New BlackBerrys: Touchscreen BB for AT&T and other upcoming RIM devices

Boy Genius has the scoop on three new RIM devices, which actually may wind up spawning more than three new BlackBerrys.  Huh?  Well, there are three devices with codenames and specs, and then some info on possible new lines/groups of BlackBerrys. 

Specifically:

  • BlackBerry Onyx: AT&T device with QWERTY, WiFi, 480 x 360 display
  • BlackBerry Magnum: AT&T device with similar specs as Onyx but possible touchscreen
  • BlackBerry Diftwood: QWERTY and WiFi with UMA, which could mean T-Mobile

Regarding that possible touchscreen on Magnum, Boy Genius writes, "We?d wager than the BlackBerry Magnum and Driftwood are the same device
just meant for different carriers. Possibly the Driftwood for T-Mobile
let's say, and the Magnum for AT&T (who doesn't offer UMA). Is that
the BlackBerry with touch screen and physical QWERTY? Probably."

Interesting stuff.  And there's more about a possible UMA-compatible Bold for T-Mobile, as well.  Hop on over to BGR for the deets.
