The Push to Talk-enabled BlackBerry Curve 8350i is now available on Telus's Mike network. It’s more or less the same BlackBerry Curve 8350, but now supports iDEN 800Mhz and 900 MHz networks and comes with Push to Talk functionality.
This is certainly a welcome addition to the mobile phone line-up of Mike as the Curve 8350i is definitely one of the more well featured iDEN compatible smartphones out now. The Telus Mike BlackBerry Curve 8350i can be had for $249.99 on a 3-yr plan with a voice and data plan amounting to at least $45/month. While this offer is open to both new and existing subscribers, this is just a limited promo that will expire on March 5, 2009. If you want to sign-up for a shorter term contract, the Curve 8350i is retailing for $449.99 and $549.99 on a two year and single year contract respectively. Ditching all contracts with a new 8350i will cost you $549.99.
