"Verizon may be giving the BlackBerry Storm2 9550 and the Curve 8530 an End of Life. This seems like a very fast EOL notice considering these devices are less than a year old, so it makes you wonder what�s going on behind the scenes that would lead to this. Both of these devices have updates on the way, with the Curve 9300 acting as a replacement for the 8530 and the Storm2 is getting a refresh for BlackBerry 6. The exact details of the End of Life notices are as follows:
BlackBerry Curve 8530:
The Curve2 is end of life � Final Shipments August
Refer to the �Stock Check� tool in POS for on hand availability
Device will retire on 8/1, replacement coming in Q3/Q4 BlackBerry Storm2 (9550):
The Storm2 is end of life � Final Shipments August
Refer to the �Stock Check� tool in POS for on hand availability
Device will retire on 8/15, replacement coming in Q3/Q4
