TELUS BlackBerry Style dummy devices arrive, launch imminent
The upcoming TELUS BlackBerry “Style” 9670 dummy devices have started to arrive at retail locations across Canada… so the launch is coming up soon. No confirmed date from TELUS but Bell is releasing this on November 23rd. As for pricing we’ve been informed it’ll come in at the outright price of $399.99. Specs of this debatable stylish new CDMA flip phone from RIM have it with the new BlackBerry 6 OS, a full QWERTY keyboard, 5 megapixel camera with auto-focus and LED flash, trackpad, microUSB port, Bluetooth and WiFi.
More soon!
(Thanks tipster!)

This phone looks wonderful, the fact that its a flip smartphone with a qwerty keyboard makes it wonderful. The only disadvantage is that its CDMA and not HSPA

I played around with this phone at a Bell store about two weeks ago. Its a bit larger than I had expected. It also looks much better in person than it does in the pictures. The keyboard and screen are about the same size as my 9700, and the keyboard is more 9700-ish than the stubbier 9800.
If you’re looking for a flip BlackBerry, the style would be a good choice.

I really don’t see why people think it’s ugly. It’s BB usual style but a flip phone.
I guess some people don’t like BB style in general, but is it ugly just because you think you’re cool saying that or is there something about the style you don’t actually like? Cause I see nothing wrong with it, aside from it being a Blackberry.

I was looking forward to this device. I like the flip format and the full keyboard. I miss the reliability of the Blackberry OS. I’m about done with the whole “touch” craze. Gimme a phone that works and has a decent browser. But CDMA? Damn.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: this phone will be more successful than people on this site think. I think it will appeal to 2 groups of people that have very little in common: girly girls, who will love the round shape and roomy layout, and guys who love flip phones for all their advantages (i.e. you can’t scratch the screen in your pocket, they’re a little more sturdy, you can’t pocket dial people, etc.). It’s certainly not a phone to give gadget-lovers a hard-on, which is why it gets slagged on this site, but I think it’ll do reasonably well, and doubly so simply because it’s the only phone of its kind.

This phone obviously wasn’t designed to appeal to you. Let it go. There are other people that will be perfectly happy with this phone.

This was in my local newspaper last week thanks to the local Telus retailer ad on the front page. It says that 3 year contract price is $79.99 and no contract price is $399.99.

Honestly I thought it was FUGLY as hell until I saw it in person. It definitely isn’t for me but I can see it working for some people.
