Sprint has never been known to follow convention. While other carriers are milking heavy data users for as much as possible, for example, Sprint is standing strong and maintaining its unlimited data plans for as long as possible. Another example: Sprint announced the BlackBerry Bold 9930 last week, stating that it would charge customers $249.99 on contract for the device. The nation’s No. 3 carrier made the device available on Sunday as promised, but the phone is actually priced lower online than Sprint announced; just $199.99 will score you RIM’s latest flagship smartphone from Sprint’s online shop. Oddly, the same $200 can also land you an old Bold 9650 if you have an aversion to touchscreens and gorgeous hardware. Sprint’s Torch 9850 launched at the promised $149.99, but we can’t imagine opting for it over the Bold 9930 for just $50 more. Interested parties may want to hit the read link quickly in case Sprint has a change of heart.

Thanks, CJ

    that is EXACTLY why i left the android!
    i couldn’t be more than 2 hrs from a charger…
    after charging the 9930 to 100% on sunday and pretty much having it glued to my hands re-learning the os – i still don’t need a recharge (TUESDAY  AM)!
    yeah, wish there were more apps – but, the keyboard and feel are great (and screen)
    good to be back w/RIM – nice device.   would give it a 10 if they had more apps – but a solid 8.5 on my scale!  
    by the way – build quality on this is tremendous – extremely well built feel
