Looks like our pals down under in Aussie land will have to wait a little while for the new BlackBerry Bold 9700 smartphone as a report over on computer world says the BlackBerry Bold 9700 won’t be hitting Australia until late November.

Although the BlackBerry Bold 9700 is somewhat seen as a replacement for the BlackBerry Bold 9000, it is more of a companion as Research In Motion managing director, Adele Beachley has said “We are not trying to replace the 9000 – it is still selling well. We are providing a choice in the market.”

Quick spec reminder…6.2cm light-sensing display, full QWERTY keyboard, touch sensitive trackpad, 3.2 megapixel camera with auto-focus and flash, GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, 3.5mm jack, and microSD expansion.
