What the Flip??


All of you SuperGorge movers and shakers know how important it is to stay ahead of the technology curve. You want the newest and hottest devices that you can get your hands on at all times. Someone told us that "history always repeats itself" and I think it's safe to say that they were right. Like a classic pair of shoes that re-emerge every couple of years or a fashion trend made popular again, flip phones are back in conversations, blogs, and most importantly Sprint stores.

Sprint has made themselves the proud owners of the Blackberry Style 9670 Smartphone as of October 31st, 2010. Although it isn't necessarily the newest phone, it has only recently gained notice from consumers. For those worried about the keyboard, you'll be happy to know that the full QWERTY keyboard and trackpad of the bold and torch series can be found on this model.
Specs and Features:
- Blackberry 6.0 Operating System
-5 Megapixel Camera w/ LED Flash
-Clamshell Flip Form Factor

 Pricing:
-Full Retail Price: $399.99
-Full Discount Price: $99.99 after Rebate
-Mail-in-Rebate: $100.00

 Being new to the Blackberry team I prefer my 9780 Bold model over a flip phone, but if you're nostalgic about the "simpler" times then this phone gives you the best of both worlds. Even some of your favorite fashionistas are giving up their touchscreens and iPhones for this new "oldie but goodie" design, such as one of our favorites Kim Kardashian.


Just like any fashion trend, this phone is only available for a limited time but stay tuned for your next SuperGorge gadget fix!
