Sprint BlackBerry 8330 Curve Officially Released!
 

The long wait is over for the Sprint user's:

New price $179.99
Requires 2-yr Agreement

Nextel - Define Region

Yay!

Is this just a website exclusive right now or will they be in retail stores today also?

now the question is do i switch to the $99 unlimited plan.

right now i pay around the same amount but don't have unlimited text, nav included (or unlimited anytime minutes) but i do have phone as modem.

so leaning towards unlimited everything

I imagine it is as great as the Alltel Curve (got it last week), and I highly recommend the upgrade.
The 8830 was nice, but the curve is the best.

Crap you posted like 5 min before me, was with customer before I could press the submit button DAMMIT haha. but yea its out xD

I suggest you do it, unlimited it will be worth it!

I have had the unlimited plan for about a month. The plan is worth it if you have BES and Navigation. It is almost a waste of money to buy most other plans.

Upgrade over the phone
 

I have an account with 10 months left on my contract. The web site would not give me a reasonable upgrade path to the Curve. I telephoned in and got an upgrade option from 8703 to 8330 for $179.00 with a 2 yr contract. I recommend calling in for then device vs. purchase via the Sprint web site.

Just ordered mine..now only if it would get here fast enough!!

i agree.. its a major upgrade form my razr v3c haha.. let me know if u find anything good on the alltel 8830 curve. i got the same one. i jsut ordered an extended battery and a case. soon to be 8gb or high mem card.

I notice the one on the web site is the silver color. Wasn't Sprint releasing a black (or black-ish) device?

Not sure, but yes the model on their web site is titanium as stated.

Yea, same here. Monday will have to do!

CRAP mine shipped but the tracking says it will be here on Tuesday :(

Same here. If my local UPS Customer Service Center was open on Saturdays, I'd be making this post from my new 8330 as it's already there. Guess I'll be calling and telling them to hold at location so I can pick it up myself Monday morning.(y) Yay! for the impatient people!!

Should i upgrade or not from 8830 ? Not sure if it is worth it.

The 8330 is NOT a Worldphone. :?

If you never travel overseas and want the camera and slightly smaller size, go for it!

/BD 8-)

Any actual pictures from someone here?

Since I dont travel overseas, the upgrade was more than worth it from the 8830.
I had to pay full price, but as soon as I got my Curve, I realized it was worth it.
The Curve fits in the hand better, and I do love the camera and video (voice notes is a nice touch too).
Overall hands down better than my 8830.
