BlackBerry Curve 8310 on Rogers WirelessI keep writing about the reasons to blame Canada, and now we have one more reason for doing so. Rogers Wireless just added the new RIM’s baby — GPS receiver equipped BlackBerry Curve 8310 — to its offering and is already selling it for $299.99 CAD with a three-year term agreement after the BlackBerry voice instant rebate on select price plans.

Anyhow, both Canadian business persons and individuals can benefit from the quad-band BlackBerry 8310. The enhanced media capability introduced with the Curve will certainly appeal to both sexes, as well as to both casual and advanced users. Add 2 MP camera, RIM’s standard push-email capability and the full QWERTY keyboard on top of that, and voila… you have a winning device. No 3G, though.
