Anyone have a lead on when this is hitting SA?
Voda and MTN shops "cannot comment" on its availability....
 
I recall there being a problem with the trackball in the 1st batch that was manufactured, so we may only see it in the new year.
 
Don't even bother with it. The Bold 2 will be out by year's end and the trackball's have a high rate of failure (I had to wait 6 weeks for mine to be repaired). I'll bet they won't get the Tour at all.
 
what is the model number for the bold 2? do you have a site with the specs?
 
Google it, has everything the Bold has, slightly smaller, double RAM, new trackpad. Don't know about the number. Also the Bold 9700 is expected soon, as Bold 2 but includes a touchscreen in same form factor. Why would anyone want a Tour?

BB positioning the 9700 as the “Bold the size of a Curve,” something easily confirmed by on quick glance at the accompanying spec sheet. Listed as 109mm x 60mm x 14mm, the 9700 shares identical dimensions with the Curve 8900 save for the fact the former is 0.5mm thicker. Standby time is rated at nearly 21 days while talk time clocks in at 5 hours, a far cry better than the current Bold’s 13.5 days of standby and 4.5 hours of talk time despite the fact that both devices operate on the same 1500 mAh battery.
