I’ve kept the phone far longer than I was supposed to as I simply didn’t want to give it back. I love it even with all the faults of the Blackberry OS, and there are not many. The 9700 is a magnificent device for both the power user and the individual who simply relies on email.

T-Mobile_9700

This is the moment we’ve all been waiting for! The BlackBerry Bold 9700 is finally LIVE on T-Mobile’s website, although it shows the pic of the BlackBerry Curve 8900 (Don’t worry Magenta, we forgive you). Along with 3G capabilities, the 9700 will also come with Visual Voicemail,  all compacted in a sleek and sexy form factor. The 9700 is now available for $199.99 with a 2-year commitment or $449.99 retail. And if that doesn’t fit your budget, you can pick up a brand spankin’ new 9700 for $100 less from Walmart once it’s available. If you are planning to pick one up tomorrow from a retail store, we have a feeling this bad boy will sell like hot cakes, so make sure you’re there before they’re all sold out! Are you going to be up and early in the morning to pick up the 9700? Sound off in the comments!

9700 Arriving At T-Mobile Stores

BB_9700_TmoNews

While the launch is three days away, what is quickly becoming everyone’s favorite Blackberry is arriving in T-Mobile stores.  Let me repeat that, the 9700 availability date is three days away (I’m excited).  If the reports are to be believed, then T-Mobile is preparing for this phone to sell like hot cakes, since the stores are supposed to have a minimum of 25 each (Our sources are saying that the high end will be 36 though).  I can see this thing selling out, so get there when you see fit.  Leave your thoughts in the comments!

We already had  a little inkling the upcoming BlackBerry Bold 9700 would come with a $199.99 2-year commitment price tag. According to the price sheet we’ve leaked above, you can pick up a brand new BlackBerry Bold 9700 for $199.99 of course, with a 2-year commitment.

If you want to sign up with one of T-Mobile’s new Even More Plus plans you can divide the $449.99 retail price into 20 easy payments of  $22.50/month.

The Samsung Behold 2 will also be available for the same $199.99 2-year commitment price tag and the same $449.99 retail price. Once again if you want to sign up with one of T-Mobile’s nifty new Even More Plus plans you can divide the retail price into 20 easy payments of $22.50/month. Did I mention no interest? The Behold 2 is expected to launch on November 18th. How are the prices looking? Too high, or reasonable? Leave your thoughts in the comments! Larger image after the jump!
