T-Mobile launches BlackBerry Pearl 8220, available nowadays for $149.99

October 13th, 2008 | Category: Cellphones

The BlackBerry Pearl 8220 runs neck-and-neck with the Storm for the title of “most leaked RIM device of 2008,” but for what it’s worth, T-Mobile is just now getting around to announcing a moment and price for the most fliptastic phone in Waterloo’s ever-expanding lineup. That’s good news — but perhaps the best news is that the launch period just happens to be nowadays (for one of the two available

colors, anyhow). The black version of the 8220 will be appearing online and in T-Mobile stores nowadays, while the dark red will be following on a week later on Monday, October 20. Both will run $149.99 on a two-year contract.

Be certain to check out our hands-on impressions — and a dazzling gallery of visuals to go along with them — over on Engadget Mobile!
