Verizon and Sprint race to announce BlackBerry Tour availability

(Bertrand V.) After so many rumours and debate going on around the net about what network would get the BlackBerry Tour, Verizon has finally unveiled a teaser page. So, it seems that “the best 3G network” will be launching this little guy very soon, maybe as soon as mid-July.

BUT, seems like Sprint is not staying behind: they also launched a teaser page just minutes after Verizon. It is expected that Sprint will release the BlackBerry Tour

later this summer for $199 after a $150 rebate and a 2-year contract. This was truly a close race for these 2 networks, the announcements literally happened in between minutes of each other.
