It’s the natural progression of CDMA BlackBerry devices in the US (or so it seems) – Verizon and Sprint pick up the device at around the same time, followed by the regional CDMA carriers in the coming months. Thanks to a tip received by BlackBerry Rocks!, the Curve 8530 could be headed to US Cellular on or around December 10th.
Complete rumor at this point, but worth pointing out that it will be RIM’s first trackpad-equipped device on US Cellular. Is it worth waiting for?

After appearing on the website, complete with specs and a stock picture, US Cellular has gotten all official and launched the BlackBerry Tour 9630. With a 2.4-inch display, EVDO Rev. A, and a 3.2-megapixel camera, it can be had for $199.95 after a $70 mail-in rebate and a new two-year agreement. Because the Tour is a data device, US Cellular requires it to be on a $39.99 or higher monthly rate plan, as well as a $24.95 monthly data plan.
Several had asked me (via the tip line and Twitter) when the nation’s sixth largest carrier was going to pick up the popular BlackBerry device. Now that we have an official launch, who’s planning on getting one?
