This official Blackberry Price and Release Date from AT&T- you will get this new device for $199.99 after rebates on August 12, 2010. Given the shortage of Blackberry Storm when it was first launched November 2008, do expect the Blackberry Torch 9800 to run out of stock shortly after the release date. The $199.99 Blackberry Torch price is in line with smartphones like iPhone and other Android devices. It’s the first Blackberry with a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard (didn’t Palm introduce this a long time ago with Palm Pre?) I am not quite impressed with all the specs. But for those who want to stick with Blackberry and want a touch screen phone, this is the one for you. Check back on 8/12 for much lower online exclusive price here.
