A member of the BlackBerry Nation close to Sprint has sent us the pricing for the nascent BlackBerry Curve 8350i. The BlackBerry Curve 8350i is RIM’s first iDEN BlackBerry in recent memory, and comes with Wi-Fi and push-to-talk capability. Our friend tells us that the soon to be released BlackBerry will be priced at $479.99 straight up and $249.99 with a 2 year contract BEFORE a $100 mail-in rebate, leaving you with a dirt-cheap $150 iDEN BlackBerry when all is said and done.
The pricing hasn’t been placed on Sprint’s 8350i sign up page yet, but we’d expect more ‘official’ release information soon.
Thanks for the tip, Mike!
My good friend at sprint corp says Dec 1st but Available Online.
Opps sorry Available Online Only
I’m trying to figure out why Sprint has dropped the ball on this one. They’ve been hyping the device since 9-11-08…but NO RELEASE DATE and NO PRICING until now???
How are they gonna sell it when they tell everyone its coming out on 5 different dates…then they push the damn thing back until FRIGGIN DECEMBER???
National Accounts rep reports that release date is now pushed back to 12/15.
Sigh….
Tims correct, December 15th is the new date.
ugh! this is making me sick! my 7100i has been down for a couple weekd since it died in a car accident! i am PRAYING this release is ACTUALLY 12/15
phoneless=lost in the world!!
=D
Does anyone have a real release date? If so I hope that they made a shhh load of them…. I cant wait anymore….
Is the date really 12/15?
Great news guys, it’s official:
