Looks like it’s time for a fresh set of rumors
. BG heard from two independent sources that T-Mobile USA will be launching the 3G version of the Curve 8900 (rumored to be the Driftwood/Onyx, photo above via CrackBerry) around September of this year.
Right now whether it’s either the Driftwood or Onyx is still unclear. Here is a recap of this device’s features:
- AWS 1700MHz + 2100MHz UMTS/HSDPA
- 3.2 megapixel autofocus camera
- GPS
- Wi-Fi
- QWERTY keyboard
- Optical trackpad
- 480×360 screen
- Carbon fiber-esque back battery cover (the whole back is a carbon fiber pattern apparently)
According to BG, this device will be “Much sexier than the BlackBerry 8900.” If that’s true I might need to get myself one since I swear by my Curve 8900…
No official word on pricing but the rumor is that it will be around $199 with a new 2 year agreement.
