It looks like someone over on the Sprint.com home page messed up. Here is a screen grab from Sprint.com where they are talking about the BlackBerry 7130e and the BlackBerry 8703e. You can clearly see that there is an antenna on the 8703e, however, there shouldn’t be. At least not that we know of…

One of the readers over at BlackBerry Cool while looking through the software downloads on the BlackBerry website discovered an option to download software for the BlackBerry 8703e under the Software Download for Telus Mobility section of the site.
Even though there has been no official announcement this can only mean that Telus will carry the BlackBerry 8703e eventually. The only question is when?

The BlackBerry 7130e from Sprint is now available on their site. The Sprint BlackBerry 8703e is pretty much the same as the Verizion version although this one includes GPS and Verizon doesn’t. It will also set you back a hunderd bucks more than the Verizon model as it costs $349.99 after a $150 instant rebate.

After the release of the BlackBerry 8703e on Verizon this passed Sunday we knew that the first CDMA BlackBerry 8700 series device on Sprint would be soon to follow.
Well, it looks like it followed a little closer than we might have imagined. The Sprint BlackBerry 8703e will be released on October 1st.
One of the things that I like about the Sprint BlackBerry 8703e is that it includes integrated GPS on Sprints PCS Network. You can also use the 8703e as a high-speed broadband modem for you laptop with average download rates of 400-700kpbs and up to 2Mbps peak speeds. This is more than fast enough to play a game of World of WarCraft while your flight is delayed at the airport.

The BlackBerry 8703e from Verizon is available for sale today, however, we aren’t quite sure how much the device actually costs. According to the screen shot, the 8703e cost $349 with a $100 online rebate with a two year plan, however, costs $399 with a one year plan.
If you read the previous post, you are probably asking yourself, “Didn’t he just say that?”, and you would be correct. I am just saying it again because Verizon will eventually correct their website so the screen shot on this post will help explain it a bit better.
