Bell becomes the first carrier with CDMA BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8230
Canadian carrier Bell has announced the availability of the BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8230, becoming the first carrier to offer a CDMA version of the Pearl Flip 8220. The handset is loaded with features including TV, GPS, radio and the Sure-Type keyboard, all running on EV-DO. To try to get you to commit to three years, the phone is only $29.95 if you sign a contract for that term. A two year contract will allow you to purchase the Pearl Flip 8230 for $349.95 while a one year deal will cost $449.95. The smartphone can be purchased off contract for $499.95.  The Pearl Flip 8230 is available in black or pink.

CAN$29.95 for 3 years, eh? At today's exchange rate that makes it US$23.58. VZW will probably make it $199.99 for a 2 year contract to start though.
