I notice on the press shots that the EV icon has changed to say 3G...is this a sign of things to come for Verizon phones or is Nokia just changing things up? 3G seems to be the universal term so going from EV to 3G wouldn't be much of a stretch.
BB 9530 working fine here in South Wyoming.
Looks like we'll be waiting a while for an Apple device on Verizon if it's LTE at least out in the boonies where I live... I guess I'll have to give AT&T a try when they take over Alltel here.
It won't let me reply for some reason so to Carlos...

Verizon's 8830s have chrome on the sides, I'd imagine that is what you are seeing...

That is the holster that comes in the box with the Verizon Wireless Blackberry 8830...just an FYI.
Verizon does own 1700Mhz spectrum licenses just so everyone is on the same page. See http://www.phonescoop.com/articles/article.php?a=99 if you want a more in depth look at the AWS (1700Mhz) holdings.
Blackberry Storm (9530)
Wait...I thought this had already been decided ages ago...and the new standard is micro-usb???? Seems to me every manufacturer is using this except Samsung (who insists on using different ports for every model of phone...at least on Verizon...).
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
