Telus just released the new Blackberry CURVE 9380 today in Canada!
Other networks should be releasing them soon too
We unlocked quite a few for independent phone stores today and we got a chance to play around with one, It's a really nice little phone and looks like it can be a big hit for RIM.
The Telus release comes just in time for the busy Holiday Season and at only $369 contract free it's an excellent gift idea!
Since the 9380 CURVE is a brand new model, many of you may want to know how to unlock it for use with any network.

You can get your unlock code a number of ways
1) Call your network and request an unlock code, (tell them you're going overseas for a better chance of getting it!) Although Telus usually charges for it, you can give it a shot!
