Boost Mobile to Offer Blackberry Curve 8330

That's right, you read correctly. Boost Mobile will begin selling the Blackberry Curve 8330 for use with their unlimited prepaid service. A fully functional Blackberry will now cost you just $60 per month! That included REAL Blackberry services such as email and Corporate sync, along with the standard unlimited talk and text.

The Blackberry Curve 8330 is a CDMA phone, so will be 3G capable and will be using the Sprint network rather than the Nextel network, which Boost has been using all along until now. What about Sprint's upcoming introduction to 4G service? No one knows yet, but the Blackberry 8330 is capable of that coverage as well. This means better coverage, as Sprint's coverages are substantially better than Nextel's, faster internet with 3G speeds, and no more dinosaur aged Java programs lagging out your Boost Mobile phone!

The price of the Boost Mobile Blackberry Curve 8330 will be a spendy $249, but the phone will be yours with no strings attached and still no monthly commitment. Since Blackberry Curves are priced between $400-$500 when bought with no contract with other carriers, it seems a no-brainer, as Boost has proven itself to be time and again.

Boost has apparently ended its exclusive contract with Motorola as they will also be coming out with Sanyo and Nokia phones. The Blackberry Curve 8330 will no doubt be the ship Boost Mobile sails into the future with, however. The only downside so far is that the BoostBerry will not have WiFi. Many people have had nothing but heartache with the WiFi features however, so perhaps it will not really be a loss for you either way. It certainly is no loss to this writer, and the 3G speed will be adequate, with 4G coming soon enough!
