Confirmed Rogers Reports - New BlackBerrry -
09-02-2005, 09:24 AM
A little birdy that works @ the Rogers Head office in Toronto, mentioned to me the other day, how a mystery box from RIM arrived earlier this week. The mystery box is said to contain a new blackberry.
More to Come.
Apparently its supposed to hit the shelves by the end of september. Shipping to stores is supposed to start mid way though september.

I'm thinking it's just the updated form factor on the 7100.

A short while ago it was $99 to compete with Bell's offering the 7250 for free...don't read into the pricing too much.

Rogers only offers their best price with a three year term. Are you saying they will have it at an even better price with a three year contract?
