Best Look at the BlackBerry Javelin Yet
Posted by Matt Buchanan at 7:40 AM on September 12, 2008
Our last peek at the BlackBerry Javelin—the Boldish phone that'll replace the Curve—was kind of assy, but we've got some fresh and crispy shots that really show off just how cheap and ugly it makes the Curve look. (It's the one on the left, BTW.)

If you like what you see, you've got almost a week left to buy it at the absolute bargain basement price of two grand. [BlackBerry News via Crackberry]

Oh WOW, I'm glad I didn't get a curve then.
I guess waiting a year for a new phone isn't such a bad idea. Stupid Sprint and their shitty RAZR.

It's nice that the screen is larger on the Javelin but that's it.

So the one on the left is the Curve and the one on the right is the Javelin? And which phone is what on the second and third shots?

Don't you listen to the mean bullies my pretty little curve. I like the fact that its smaller and lighter. After caring years of blackberry bricks its a nice change. I can't stand to pick up my girls 8800 series. ewww!!

Lucky for RIM they have a lock on business like MS. It's the only thing saving their butts.

@marc_wtih_a_c: i have an 8830, and it's thinner than the curve! yeah, taller and wider, but that gives it room for a nice screen and comfortable keyboard. and it's thinner!

A Javelin-like device with EVDO Rev. A would be great for Canada.
