Totally forgot to post this yesterday. Orange UK contacted us to let to let everyone know that they will be the first carrier in the UK to launch prepaid BlackBerry smartphones. They showed on the Orange site a while back as coming soon and now its official. Orange will be launching the BlackBerry Pearl 8120 (yes, Wi-Fi) in Indigo Blue or Titanium. The price is will be £145 which works out to just under $210 USD and monthly service for BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) will only cost you £5 ($7 USD).

“With nearly two thirds of UK mobile customers now using pay as you go , we are really pleased to be bringing one of the most popular email and multimedia devices to the masses as the first operator to offer BlackBerry on pay as you go in the UK . At Orange, we’ve always been known for innovation and great value, and with the launch of this service, we continue to lead the market – giving UK pay as you go customers the choice they deserve.” – (Press Release)

Anyways you can head over to Orange.co.uk and get more details…

It is rumored that UK cell carrier Orange has dropped the BlackBerry Bold from their lineup due to quailty issues. Apparently there is a internal memo floating around stating that they will not continue to offer RIM’s Bold until RIM has fixed the known issues with it. Maybe they are getting a bouncing 3G signal as well? Cause as you may know AT&T still has not released the device in the United States due to extensive testing…

Looks like Orange is getting ready to launch a hot new color of their BlackBerry Curve 8320. The new color will be "Black Emerald" and will be free with a contract on Orange in the UK. Check the details on the Orange website. Hopefully this baby heads over to T-Mobile in the States and Rogers in Canada…
