It’s not like no one saw this coming, RIM did put the BlackBerry Bold Touch up on its website before pulling it down shortly thereafter, after all. However, the inevitable has now passed at the BlackBerry World 2011 event, and RIM has officially announced the BlackBerry Bold Touch 9900 (aka Dakota) and 9930 (aka Montana) smartphones.

  • 8GB internal storage, expandable via microSD card slots
  • QWERTY Keyboard, Optical Trackpad
