Doubt it, but you never know

Guys... We better go easy on the rumours of next year... God knows when this new device will be out and what are RIMs intention about it. Maybe it is more of consumer device but still early to talk about. Although I agree that no BES support is a big let down its hard to talk about a device while we are just opening the box of a new one (OS7).
Also, with the OS7 devices out now, this could be RIM trick to get consumers back, if this "Colt"device wont come on BES when first out Im sure a new device would be out soon enough to catch up.
They talk about Q1, maybe march, OS7 would have been out for 6-7 months only by there.
Anyway, hard to speculate over rumours.
