BlackBerry bold 9900 just hit shelves the T-Mobile, but wait just a second before you bolt to run and grab one. Phone from RIM launches for business customers only, until 31 August, after which the rest of us can get our BBM. Of course the BlackBerry are built with the enterprise in mind, so it kind of makes sense that suits will get first dibs. Then again, RIM doesn't have a thriving at the moment, so it's not clear why the phone will not be available for all straight from the get go.

Press release made no mention of pricing, but thanks to document TmoNews leak is detected, we believe that the bold will go for $ 300 for a contract after $ 50 mail-in rebate. Despite the fact that this is the first 4 G BlackBerry device on T-Mobile, we're still not sure that it is appropriate to its price. We have seen a number of phones with better specs run at a lower price, including T-Mobile 8-megapixel camera, myTouch packin' dual-core processor toutin' 4 G slide (which retails for $ 199 with contract).

But BlackBerry loyalists will get everything they here, along with several improvements. Bold 9900 will run at 1.2 GHz single-core processor with the latest version of the platform for RIM BlackBerry OS 7. It will sport a capacitive touch screen 2.8-inch VGA resolution of 640 × 480 pixels, along with 5-megapixel rear camera capable of 720 p video capture. Bold 9900 support GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and Pack 8 GB of internal memory.
