It seems that Sprint's exclusivity on the BlackBerry Style 9670 may not be very long, if the above screenshot of a promo flyer is correct. Although, Sprint may have an exclusive deal for national carriers, whereas US Cellular is a regional carrier.



The promo flyer for US Cellular rebates runs from October 1st 2010 through January 13th, 2011. It will be interesting to see how well the Style 9670 sells. Also, the Canadian carrier TELUS has confirmed via Twitter that they too will carry the Style 9670.



Anyone excited for the Style 9670? Will it be a success or a flop?

US Cellular has't even released the Bold 9650 yet, but it looks like they're following Alltel by releasing OS 5.0.0.810 for the 9650. If you haven't already picked up this OS then you might as well. It will be interesting to see if the US Cellular Bold 9650 releases with OS .810.

US Cellular issued a press release today discussing the arrival of the BlackBerry Bold 9650 and their Android line-up. In the section about the Bold 9650 there was a reference to another BlackBerry that they would be releasing later by the end of the year.




The paragraph of the press release reads:

The carrier will release the BlackBerry Bold in early August and later this year it will offer a BlackBerry flip smartphone with a full QWERTY keyboard. U.S. Cellular is also releasing new touch screen devices like the LG Banter Touch featuring a 3-inch touch display and side-sliding QWERTY keyboard.

What could this "flip smartphone with a full QWERTY keyboard" be? Perhaps US Cellular is also going to be getting the Clamshell 9670? It definitely appears to be that way. We've heard this device was going to be a Verizon Wireless exclusive. Could it be releasing soon on Verizon and later on US Cellular?

An image emerged today on HowardForums showing a new mail-in-rebate promotion by US Cellular. To our surprise it shows one of the eligible devices to be the BlackBerry Bold 9650! What is even stranger is the promotion starts April 16th and ends July 15th 2010.



While we doubt the 9650 will be available in two days on US Cellular, it is still interesting that it may be up for an MIR. When do you think the Bold 9650 will release?
