Beginning today, February 11th, Research In Motion’s next-generation BlackBerry Curve 8900 from T-Mobile is now available for $199.99 with a two-year contract and data plan after mail-in rebate, the carrier said in a statement.
The 8900 is a significant upgrade from the previous model on T-Mobile, the 8320. While the 8900 still lacks a built-in 3G cellular radio—a flaw that will become more and more important as T-Mobile finally rolls out its 3G data network in more cities—the handset gets just about everything else right.
The handset includes a GPS radio, UMA Wi-Fi calling for T-Mobile’s Unlimited Hotspot service, a 3.2-megapixel camera with auto-focus, and a beautiful, high-resolution LCD screen. There’s also a faster 512 MHz processor inside (compared with 312 MHz for all the old Curves and Pearls) to handle the increased resolution and other new features.
