BlackBerry Curve 8900

BlackBerry Curve 8900, also known as the Javelin, has launched with T-Mobile Germany comes as little surprise given what has been circulating around the blogosphere. But what is a surprise to us, is that T-Mobile will offer a free six-month trial promotion for those who buy the phone and subscribe to or extend a BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) plan that go for as little as €4.95 per month. The promotion will initially be limited until December 31, 2008.

“The trial essentially lowers the total cost of ownership and could help stimulate interest as the BIS monthly add-on may be difficult for consumers in tougher economic times,” Mr. Fan told clients. “However, it’s unclear whether RIM is providing any promotional funds or if their monthly service fees will be impacted, though may already be reflected in guidance.”

The Smartphone has a US$71 price target.
