Any developers out there looking to snoop around the upcoming BlackBerry 8220′s operating system can check out OS 4.6.0.141. It’s not that useful to the vast majority of us without Flip Pearls Kickstarts, but it does go to show that save a few potential software tweaks, the device is just about ready to roll. All previous signs were pointing to a September release date on Rogers and T-Mobile, and the CTIA announcement makes it all the more likely.
