So today crackberry.com posted an IDC study that showed the top ten selling cellular phones from April 1, 2009 until June 30, 2009.

It turns out the top 6 phones are either Apple or Blackberry phones, but the big surprise is that the number one spot went to the Blackberry Curve

10.HTC Touch Diamond
9. HTC Touch Pro
8. Palm Pre
7. T-Mobile G1
6. BlackBerry Storm
5. BlackBerry Bold
4. Apple iPhone 3G (8GB and 16GB versions)
3. BlackBerry Pearl (81xx series but not the Pearl Flip)
2. Apple iPhone 3GS (both 16GB and 32GB versions)
1. BlackBerry Curve (83xx series and 8900)

This week we figured we’d back about the new Blackberry 8900 also known as the the Curve.  It’s not been released yet but after the disappointment that the Storm left people are really looking forward to the new curve.  The older curve (8300) was a big success and was actually one of the most popular.  To this day we at puremobile.ca have that as a top seller.

Now about the Blackberry 8900 Curve.  The one thing lacking is 3G, but it does have a fast EDGE and Wi-Fi.  It looks like a smaller version of the Bold 9000 but since it hasn’t been released (except in certain European markets) no one has actually really had any hands on with the phone yet. 

It does come with the newer operating system that is similar to the Blackberry Bold 9000.  So it’s a very clean fast interface that should prove to be quite reliable.

In the end as we said it’s still not officially released.  There is hopes that it will be out by Christmas but no one is sure of a North American release.  It has come out in Germany but the truth is they use a different keyboard layout so it’s not even worth trying to get it unlocked.

For now all we can do is wait.  As soon as www.puremobile.ca gets one we’ll post a full review.
