I have T-Mobile with a year left on my contract. I went to an AT&T store to buy a phone to have it unlocked but they wouldn't let me buy it without a contract. Take pity on me bbleaks! @justberg

Happy 1st Anniversary To Bbleaks,
Bbleaks has down an amaizing job for all the blackberry users such as myself. I am pleased to see the difference bbleaks they keep posting up for customers. I have been a tester of the leaks and i always enjoy having it on my phone. Many people are and would be afraid of leaks but i always say its always good to try something new..and always make sure i back up my file!! I gave my blackberry storm to my brother and got a bold 2 3G but my mother wants it as her bday is coming up!!so if i ever win this i will reward it to her because giving was always my thing. a person that always reaches never gets..
I wish i win this contest and my twitter name is

I've been anticipating this phone since it was first leaked months ago. I've been married to tmobile for 12 years, and they say I'm in a 2 year contract until April 2011. I know for a fact that I opted for the 1 year contract in 2009 because the 8900 was only $50 cheaper if I agreed to a two year contract. I would rather just go to At&t so that I could use their 3G network, but since I have never experienced any 3G as of yet, I won't know what I'm missing. That's why I would be a perfect candidate for an unlocked 9800. ;-)
This is awesome. I hope I win.
Whoops! Happy Bday BBLeaks
@mrbucci
Bet you'd just love to send that Torch to Ireland!
Happy 1st Birthday and keep up the great work ;)

@mangcool
Happy birthday BBLeaks! Surely one place to find latest "leak information" about BlackBerry
@amirk
Happy Anniversary guys.
Very cool giveaway. If I could flat out afford this Device I would just buy it. Plus I never enter contests either. I am grateful for all the wonderful products Developers share with us. You may know me. You may not. BBLeaks is a wonderful page and friend to ours. Please pick someone who deserves this device and will get it the proper treatment, putting only the Best fuel (read: products) in it. ;)

Happy Birthday...
I'm one of the storm 2 users, disappointed to find I'm not going to get OS6... I bought my storm 2 unlocked, so it'd going to be a while until I can afford an upgrade of any sort. Also, I'll be honest, I'm not a big twitter user - but hey, maybe you'll get me into it...?
@17colela
I would love to make my friends green with envy. I would love to win this device.

ChMHolloway loves, loves, loves the Torch and really wants to have it!!!!!
am I the only one who can't find ANYTHING about a Mondo_vixen ?
what's his twitter, facebook etc.. ? he doesnt exist !! even google doesn't know a Mondo_vixen....
Great chance that a college of bbleaks is the proud owner of this new shiny hot blackberry torch..
Well, kinda sad news
i havent been able to either and i even asked bbleaks about it on twitter and got nothing... but its messed up that they won its like winning the lotto and never buying a ticket granted it would be awesome but not gunna happen and shouldnt cuz the rules say to post and follow on twiiter and FB
Mondo_vixen....bbleaks, you are a criminal
not criminal under all technicality he could have just handed it to his friend with no contest but instead it became shady and he did a contest and had to pull a name that doesnt seem to exist i think ill stick with crackberry even though there are well over 11k + ppl that are there to enter the contests against me at least its done fair there
true, crackberry it is lol :p
I will never recomend this website again, BBleaks this is not fair I really believed in your contest
same here, bbleaks.. what a butt site.
