T-Mobile has announced via its Facebook page that it will begin offering the BlackBerry Curve 3G–also known as the Curve 9300–on September 8 for a very affordable $80 with a new two-year contract.The Curve 9300 is nearly identical to the current 85xx series Curve devices from AT&T and T-Mobile. It has a 2 megapixel camera, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth 2.1, and support for microSD cards up to 32GB. It is smallish, uses an optical trackpad for on-screen navigation, and is the entry-level BlackBerry.
The first key feature of the new 9300 is that it supports 3G for the first time on GSM-based networks. The 85xx series Curves were stuck on 2.5G EDGE for wireless data. The 9300 comes in two 3G radio configurations, 800/850/1900/2100MHz for AT&T and 900/1700/2100MHz for T-Mobile.

This is not the first time that the new Blackberry Bold 9780 has been caught. But now a video of the Bold 9780 running the OS 6.0 with evidence of T-Mobile next phone. The first is are the 3G bands, it will feature Band 4( used by T-Mobile USA). Then when the guy at driphter.com open the only email inside the Inbox, there is an email from T-Mobile welcoming you to T-Mo and thank you for the purchase.

“Some quick observations of this device:
-The 9780 has the exact same form factor and appears to be the same all around hardware of it’s older brother, the 9700.
- WiFi b/g but not n
-The camera does not have the “5MP” stamp next to it that the 9670 has.
-Same screen resolution as the 9700.
-Appears ready to run on GSM networks ( plus UMTS Band I, IV and VIII).
-Cannot tell if the processor is the same as the 9700, but runs smoother on OS6.
-Tough to tell from the pictures because of glare, but has a sharp black bezel around the device giving it a “black out” look.
-Has the same battery as Bold 9700 and Bold 9000
