Boost Mobile to start carrying BlackBerry Curve 8330

Huge news on the prepaid front this evening, as a source has confirmed to Boy Genius Report that Boost Mobile will be receiving the BlackBerry Curve 8330.  The Curve 8330 will join Boost line on January 13th, and will have a $249 price tag.  Boost Mobile plans will offer unlimited calling, text messaging, and web browsing, and will be $70/monthly for Curve users.

The fact that the BlackBerry Curve 8330 is a CDMA (operating on the “Sprint” MVNO side) device makes it a deal to me, along with the unlimited service for $70.  Why spend $99 monthly on a Sprint Curve 8330, or $149.99 with Verizon and AT&T when you can spend $70 monthly on a Boost Mobile Curve 8330?

What do you think – postpaid or prepaid?  Or better yet, is it worth waiting until a newer BlackBerry lands on the provider?

The offer doesn’t begin until this Saturday at 8 AM (local time), but for those activating a Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, or T-Mobile BlackBerry on a two-year agreement, you may want to consider Walmart as your place of purchase.  In a deal running until November 20th, the nation’s largest retailer is offering a $100 Walmart gift card to anyone who picks up one of the following devices:

  • Verizon Storm
  • Verizon Storm2
  • AT&T Curve 8310
  • AT&T Bold 9000
  • Sprint Curve 8330 (all colors)
  • T-Mobile 8520 (all colors)
  • T-Mobile Pearl 8120 (Emerald)

Of note, the gift card is given at the time of purchase, meaning you don’t have to play the “mail and wait” game.  Sounds like a fair deal to me.  Anyone planning on picking up an early Christmas present this weekend?
