BlackBerry 9700 Caught in the Wild
Much to my un-amazement, my good bud Kevin over at CrackBerry has managed to land the above shot of the upcoming BlackBerry 9700. I say I’m un-amazed, because the guy has the best luck when it comes to spotting new gear… especially when traveling. I seem to recall hearing from him when he was at…
