When carrier promotional materials start showing up for upcoming BlackBerry devices it is usually a telltale sign that the launch of the device is just around the corner. That being said, promotional materials for the Rogers BlackBerry Curve 8520 have started to show up in Rogers retail outlets.

Normally, a wireless company advertising a BlackBerry that they are going to carry isn’t a big deal. Rogers, on the other hand, advertising the BlackBerry Pearl 8220, formerly known as the BlackBerry KickStart, isn’t exactly par for course as I can’t recall a time when a wireless carrier started to advertise a BlackBerry before RIM officially announces it.
Rumor has it that even though you are seeing Rogers BlackBerry Pearl 8220 advertising now, the device won’t be available until October 4th. I think it is probably safe to assume that RIM will announce it between now and then.

Word on the street is that the Rogers will will launch the BlackBerry Bold up in Canada on July 15th. BlackBerry Cool reader RogersDude69 is reporting that Rogers is holding a series of BlackBerry Launch Events for business executives.
One could presume that this launch will be for a device that actually has been announced so we believe that it is a pretty good bet that the it will be the BlackBerry Bold.

Research in Motion and Rogers today introduced that Wi-Fi enabled BlackBerry Pearl 8120 to customers in Canada. The 8120’s Wi-Fi capability will allow it to work with Rogers UMA service, Rogers Home Calling Zone.
More and more households are dropping their landlines and using their mobile devices 100% of the time. Being able to make calls via your internet connection can really cut down on your mobile bill especially for those who make a lot of calls during the day during peak hours.
Rogers Wireless is proud to add the BlackBerry Pearl 8120 to our extensive lineup of BlackBerry phones, and especially to our innovative Home Calling Zone service, a Canadian first,” said John Boynton, SVP and Chief Marketing Officer, Rogers Wireless. “With the UMA-enabled BlackBerry Pearl 8120, not only will our customers have the benefits of RIM’s world-renowned push email solution, they can also experience the flexibility and convenience using their BlackBerry phone for both home and away, with Rogers Home Calling Zone.

Rogers is now offering the Red BlackBerry Pearl available for $249.99 with a 3-year contract for BlackBerry users that want a little flare in their device. There really wasn’t any big announcement about the Red BlackBerry Pearl, from RIM or from Rogers. It just kind of came out quietly in the night.
I wish that Verizon would do something like this. Just have BlackBerry Pearl, be it red, white, black, grey, two-toned, just show up on their web page with a price.
