Rogers is usually one of the first to get a new device but I guess they have been falling behind recently. They just announced the release of the BlackBerry Curve 8520 in Canada today. This is the low end BlackBerry for most people and looks like it is pretty popular. It also supports Rogers Talkspot which is UMA calling over Wi-Fi.
One of the interesting parts of the press release is the inclusion of a urMusic application provided by Rogers allows you to sideload your music for FREE and discover, browse and download songs from all your favorite artists. urMusic also gives you access to the best Live Nation concerts with Wireless Box Office, a mobile ticketing service where Rogers pays the service charges.
Also of note is that the press release specifically mentions App World which makes me wonder if RIM finally got a carrier to preload it…
Check out the details in the press release but the device has yet to show up on Rogers website.
