The Cell Phone Junkie

BGR Tuesday reported that RIM will be launching new Curves, an HSPA+ PlayBook and two BlackBerry 10 devices over the next year.  Per the report:

• RIM plans to introduce two new Curve smartphones within the next few months: the BlackBerry Curve 9320 and the BlackBerry Curve 9220. The 9220 will be an EDGE smartphone and the Curve 9320 will be an HSPA device.
• While we don’t have confirmation on the size, we have heard that RIM will introduce a new PlayBook tablet with 1.5GHz processor, built-in HSPA+ 42Mbps cellular data support and NFC around May or June.
• RIM’s BlackBerry London is still on track for a September launch.
• There is now another BlackBerry 10 smartphone in the works that will launch as part of RIM’s Bold series. The phone features a touchscreen display and QWERTY keyboard, and it is planned for a December release.
• A QWERTY slider running BlackBerry 10 has been talked about for the first quarter of 2013.

The report says that BlackBerry 7 legacy devices will be launched in emerging and global markets throughout the year, leading up to the first BlackBerry 10 handset later this year.
