I've been hearing late Q1/early Q2 on VZW's Curve from my sources since September. Someone confirmed over on HoFo that VZW/RIM will announce the Curve in March and release it in April. Straight out of a RIM rep's mouth at a VZW "08 Kickoff" (I used to work for VZW on the corporate end and know for a fact that reps from all the companies like to run their mouths at the yearly "Kickoffs").

Well, Sprint won't have it before Verizon. Looks like the Sprint customers are going to have to wait until May, as someone said earlier.

orel850, You say Sprint won't have the Curve before Verizon and that customers will have to wait until May. I'd like to know who or what is your source since you didn't mention that it was only your opinion.

Correct, it is my opinion and my opinion is based on history. Let's take the last four (and only 4) Blackberries offered by Sprint and compare Sprint's Release date to Verizon.

7130e V=11/21/05 S=5/31/06
8703 V= 9/17 S=10/1
8130 V= 11/8/07 S=11/23
8830 V= 5/14 S=7/1

So based on history alone, I believe Verizon will get the Curve before Sprint.

Who cares if one gets it a few days before the other? Just release it already. We've been waiting patiently.

I doubt the curve will be here for Sprint the last week in January as it hasn't been announced like the 8130 and the 8830 before. Those were announced a month or two before they were released. Plus no reports or spy photos from the gadget blogs yet. Would love the Curve but I'm lovin my red Pearl.

Wow! Way to back up your assumptions with facts. Nice!

A Sprint rep told me yesterday that the Curve would not be available until the end of 2008, if at all. Now, I don't believe this for a second, but thought I would pass it along.

Hey Evrybody,
I was into a Telus Dealer 5 days ago and was told in no uncertain terms that this person had been speaking to someone at RIM (and I am in Kitchener-Waterloo, home to RIM) and that they had said that they were developing a CDMA Curve that would be out inside 4 months. They were speaking to the RIM person in December. That coincides with the Q1 2008 thang. They also said it would be the Premo Curve yet... updated and polished?!?!? Nothing official, just retail rumor, but sounded pretty second hand true.....


Ex-Palm, GonnaBe BB-ite... searching for the right plan...

The Pearl is just a small Curve. I think you will love it! Camera and video Recorder is great for a phone device.

I am giving in too. Getting the Pearl next week when Sprint gives me the full upgrade price.
