AT&T has stepped up to the plate and put together a very nice offer for qualified BlackBerry customers. Today I received word that AT&T is offering BlackBerry customers the opportunity to get a new BlackBerry Device for $0 down and the option to get a $100 bill credit for each new qualified device.

Check out the details below and take full advantage of this deal specifically for BlackBerry customers.

AT&T loves Blackberry customers and we welcome them to switch to the nation’s most reliable 4G LTE network, with Mobile Share Value plans that offer amazing value for individuals, families and small businesses. Qualified BlackBerry customers can get a new BlackBerry device from AT&T for $0 down and no annual service contract with AT&T Next, bring their own device, or get a device on a traditional contract. In all of these scenarios, customers may be able to take advantage of the $100 bill credit for each new qualified line of postpaid wireless service added until April 30. Needless to say, it’s never been a better time to switch to AT&T. In addition, we have other very attractive plans for business and government customers using BlackBerry devices.

Well if you would have been reading between the lines, this shouldn’t be that much of a surprise that BlackBerry has decided that it is best not to renew its T-Mobile U.S., Inc. Licensing agreement. This comes of the heels of some bad blood spewing between camps from what most would consider some low down dirty shame marketing done by T-Mobile recently targeting current BlackBerry users via email to trade in their legacy devices for iPhones.

I have to admit that as a T-Mobile customer and BlackBerry user, that email really rubbed me the wrong way and I let T-Mobile know just how I felt about it via Twitter and Facebook. I could get deep into that subject but as time has passed I have learned to let things go as there is no reason to continue fuming about it. [Read more...]

BlackBerry continues to push at Mobile World 2014 in Barcelona. Today BlackBerry unveiled the new BlackBerry Z3, which is the first BlackBerry device built by device maker Foxconn. BlackBerry signed a 5 year deal with Foxconn back in December of 2013 to produce the hardware for some low-end BlackBerry devices.

Code named “Jakarta”, this low cost device is expected to retail for less than $200 and will to be available in April of 2014. The Z3 will make its first release in Indonesia and later roll out in other emerging markets.  Specifically designed for customers in Indonesia, the Z3 will be a 3g device rocking a full 5″ touch screen with the latest BB1o Operating System.
