Blackberry Torch 9850/9860 and the New bold

Today was thr global launch of the new Blackberry Torch 9850. Sprint is the one carrier to have both of them.. I have a Curve 9330, but I am switching to the new TORCH with OS 7.0.....does anyone know if the phone is compatible with the TL 09 tech package.

My phone works wonderfully. Contacts transferred almost instantly, music broadcasts through bluetooth without any issue. Call quality was excellent

Ken;

Does the 9930 read 4G, 3G, or HSPDA?
Verizon says the 9930 is 3G
What's up?
Thx,

The 9930 is 3G only for Sprint/Verizon and also offers HSDPA. The 9900 is HSPA+, which is considered enhanced 3G.

Only 313 Contacs

I erase the previous phonebook of the Curve 9330 and paired the torch 9850 fine. But downloading phonebook, it only downloaded 313 of the 414 contacts i have on the phone. The navi screen said, that I can only download 313 tops. Is that correct? Is there a limit on how many phone contacts you can upload to the navi?
