A Lot Of Verizon Subscribers Want A Verizon BlackBerry Curve

by Robb Dunewood on July 18, 2007 · 56 comments

One of the most popular posts here on RIMarkable over the passed few months was one where we asked how long it would take for a Verizon BlackBerry Curve to hit the street. To date that post has 41 comments which is a bit more than the average but nothing out of the ordinary. What is out of the ordinary are the number of people that are searching RIMarkable for Verizon BlackBerry Curve or sending emails asking if I know when it is coming out.

A lot of folks are looking for a Verizon BlackBerry Curve

Verizon BlackBerry Curve is searched for 9 times more often than any other carrier / blackberry model combo here on RIMarkable and I receive on average 20 to 30 emails a day asking if I have any information on when it is coming out. Whats even more telling is that the Google, Yahoo and MSN, are sending thousands of visitors here that are searching for Verizon Blackberry Curve and the device doesn’t even exist (yet) as far as we know.

A Verizon BlackBerry Curve would be a hit

If any of the 16 or so regular RIMarkable readers that aren’t related to me just happen to work in the marketing department at Verizon, you may want to tell someone that a Verizon Blackberry Curve, and probably a Verizon BlackBerry Pearl, would be a huge hit and may even clot some of that 25% of iPhone buyers you are speculated to be hemorrhaging to AT&T.

    after 9 flippin years with Verizon since the day of Airtouch, i think i’ve had enough. Bought the BB8830, found out GPS is disabled, no camera, returned it for the Pearl 8130, nice lil phone but the keyboard is killing me. However i’m getting addicted to the trackball. I’m going to return it and maybe shop around. The BB Curve is perfect but knowing Verizon and their idiotic way of doing thing….probably won’t be out for another year that if they decided to go with the Curve. WTF were they thinking, the 8830 is useless, and no MMS because Verizon says “No camera, NO MMS”. Aggggrhh

    Is it really true that Verizon will start offering the BB Curve March/April 2008?

    Just spoke with Verizon and they told me the Curve was in testing currently and should be released May of 08 but no later than 3rd quarter of 08. Good luck waiting this out. I cant stand the garbage they keep releasing and holding back the Curve.

    I’m very excited to pick up a curve for verizon the day they release it (which I hear May 31st as the date–I’m hoping sooner) It’s so annoying that verizon always gets the really hot phones right when they begin to cool down (remember the razr) cingular/Att gives you the option of the newest hottest phones and you dont have to deal with the stupid upgrade policy; the problem is that Verizon has the best service, i dont think ive ever dropped a call seriously and my phone works in almost every basement–this is will always be more important than how stylish my phone is. They’ve got us inbetween a rock and a hard place. Best Service but Worst Phones
