still sports a QWERTY keyboard, but as expected, adds a touchscreen display like the new announced Bold 9900.
As with the company’s Bold handset, the new look Curve, or Apollo as it is going by, looks to be worth an upgrade for current Curve owners and comes with a 480x360 pixel resolution touchscreen and an 800Mhz Marvell Tavor CPU MG-1 processor. There’s also a 5 megapixel camera around back, although judging by the pictures the phone is still running BlackBerry OS 6 rather than BB7.
RIM has yet to officially announce the launch of the Apollo or Curve as it is likely to be know as, however rumours have been circling, as well as snapped pictures of the Apollo, for the last couple of months.
Following the launch of an update for the Bold at BlackBerry World in Florida earlier in the month, we would expect RIM to announce the launch of this phone in the next couple of months if not sooner.?
