Rogers promoting BlackBerry Pearl 8220 before release, any announcement

Rogers promoting BlackBerry Pearl 8220 before release, any announcement
Print promotions for the Rogers BlackBerry Pearl 8220 went out this weekend. But wait, RIM and Rogers still haven’t announced the device yet…

Well now, isn’t this a strange bit of news. Remember that Rogers promotional flyer we showed you confirming the BlackBerry Pearl 8220’s priced at $150 CAN? It turns out that this flyer has found its way into newspapers across the country. This, in and of itself, isn’t so unusual until you remember that the BlackBerry 8220, previously known as the BlackBerry KickStart, has never been officially announced or acknowledged by either RIM or Rogers. While upgrades to older models, like the BlackBerry 8820, often don’t receive separate press releases, I can’t remember another time a BlackBerry has been promoted before any RIM employee can officially speak of its existence.

This would lead us to believe that an official announcement for the BlackBerry Pearl 8220 should be coming very soon, either this week at CTIA (maybe during Jim Balsillie’s keynote?), or even sooner. As I write this late Sunday night in foggy San Francisco, Rogers’ BlackBerry page is currently down, which might mean they’re updating it with 8220 info. Regardless, for now we’ll just have to keep a close eye on things and assume someone in Rogers PR didn’t press ‘print’ a little too soon.

United Kingdom and Jamaica next to get the BlackBerry Bold

Jamaica and the United Kingdom now have the BlackBerry Bold. Check out Voda UK’s Bold prices - they’re quite enticing.

blackberrycool.com/wp-content/uploads/vodaukboldprices.jpg” alt=”vodafone uk blackberrybold prices” title=”vodafone uk blackberrybold prices” class=”alignnone size-full wp-image-8438″ />

The list of countries now carrying the BlackBerry Bold continues to grow, as Vodafone UK and Cable and Wireless Jamaica both made announcements on Friday while we were stuck in airport hell (note: never tell U.S. Customs that your name is “Cool. BlackBerry Cool.” They won’t think it’s funny).

While there’s no word yet on BlackBerry Bold pricing for C&W Jamaica, Voda UK has posted their pricing lists and they’ll make you scream “God save the Queen!” Featuring a variety of plans, Vodafone is offering the Bold for anywhere between free and £187, with a special Anytime promotion of £35 a month with a 2 year contract for 600 minutes, unlimited text messaging and 500 MB of data. Definitely something we’re not used to seeing on this side of the pond.
