Yeah, definitely wait if that's the case. If the Boost "tradition" continues, there should be a price drop on the 8530 pretty soon...that should be the cue for when the new one comes.So Boost may be getting the Curve 3G? Already? I may just have to refrain from buying that 8530 I was gonna buy next month and see what comes out from this. Just for Clarification is the 9330 EVDO 0 or A? I've seen reports of both. either way, once OS6 hits this device with the new Browser, I may just fall in love with both Boost AND RIM all over again...
Boost intro'd the 8330 in January 2010, then the 8530 in October 2010...they move through the BBs pretty rapidly
It would only be logical for the 9330 to be next...probably with OS6 since Boost loaded OS5 on the 8530 at launch.
Unfortunately, the 9330 is still Rev-0

so what's the difference between the 8530 and the 9330 besides the name "3g"?yeah, definitely wait if that's the case. If the boost "tradition" continues, there should be a price drop on the 8530 pretty soon...that should be the cue for when the new one comes.

They are both rev-0 so i really don't see the difference.

Well... the 9330 has threaded SMS, and the 8530 has predictive texting.
The 9330 has 325mb memory, while the 8530 has 256mb.

lol, I'm sure he drinks beer, but I'm sure he drinks scotch or wiskey more.
Call him up and ask.
I have a blue tooth
and the expensive stuff too... and im sure he has a few cubans in that picture too
Why yes, that is a bag phone
Yeah that will probably be the way they will go. What will be interesting though is Virgin doesn't have this same plan limitation. Can put the Optimus on the $25 plan. Will they implement a data cap on Virgins phone plans before the Boost android launches? otherwise it could wind up hindering sales of a Boost Android device unless it turns out to be way better then Optimus V.
The reason I say that is I can picture a Virgin display right next to a Boost one at retail outlets like Best Buy, Target, etc with a budget minded consumer(prepaids main target) trying to decide between a Optimus V and a similar Boost Android device.
Of course if your someone that still wants/needs unlimited minutes it wouldn't mater. Both brands could be priced at $60 month for that.
Still I don't exactly see them flying off the shelves like the Optimus V is right now

The 8530 has threaded SMS too. I even had threaded text on my 8330 after I put OS5 on it.

so what would be the purpose of boost releasing the 9330 after having the similar 8530?
Why not just jump to something like the 9630 or 9650?

true nothing is yet set in Stone, but the fact that a another new Blackberry is on the way is nice enough. I sort of figured it would be the tour or an older Bold though, since Boost normally makes phones available close to the EOL of their Sprint counterpart. Either would be nice though.
according to the Blackberry website, the 3G has 512 mb of memory. only the GSM version has less memory.

Quite simply, in my opinion: Cost. Curves just cost less to make and for the end consumer. They use less data because they can only connect to the internet so fast.
On Sprint's site right now, a Curve 3G is $350 outright ($50 subsidized), a 9650 is $450 outright ($200 subsidized). And holy crap...they have refurb'd Tours again...but not at $80 like last time, $30
The Boost 8530 MSRP's at $200...street price is $170-ish on ebay. The Tour is going to be 2 years old in like 6 months. I'd love to have a Tour or Bold on the $60 BB plan
I've got more phones than fingers
He's not @ Sprint anymore.

This is the Sprint exec. in charge of the Prepaid Group among other things...

Here's the prepaid team (SPG) that works for him...

Operating without a contract makes you far more valuable.
Where's the dialtone?
What I heard was a bb flip and bb touch the 3rd quarter of this year....and either the inuendo or zio very shortly

The 9670 (Style) is yet $50 more than the 9330 (Curve)...plausible, but I'd bet on Curve soon, Style later (late fall?). Touch...over a year away if at all, judging by Sprint BB vs Boost BB launches in the past.
Innuendo is confirmed by dt
