Earlier today we let you know that the BlackBerry 8530 would be hitting Verizon on November 20th and now we have news of the same device hitting Sprint.

There wasn’t an exact release date announced but a Sprint spokesperson said that it will be out relatively soon with EV-DO and WiFI built-it. Of course, since there was no release date announcement there was no price but we have a hunch that it will be right around the $99 that Verizon is charging with a 2-year contract and $100 mail-in rebate.

Earlier this month we let you know that T-Mobile was gearing up to launch a device called the T-Mobile Tap. Additionally, we told you around the same time that they would be carrying the Samsung Behold II. However, at the time, we didnot knwow when these devices would be made available.

Today, Tmonews has come oup with a slide that shows the T-Mobile Tap with a release date of November 11th and the Samsung Behold II with a release day of November 18th.

Are these rumors to be believed? We’ll have to wait for news from T-Mobile to see.

Verizon Wireless has just updated their Twitter feed letting us know that the Palm Pre will be hitting the carrier earlier than we expected.

As you can see from the above screen shot, Verizon expects to have the Palm Pre “early next year”. Exactly when early next year remains a mystery but at least those webOS fiends on Verizon now have something to look forward to.

A few months ago we got our first glimpse of the white BlackBerry Bold but had no idea when we would be able to buy it or for what carrier. Well, it seems like AT&T will be the carrier getting the stylish device on October 18th.

Exactly how much will we be able to buy this for? Most likely right around the black Bold’s $199 price point.

Windows 7 is still about 2 weeks away from hitting store shelves but that hasn’t stopped an unnamed university bookstore from selling it early.

Above is a picture sent to Engadget by a lucky student who was able to pick up Microsoft’s latest operating system ahead of release.

As for the rest of us, we’ll still be stuck waiting until October 22nd.

Rumors have recently surfaced that give us a hint as to when that highly sought after BlackBerry Bold 9700 will be made available for purchase.

Apparently, the above mentioned handset will be hitting T-Mobile on November 11th but until RIM or T-Mobile make an official announcement we will have to mark this one off as a rumor.

If rumors are to be believed, we may be seeing the Palm Pixi hitting Sprint on October 20th, just a few weeks away from today.

News comes to us from BGR who were apparently contacted by an anonymous source who told them that the Pixi would be made available in both Sprint and Best Buy retail locations.

Considering the Palm Pre hasn’t sold as well as Palm had hoped, doe the Pixi stand a chance?

Back in July we told you that RIM was gearing up to launch a Mac OS X version of the BlackBerry Desktop Manager software at some point in the future and here we are still with no software.

It seems that we have evidence to support the rumor that Palm is gearing up to launch their webOS touting Eos sometime next month. According to TechCrunch, Palm will unveil the phone sometime next week in leiu of Fashion Week.

This would somewhat make sense since the Eos is said to feature a low price and sleek design. Either way, we won’t know if this phone even exists (although we do have some proof) until Palm makes an official announcement. We’ll keep you posted.

If recent reports are to be believed we may be seeing Apple’s latest update for their Mac OS X operating system, Snow Leopard, hitting store shelves as early as August 28th.

News comes to us from Macenstein who have gotten their hands on support training documents for Snow Leopard which gives us a hint that the update will be dropping soon. In fact, their sources were quoted to have said that an August 28th launch seems “extremely likely”.

We’ve been hearing about LG’s GD910 watch phone for too long now and yet still haven’t heard of a solid release date or price point. Luckily, Orange UK has recently told us that the watch phone will be priced at  £500 or about $825, on August 27th of this year.

While this may seem like an enormous price tag for such a small device, it’s dramatically less than the ~$1,290 Orange estimated it to cost earlier this month.

Anyone out there eagerly awaiting the GD910’s launch?

Earlier this week we showed you what was supposedly a leaked Zune HD Best Buy display stand that said the device would be hitting store shelves on September 18th of this year. That was only added to the fact that Amazon.com had Zune HD up for pre-order the same day giving us a hint at the device’s price.

Well today, Microsoft soft has come clean and let us know that the Zune HD will in fact be hitting retailers on September 18th in 16GB and 32GB models for $219.99 and $289.99 respectively.

What’s more is, not only has Amazon re-listed the device for pre-order but Microsoft, Best Buy and Walmart have done the same.

Just hours after the Amazon.com listing was pulled which notified us of the Zune HD’s pricing, we bring you a leaked promotional display for the device letting us know that it will in fact be hitting store shelves on September 15th.

The picture comes to us from a Gizmodo tipster, who is reportedly a Best Buy employee, so I think it’s safe to say this one is confirmed.

Yesterday we were informed that the Samsung Solstice A887 was probably on its way to AT&T next month with a price of $99.

Well today the phone was spotted in a banner on Samsung’s AT&T handset directory page, as you can see above.

While it still doesnt’ give us official word on a price or release date I think it is now safe to say that this phone will, in fact, be hitting AT&T at some point in the near future.

Yep, more Apple Tablet rumors, but these ones seem pretty sure of their credibility. The recent slew of rumors has both a release window and price point for us to ponder.

According to Apple Insider, the Apple Tablet will definitly be shipping sometime in 2010 and will be priced somewhere between the iPhone and Macbook. If we’re talking about the highest capacity iPhone 3GS and the plastic Macbook, we’re looking a range of $299 to $999 which is somewhat surprsing considering it is Apple.

Anyways, take this how you will but with all the rumors circulating there has to be some touchscreen toutin’ device that the guys over at Apple have been working on.
