Blackberry Thunder Pics Leaked

An anonymous source has passed along images of the Blackberry Thunder to blackberrysync, showing off its new OS and media player for the very first time.

This source, which has already sparked controversy on other sites such as Engadget over the authenticity of the images, posted shots of the BlackBerry 9500 and its massive 360x480 touch-screen glass-display apparently running OS 4.7.

The INQUIRER recently spent some time with the soon-to-be-released Bold handset and can confirm that the new OS version 4.6 does look very similar to the one featured in accompanying photos.

The phone is said to be Blueberries take on the Iphone and really being its first ever consumer, consumer mobile they’ve kicked into touch. There are even talks of it rocking up with access to a music store akin to the iPhoney iTunes offering, for users to purchase tracks for the device.

We did ask Raspberry at the weekend if content portals are in the works and they just responded with "talks are underway".

Seeing as they were most unusually prominently featured at the O2 Wireless Festival in London of late and touting the music and media abilities of their handsets, we’re guessing the tie-ins will be announced sooner rather than later.

Expect it to have a lightening take up; it’s always good to see someone taking to they-who-shall-not-be-named and their already UK sold-out Iphonies.
