BlackBerry 8900 from Carphone Warehouse
The Carphone Warehouse has just put the new BlackBerry Curve up on their “Coming Soon” site, undoubtedly to the excitement of many. So far, T-Mobile Germany is the only one who has publicly announced the BlackBerry 8900, but considering the Carphone Warehouse works with a bunch of carriers, including T-Mobile, it’s to be expected that they’d be offering this snazzy new device sooner or later. Rumours are also floating around that the 8900 will be lapping up on American shores in early 2009, and we can only presume that T-Mobile will continue to hold the exclusive. It’s a fine upgrade on the existing Curve series, featuring a 3.2 megapixel camera, 480 x 360 display, GPS, and Wi-Fi, but sadly no 3G. No pricing from Carphone Warehouse just yet, but the Curve should be out in December. Still looking for a Christmas present? Sign up over here to get notifications when the shiny new BlackBerry Curve is available.
UPDATE: It sounds like December 20th. will be the availability date for Carphone Warehouse. Woo!
