BlackBerry Curve 3G Coming to Sprint in October

Starting October 10, customers will be able to purchase the BlackBerry Curve 9330 3G, the second newest BlackBerry model after the Blackberry Touch, from Sprint at a price of $49.99 (after a $100 mail-in rebate) with a two-year contract.

The phone features a 2.0 MP camera, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, Visual Voicemail and a 2GB SD Card, and will be available in two colors, Graphite Gray and Royal Purple.

Along with BlackBerry’s own App World program, Facebook, Flicker, and Myspace, users of the Sprint BlackBerry Curve 3G will also be able to enjoy a variety of entertainment programs offered exclusively by Sprint, such as the online-streaming Sprint TV and Sprint Music.

Sprint will offer a free upgrade to BlackBerry 6, a new BlackBerry operating system when it is released next year. 

The Sprint BlackBerry requires using the $69.99 Everything Data plan, which includes unlimited web, texting and calling within America.
