What Carrier Will Offer The BlackBerry 8820 First?

July 18, 2007 by Robb Dunewood 5 Comments

It seems like there was a lot of speculation before the BlackBerry 8820 was officially announced that it would debut in the United States on T-Mobile. There were rumors floating around yesterday before the announcement about T-Mobile pulling the BlackBerry 8800 from their upgrade program readying themselves for the 8820. Now, however, that the BlackBerry 8820 has been officially announced, it’s not clear which carrier will get the first BlackBerry with Wi-Fi First.

AT&T may have the inside track on the BlackBerry 8820

Even though RIM hasn’t announced a carrier for the 8820, Squawk Box reported that AT&T would carry the device later this summer. That isn’t to say that T-Mobile won’t carry the device, but, we rarely see the same BlackBerry device launched on more than one carrier at a time here in the U.S.

I personally am not a big AT&T fan, but, you’ve got to give them their due. AT&T usually gets the newest BlackBerrys first.

    Seems to me that the press release is fairly clear that it will be AT&T first, as they’re the only carrier mentioned specifically.

    The BlackBerry 8820 will be available from select wireless carriers around the world in the coming weeks. AT&T is scheduled to launch the BlackBerry 8820 in the U.S. later this summer.

    Now that the BlackBerry has WiFi they will need to completely overhaul the BlackBerry web browser because of just how bad of a web browser it is will be exposed when people try to use it.

    I am not so bothered by the fact that the browser in my 8800 is a piece of crap because it is so slow and I rarely use it. I probably would use it if I had WiFi though.
