We've known for a while now the BlackBerry Curve 8520 will be coming to Rogers and today we got some more information regarding its official launch time frame. An email went out to some Rogers employees today declaring the Curve 8520 is indeed coming and that all employees were to login to their training systems and get fully trained up on the device itself.

You can expect the Rogers BlackBerry Curve 8520 to launch the first week of October, but of course I'm guessing if you're reading this and on Rogers you're more than likely holding out for the BlackBerry 9700 which should hopefully launch shortly after.

Rogers BlackBerry Curve 8520 Employee Training Started - Launch Early October!
Awesome phone, but holding out for 9700!
Second Commenttt =D
Aside from the storm, If you've owned any of the last 5 blackberry models released, I don't think you need training lol, THEY'RE ALL THE SAME!
The first two nubs are nubs...
No one is really interested in the 8520 anyways at this point, it was looking good until we got the specs...it's a fail at this point.
You do realize minus the screen resolution and camera, it has the same specs as the 8900?
This looks like a great introduction the blackberries and also would be a nice backup phone too.

The phone is already out and available on Vodafone, so this news makes a ton of sense.
I am on telus. I was wondering if there has been any word if telus is getting this phone yet or not. I really like my 8330 so i think it would be great to see what this has to offer. Also any word on the 9700 getting released by telus. thanks for the info.
