BlackBerry Tour 9630 will be heading to Verizon, Sprint

Although details for both launches are pretty light, we do have some confirmation that both Verizon Wireless and Sprint have plans to launch the BlackBerry Tour 9630.

As for Verizon, this comes with surprisingly few details. Actually the confirmation came in the form of a product teaser page simply announcing the phone. Unfortunately, there was not any mention of a release date or pricing information, but it will allow you to sign up and receive an invitation to pre-order the device when it becomes available.

Sprint, on the other hand, was a little more forthcoming, and I do mean a little more. What we can tell you about the Sprint release is that it will be priced at $199.99, which will be after $50 instant rebate and a $100 mail in rebate. As for availability, expect it later this summer.

As far as the BlackBerry Tour itself — to begin with it will be a 3G capable device. Other features include a 3.2-megapixel camera, a high-resolution 480 x 365 display, microSD/SDHC memory card slot and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
