BlackBerry fans, or CrackBerry addicts, will be interested in the new, white Bold 9000, if for no other reason than to check out the new color. However, folks looking to upgrade or replace their existing devices might want to wait a few more weeks, when AT&T is expected to announce the brand new BlackBerry Bold 9700, or "Onyx," as it was codenamed.

The Bold 9700 has many of the same features as the 9000, in addition to many new improvements, including additional application memory space and the new BlackBerry handheld OS, v5.0, all packed in a smaller, more sleek form factor.
