Brand New Blackberry

Just in case you had any doubt, Verizon has confirmed the upcoming availability of the BlackBerry Tour 9630. The handset is currently available for pre-order and will be available for purchase beginning on July 12. As for pricing, the Tour will be $199 which comes after a $70 instant online discount and along with the standard two year agreement.

Of course, if for some reason you want to get this in your hands as quickly as possible, then a trip to the store on the 12th may be in order. According to the pre-order page, any “pre-order shipments are estimated to begin on Monday July 13.”

Feature-wise, it will be difficult for many to complain as the handset seems to be a solid offering. The Tour 9630 has 3G support, a 2.4-inch 480 x 360 resolution display, a 3.2-megapixel camera with flash, auto-focus and video capture as well as Bluetooth and assisted GPS. Additionally, the handset also ships with a 2GB microSD card for some much needed extra storage.
