With T-Mobile set to launch the BlackBerry Curve 8520 on Wednesday, as we have previously reported, the carrier has already added the device to its web site. Listing the phone as "Coming Soon", no pricing data was introduced although it has been known that Wal Mart plans on offering the device for a price of $78.88 on August 5th, dropping it as low as $48.88 after a couple of months. For those of you planning on upgrading to the 8520 from an existing T-Mobile handset, you will have to wait until after 10am Pacific time on Wednesday. And if you're keeping score, the new BlackBerry replaces the Curve 8320 in the lineup of the nation's fourth largest carrier.
