If you’ve been dying to get your hands on the BlackBerry Style 9670 but didn’t want to sign a long-term contract to get your hands on the flip-form BlackBerry, you’ll be happy to know that the device will be coming to Boost Mobile July 20 for $199.99.

That’s not a bad price when you consider that you don’t have to sign a long-term contract. The BlackBerry Style 9670 comes with a flip-form factor, 5-megapixel camera, a large full QWERTY keyboard, WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth and it will be running BlackBerry OS 6.

“Boost Mobile has partnered with RIM to offer a great solution for wireless customers who want style, efficiency and value,” said Andre Smith, vice president, Boost Mobile, in a prepared statement. “The BlackBerry Style offers all three when combined with the incredible savings of Boost’s unlimited no-contract plan”

We were big fans of the BlackBerry Style 9670, as Simon wrote in our official review:

I would recommend the Style 9670 to anyone who wants a high-end BlackBerry, minus the stuffy stigma. The external display and big keyboard offer some very practical bonuses, and the unusual QWERTY/clamshell form factor will appeal to a small but dedicated niche of mobile users.
