Verizon BlackBerry Storm2 BOGO Sale!

October 12, 2009 by Robb Dunewood 8 Comments

There is still no definitive word on when the Verizon BlackBerry Storm2 will actually be released, however, it looks like there will be a Buy One Get One Free Sale going on when it does.

BlackBerry Rocks has gotten their hands on a Verizon flyer featuring the BlackBerry Storm2 and and a BOGO sale offering the lowest BlackBerry prices ever. I’ve been saying for a while now that if Verizon sales the Storm2 cheap enough and RIM gets the hardware and software right this time around, quite a few of these things will move.

Adding a BOGO on top of that definitely doesn’t hurt…

Verizon BlackBerry Curve Doing Better Than Analysts Predicted

June 18, 2008 by Robb Dunewood Leave a Comment

Even though RIM will soon announce last quarters results, this quarter is turning out to be a pretty good one thanks to strong sales of the Verizon BlackBerry Curve. “RIM should see sales drive RIM’s (RIMM) Q1 net subscriber additions to 2.3 million, ahead of its 2.2 million guidance.

Lehman Brothers analyst Jeff Kvaal says that strong sales from Verizon and expected strong sales from AT&T should drive strong sales in the second half of the year. Kvaal has raised is his fiscal 2009 EPS estimate from $3.61 to $3.85.

Since When Did The Verizon BlackBerry Curve Get a Touchscreen?

May 12, 2008 by Robb Dunewood 5 Comments

Just to be clear and to cut down on confusion up front, the Verizon BlackBerry Curve does not have a touch screen. It just appears that the copywriters over in the Verizon marketing department aren’t aware of this fact.

Credit on this find goes to CrackBerry.com reader Will who found this gem right on Verizon’s site. As I write this post the discrepancy is still live, however, we did a full screen grab after the jump assuming that Verizon will eventually correct their mistake.

Verizon BlackBerry Curve Ships Friday

May 5, 2008 by Robb Dunewood 48 Comments

Although we are hearing numerous rumors that some Verizon subscribers have already ordered their Curve, the Verizon BlackBerry Curve 8330 will officially be available this Friday, May 9th via B2B, over the phone, and on the web. It will be available through all channels a week from today, Monday, May 12th.

That is just in time for the kick off of WES, which is pretty much when we suspected the device to available many, many months ago.

How Big Of A Hit Will Verizon’s BlackBerry Curve Be?

April 24, 2008 by Robb Dunewood 36 Comments

Depending on which rumors your follow, the Verizon BlackBerry Curve 8330 may only be a week or two away. In my opinion, it has been the most eagerly anticipated BlackBerry of all time. Our “How Long Will It Take Verizon To Release The BlackBerry Curve?” post has gone well over the 1000 comment mark and about 20% of all searches on RIMarkable about the Verizon BlackBerry Curve.

Do you think that all this will translate into individual device sales unlike anything that we’ve seen on a particular BlackBerry model before?

Is Sprint BlackBerry Curve Delayed Until May?

April 9, 2008 by Robb Dunewood 59 Comments

I am hearing rumblings that the Sprint BlackBerry Curve has been delayed until May. I have not been able to confirm this, however, I’ve heard it from enough different people that asking the question is probably warranted.

As I’ve said many times before, I just can’t fathom Sprint coming out with the Curve before Verizon. If these rumors are correct, looks like Verizon just may beat Sprint to the punch.

Verizon BlackBerry Curve 8330 Officially Announced

March 31, 2008 by Robb Dunewood 95 Comments

The Verizon BlackBerry Curve Is Officially Here!

CITA Wireless starts up in Las Vegas tomorrow and Verizon was first in line to make one of several pre-show handset announcements.

You’ve got to give it to Verizon on this one. They pretty much kept the release of the BlackBerry Curve 8330 under wraps. Most people thought that it would ~~come out~~ announce before ~~the~~ Sprint ~~version~~, however, only few thought that it would ~~come out~~ be announced in March.

The announcement of the BlackBerry Curve 8330 will, unless RIM announces a BlackBerry with a touch-screen, will dominate the BlackBerry news until WES. I am going to try to hold off until then on getting one of these, hoping that that Verizon will announce it in black. I don’t know, however, if I am going to be able to wait that long.

Verizon BlackBerry Curve 8330 In Black?

March 29, 2008 by Robb Dunewood 32 Comments

I don’t know if I buy the date or even the picture, however, like I said before, I like the BlackBerry Curve 8330 in black and if Verizon offers this color as an option, this is the color I’d go with.

[Thanks TC]

Verizon BlackBerry Curve Picture

March 28, 2008 by Robb Dunewood 20 Comments

OK gang. This is either the first picture of the upcoming Verizon BlackBerry Curve that we’ve seen, or, a pretty decent Photoshop job. I’ll let you decide.

I am on the record, however, for saying that I cannot believe that Sprint, who is rumored to come out with their version of the BlackBerry Curve 8330 around mid April, will get this device before Verizon does. If the Sprint BlackBerry Curve rumors are right, Verizon has about 2 1/2 weeks to squeeze to get something out.

I’d be willing to bet that this is the first of many “leaked” shots of the Verizon BlackBerry Curve 8330 that will hit the blogosphere over the coming days.
