BlackBerry Curve 9350, 9360 and 9370: 3 things you should know �Inside BlackBerry - The Official BlackBerry Blog
BlackBerry 9350/9360/9370 Unbelievably fast. Unmistakably BlackBerry.
RIM Introduces New BlackBerry Curve Smartphones

• BlackBerry 9370 (CDMA + Quadband GSM) I'm guessing heading to Verizon and Sprint w/ Global Capabilities.
• BlackBerry 9360 (GSM/HSPA) AT&T, Rogers, T-Mobile, Orange, O2, etc.
• BlackBerry 9350 (CDMA only) Perhaps used for pre-paid/smaller networks like MetroPCS, Boost, etc.

I was wondering what the 9370 was! I guess just a world phone for VZW and Sprint.

That makes sense

Time for the thread to move from the upcoming/Rumored section :-)

Its here...finally!. Now waiting for some reviews...any idea about the price of 9360?

[SaMaster14]

Definitely will be priced lower than the Torch 9850/60 and the Bold 99XX.

As for reviews, I think there are some out there. Some have gotten their hands on them.

Phone looks extremely sleek, but does look a little cheap, especially with that glossy plastic back!

Its here...finally!. Now waiting for some reviews...any idea about the price of 9360?

Normally I would say $99 on a 2 year contract. But now that the Torch 9810 is $50 on AT&T I would guess $30.

[Curvy_8320]

And without contract?

Cover I guess can be changed. But I hope its not as glossy as 8520.

[BB.David]

Curve is usually around $300 (at least in the U.S.) with no contract.

[Wretch 12]

@BB.David: The new Curve will probably cost a little more after release, because of the timing.

Availability
The BlackBerry Curve 9350, 9360 and 9370 smartphones are expected to be available from carriers in Canada this month and from other carriers around the world beginning in September. Availability dates and pricing for specific devices from specific carriers will be announced in conjunction with RIM’s partners.

Yay.

Some portions from a review just done by cnet.co.uk:

That trackpad is pretty decent -- it felt responsive and smooth in our brief hands-on. But for more ambitious manoeuvres like cruising around a webpage on the phone's browser, you might find its abilities are limited.


Around the back there's a 5-megapixel camera with flash, and on the inside there's an 800MHz processor, which isn't as nippy as the 1GHz chip you'll find inside other recent BlackBerry phones. Surfing through menus wasn't noticeably slower in our hands-on, but it might be that some games and apps don't run as smoothly on the 9360.


But there's not much here to tempt Android fans to switch, as Google's operating system offers a better app selection and touchscreens too. Stay tuned for the full review -- we're expecting the Curve 9360 to come out in September.

Everyone was saying 1.2 Ghz processor....but it has 800Mhz....(:

Nobody was saying 1.2Ghz processor, it was always going to be 800Mhz in the Curves.

With no touchscreen and 480x360 resolution, that would have been a massive overkill.

The Bold 9790 should have a 1.2Ghz processor though.

Sprint is killing it this year with all the new blackberry phones. I am honestly surprised to see sprint announce every new blackberry before other us carriers.
