Verizon BlackBerry Pearl 8130 Selling for $20 After Rebate
IntoMobile - Cell Phone News, Information, and Analysis —
... Rediculous. A solid device at a you-can’t-pass-this-up price… In my opinion.
The Verizon BlackBerry Pearl 8130 is available in Pink and Silver (one for the ladies, one for the men), and as long as you don’t mind penning your signature for a 2-year deal, $20 is all you need to ‘get your pearl on’. Not bad.
