BlackBerry fans we have one more interesting handset to show you, the BlackBerry Curve 3G, which is heading to T-Mobile. Starting with September 8 you will be able to purchase it for just a measly $79.99 when bundling it with a new 2-year contract.

The phone is not a major revamp of an old popular device so don't expect extraordinary features just yet. The device offers you a 2.4-inch display, 320 x 240 resolution, 2-megapixel camera, optical trackpad, pre-installed 2GB microSD card, 3G support, BlackBerry OS 5 on board and BlackBerry OS 6 upgrade in the works.

Even though the BlackBerry Curve 9300 has not been made official by RIM yet, Rogers is apparently very interested in selling it. A few days ago we told you this new RIM phone is going to be available with a new student plan and now we have a few more details for you.

It looks like Rogers will offer you the Curve 9300 for $79.99 as long as you're willing to sign a new 3-year agreement. The smartphone comes with a 3-megapixel camera on board, dual-band UMTS/HSPA support, 2.8-inch QVGA display, regular full QWERTY keyboard and BlackBerry OS inside.

Rogers is getting ready to promote a new $40 Student plan, and, among the phones that are going to get it we find two upcoming hot devices, the Motorola Flipout and the BlackBerry Curve 9300.

While the Flipout has already been announced the Curve 3G is yet to be made public, but it's clearly the star of the ad above. Other hot phones are also available, the Xperia X10 from Sony Ericsson being the most impressive Android choice from the handset in the promo image above.

Verizon seems to be on a roll lately! After the Motorola Droid X, the new Android smartphone of the company, the carrier will launch the Droid 2 at some point in August and, later down the road, the BlackBerry Storm 3 and BlackBerry Curve 3.

We don't have all the official details just yet but it looks like the Storm 3 and Curve 3 are getting ready to be launched at some point this winter, probably just before the holidays. We're definitely going to get an official announcement by then as RIM also has to unveil a couple of other BlackBerry handsets rumored to arrive in the following months.

The BlackBerry Pearl 3G has been just made official at WES 2010 and, while some carriers out there are anxiously waiting to sell the phone to its subscribers, it looks like T-Mobile USA is not that interested in offering the smartphone to U.S. customers.

T-Mobile did sell the original Pearl and it's weird to hear the carrier isn't willing to pick up the 3G version of this popular phone. T-Mobile is rumored to skip the Pearl in favor of a Curve 3G handset that should arrive at some point in the future.

In case you own a BlackBerry Pearl or Curve smartphone and you're one of T-Mobile's customers then you might be interested to hear that the carrier has decided to replace damaged trackballs for free. The promotion applies to BlackBerry Pearl 8100 and 8120 and the Curve 8320.

Starting with February 15 you will be able to get a new trackball and replace the one that's giving you a headache. The best way of removing those problems for good is replacing the trackball with a trackpad. Unfortunately for your wallet in order to do that you'll have to switch from your old Pearl or Curve to a newer BlackBerry smartphone.

That's right, ladies and gentlemen, T-Mobile is ready to offer you cheaper, but still very hot, BlackBerry smartphones. RIM's flagship phone, the BlackBery Bold 9700, alongside the Curve 8520 are going to be available for just $129.99 and $79.99, respectively.

The move comes as a surprise response to AT&T's and Verizon's new cheaper data and voice plans. T-Mobile is definitely interested in keeping its loyal subjects close and with prices like these I'm sure that customers will be thrilled to hear the news.

It looks like we were right about that BlackBerry Curve 8910 which we showed you yesterday. The smartphone does exist and it will arrive in various Asian and European markets soon. In fact we even have the picture to prove it although you won't be able to see that many details about the 8900 successor.

The smartphone is going to offer you a touchpad instead of the regular trackball, 256MB of RAM, a 624MHz processor, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, WiFi support and a 3.2 megapixel camera. Unfortunately there's no 3G support to be found and I'm afraid that EDGE is simply not going to be enough for such a phone.

A new BlackBerry smartphone has been spotted in the wild. Well it wasn't actually in the wild yet but it was waiting for a Bluetooth SIG certification. Judging by the special number one could simply say that the Curve 8910 is a Curve 8900 successor.

Is that true? Will the Curve2 be launched in the near future? Where will it arrive first? We'd like to be able to tell you that already but we don't have any official source for those answers.

You have just a few days left to purchase the final Christmas gifts. One of them could be the BlackBerry Curve 8530 which is now available in Sprint stores. The smartphone was announced back in November and it has arrived just in time for the holiday.

The phone will cost just $49.99 after a mail-in rebate and with a new contract. The deal is not bad at all especially if you're considering getting a new Berry at this time of year and wouldn't mind inking a deal with Sprint.
