BlackBerry insider and BlackBerry Cool reader, Mike, informs BlackBerry Cool that the BlackBerry 7130e from Verizon is to be officially announced next Monday, November 14th November 21st.

I am a big fan of of the ‘CandyBar’ BlackBerry form factor and love my 7100t howerver my corporate mobile plan is switching to Verizon. The big question that I have is will you be able to use the BlackBerry 7130e as a highspeed wireless modem for your laptop?

I know that ‘Them is fightin words’ for some BlackBerry users so I just wanted to post this early as a public service announcement of sorts for all the die-hard BlackBerry users out there who might be offended by such a comparison. Before your blood boils over, read the article, they are actually complementing the BlackBerry… Sort of…
