So this doesn’t look to be the hoax that was the rumor that Telus was launching the CDMA Curve. Via Boy Genius Report, which I trust in these matters, Sprint is eyeing an April 16th release for the Curve 8330. This is the release through Brightpoint, and will be available through “all other channels” (by that, I guess they mean distributors) on April 20th, which is strange, since it’s a Sunday (don’t ask how I know that off the top of my head).
The Sprint version is a bit different than the one we caught a picture of. As you can see below, this one has black keys. The one we saw more resembles the one Telus plans to offer — you know, the one that’s not a hoax.
Also, it appears that Sprint’s Curve will get a heavy memory upgrade, up to 80 megabytes. No, it’s still not a ton, but you’ll be able to play around with more applications that way.

Hmm the memory upgrade my be a little bit over exaggerated as well…CDMA radios require more memory to function then GSM radios, so that will have to be taken under consideration
