Koodo Mobile Launching the BlackBerry 8530 May 25th?

Over the past little while we’d heard rumblings that Koodo Mobile would be launching the BlackBerry Curve 8530. This was/is cool beans for sure, but until now, any rumors or hints have been far and few between.

Today, thanks to the good folks at Smartphone Nation, we get a look at what appears to be the Curve 8530 in Koodo’s internal systems. Check out the shot above. Clearly the promo price of $999.99 hasn’t been adjusted yet (we’re expecting something around $150 on ‘the tab’), but note the ‘street date’. Looks like it could be live this month, on the 25th.

The BlackBerry Curve 8530 packs a 2MP camera with video, 256MB flash memory, WiFi, GPS, 3G, and Bluetooth among its key features.

Stay tuned for more info as it trickles in.
