Oi, Verizon now has the Curve

Posted by Joe on May 6, 2008 | 6 comments | Filed under : New Developments

Talk about a runaround. After seeing earlier today that we might have to wait until mid-month for the Curve on Sprint and Verizon, we find out once again that we were the victims of misinformation. Of course, Phone Arena pulled a cut and run with their piece (you’ll notice the broken link in the last one), and yeah, I’m just a little pissed off. Why? Because Verizon’s Curve appears to be available (with a tip o’ the hat to Engadget Mobile.

I apologize for the misinformation earlier. Last time I trust that site for any information.

Yep, got mine the other day and it was only $112 (I have a corp discount) but even without the discount it’s about $130 if you: 1. have a renew for 2, 2. are upgrading to a data plan (required) and 3. get the $50 mail in rebate.

I just got mine today! Woo hoo! Was only $219 after rebates, which is an excellent price to begin with. Such a great device, guys. Way better than the 8830 and Pearl.

I just don’t get why all the various blogs feel the need to repeat the ‘news’ from the others. Do all bloggers think we only read one feed? I mean come on, look at EVERY blog regurgitating Boy Genius 9000 and Niagra/Javelin news, and every blog is regurgitating Kevin’s 9000 ‘review’.

Caveat Emptor.
