Rumor: BlackBerry Curve 85xx Coming to T-Mobile in 3G by Quarter 3

We got another leak earlier today indicating that another BlackBerry Curve 85xx series will be coming to T-Mobile.  What’s the big deal this time? It looks like 3G will be implemented as I’m sure T-Mobile wasn’t happy to see Verizon receive the 8530 with 3G.  The device won’t be killed any time soon and is definitely expected to live longer than the BlackBerry Curve 8900.  Q3 seems to be the timeframe for this new BlackBerry Curve to launch, but it will still be in the 85xx series for those thinking about a new Curve model.  This is of course based off of a rumor that has shown to be true to us, but as an online publication, we must give this from us to you as nothing more than a rumor until official details leak out or launch.  So with the Pearl getting 3G, what does the new rumor make this new device called? BlackBerry Curve 3G perhaps?
