Bell is expected to pick up the recently announced BlackBerry Bold 9790 on December 2nd. So far we’ve seen nothing but Canadian carriers picking this device up, which seems to be the trend lately anyway.  A quick recap on the specs, the Bold 9790 is touchscreen with full QWERTY keyboard, has a 2.4 inch display, OS 7, 5MP camera with autofocus, NFC, and more.  There’s no word on pricing that Bell will offer for the new device but details will surface soon as we get closer to the launch date.

The BlackBerry Curve 9380 is already heading to carriers, starting with Bell which has internally noted they are launching it on November 28th.  The Curve 9380 is the first all touchscreen device in the Curve family offering lower end specs than what we currently have, sort of.  It gets an 800MHz processor, OS 7, 480 x 360 screen resolution, and NFC capability which devices such as the Torch lack. There’s no pricing details just yet.  RIM officially announced the Curve 9380 yesterday, so it’s just about right to see carriers announce carrying it anytime now.

The BlackBerry Bold 9900 is making its way to carriers in white color now.  It looks like it’s headed to Bell next, with a November 24th expected launch date according to a leaked memo.  The pricing is expected to be the same as the black version which is $169.95 on a 3 year contract $599.95 outright.

The next device we’ll be seeing quite a bit of leakage for is the BlackBerry Curve 9360.  I really can’t imagine who would go for the device when there’s all these other ones out already including the Bold 9900, Torch 9860, and Torch 9810.  If you’re a keyboard lover, Bold 9900 and Torch 9810 would suffice.  Plus you get touchscreen.  I guess there may very well be an audience out there who just want QWERTY with no touchscreen, or just prefer a smaller device (enter the Bold 9790!).  Any way the Curve 9360 made its leaked appearance on some Bell documentation showing a launch date of August 29th.  Now the pricing for it has leaked.

With US carriers still left behind, another Canadian carrier is providing the BlackBerry Bold 9900 and Torch 9810.  Yesterday Rogers was starting to sell off the Bold 9900 early but is available today as Rogers stated on Twitter.  Bell Mobility has both the BlackBerry Bold 9900 and Torch 9810 available today.  As a quick recap, here’s the pricing for both devices:

• No strings attached: $599.99
• 1 year: $574.99
• 2year: $449.99
• 3 year: $169.99

The BlackBerry Bold 9900 is expected to launch in Canada as early as August 16th.  But Best Buy Canada and Future Shop are showing that the BlackBerry Bold 9900 is available today on their websites.  The Bold 9900 is expected to hit various carriers in Canada, and this one that’s allegedly available today is from Bell.  Last week we saw leaked launch dates for Bell BlackBerry devices which don’t seem to match what we see here.  With that said, it seems to be a typo for launch dates, but both sites have made the same mistake.  Future Shop is suggesting that the device is only available in store and not for online purchases.  I’m sure some will pop their heads in to see if it is available but will only be disappointed when finding out the device is not available just yet.

Yesterday there were leaks for Bell in regards to what BlackBerry devices they were picking up soon.  After RIM’s official announcements this morning, they have come out of the closet officially letting us know that they will be carrying the BlackBerry Bold 9900, Torch 9810, and Torch 9860.  There’s no word on release dates yet, but yesterday we did also see leaked launch dates which could always change.  Alternatively you can sign up to be notified when they’re available.

A couple of hours ago we saw the leaked roadmap for Bell Mobility which included four new BlackBerry devices.  Unfortunately there was no launch dates listed, but now further documentation has been spotted.  It looks like the BlackBerry Bold 9900 and BlackBerry Torch 9810 are set to launch on August 16th according to these new screenshots.  It’s been a great day of surprises seeing that new BlackBerry smartphones are headed our way sooner than expected.

A few days ago, rumors surfaced about new BlackBerry devices coming to Bell.  Here’s an image from what looks to be an internal slideshow for Bell showing four new devices coming: Bold 9900, Torch 9810, Torch 9860, and Curve 9360.  It looks like both Telus and Bell will be carrying all four devices as well.  These devices are all scheduled to launch towards the end of August, according to the rumor.  But for now we know the devices will be available for the carrier.

We already know that Rogers has confirmed the BlackBerry PlayBook.  There’s also Wind Mobile who are still in the works of getting it, but now we see Bell confirming the tablet.  There are no details for a launch date yet, but I’m sure we’ll see more as the PlayBook is set to officially launch within a month.
