Two of our corporate Verizon buddies are giving us heads up about the BlackBerry Tour 2 aka Bold 9650 official launch date.  There is no specific date set yet, but of course we all know it’s not going to be first quarter anymore (obviously).  Our sources suggest that it will be coming sometime during second quarter (the middle most likely) with no launch date and confirmation in regard to the new name change to the Bold 9650.  Personally, I hope this gets scrapped and they just keep a Tour to avoid all confusion.  We already have an alleged Bold 9700a slider with touch screen, so to add another  device to the Bold family is just way too much for us humans to bare.

Keep in mind these are all rumors we are passing on to you folks as they have to us the same way.  As we get closer to launch dates, we’ll have more information.
