I see May 4 is now circulating as the date Verizon gets a new Blackberry. I am willing to bet that will be pushed back to the Fall. I just took the 8800 from Cing...I know their footprint and speed stink...but Verizon is missing the boat - at least w/me for another 2 yrs.

May Flowers for the 8830
The 8830 is due through direct shipments on the 14th of May and May 28th in stores. Sprint's version is due out sometime in July and the phone should retail between $199-399. I buy all the PDAs and cell phones for my company, so I have to know this stuff and get info from the carriers themselves.

Quad band GSM?
Will this be a quad band GSM in addition to the CDMA?

I read somewhere that it would be the following:
Dual-band 800/1900 Mhz CDMA2000 1X Ev-DO Networks

Dual-band 900/1800 Mhz GSM/GPRS
