Like our Best Buy ninjas in blue didn’t out this one already… Oh well. It’s always nice to see some more color choices on T-Mobile, though. We were getting pretty darn tired of the gold and titanium Curves. The phone will be available starting today at all T-Mobile retail stores and over the phone for $149.99 with a 2-year agreement. We’re waiting to hear back from T-Mobile to get confirmation of the OS, but we’re betting it’s going to run 4.2.2 even though our leaked doc says any BlackBerry launches before September will run 4.5. Here’s the full spec rundown in case any of you were MIA for the past year:

  • GSM, GPRS, EDGE, Wi-Fi
  • Quad-band world phone 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
  • 2.5” display, 320×240 pixels, QVGA display with more than 65,000 colors
  • 3.5 mm headset jack
  • Dimensions: 4.2 x 2.4 x 0.6 inches; 3.9 ounces
  • microSD slot supporting up to 4 GB of optional removable memory
  • 2 megapixel camera
  • T-Mobile myFaves-enabled
  • Stereo Bluetooth® capability

The BlackBerry Curve 8320 in Sunset is enabled for Unlimited HotSpot Calling from T-Mobile (previously called T-Mobile HotSpot @Home) offering great mobile coverage and unlimited calling over any accessible Wi-Fi network and at all T-Mobile HotSpot locations across the country. When leaving home or a T-Mobile HotSpot, calls are seamlessly transferred onto T-Mobile’s wireless network, and the same is true for transferring calls from T-Mobile’s network onto Wi-Fi.

The BlackBerry Curve 8320 in Sunset includes a 2 megapixel camera, music and video multimedia player, a microSD expandable memory slot that supports up to 4GB of memory and stereo Bluetooth® as well as HTML Web browsing at Wi-Fi speeds, personal and corporate email and built-in spell check.

It will be available at select T-Mobile retail stores and online at http://www.t-mobile.com for $149.99 with a two-year service agreement.
