More evidence of August 5th launch for T-Mobile’s BlackBerry Curve 8520 uncovered
We’re still waiting on official word from T-Mobile but with each passing day, the rumored August 5th launch date gets more plausible. This time around, an alleged leaked T-Mobile document reaffirms the date and rehashes the 8520’s specs. Pricing is noticeably absent from the sheet so for the time being all we have is the Walmart price of $78.88 through October, at which time the price should drop to an incredible $48.88. Of course if you are a really cool kid you’ll have already received a voucher for a free 8520, but then again that voucher did come at a high cost — you had to sit through Transformers 2.
Thanks, Jake!

Quote “If you are a T-Mobile user who loses his/her BB and need a cheaper replacement to hold you over until the next bigger deal comes, then this could be an affordable middle of the road unit.”
EXACTLY.
I saw a 8100 Pearl offered on TMO USA prepaid plan at Best Buy. I don’t like SureType, so I passed on it. If TMO USA offered the BB 8520 for Prepaid service, I would definitely jump on it.
OK. I get it.
