MetroPCS gets the BlackBerry Curve 8530 – Prepaid Unlimited Talk, Text, & Web

We got the word late last night from one of our readers Rob that MetroPCS is now locked and loaded for the BlackBerry Curve 8530.  Before we only saw the Curve 8330 hit the streets with Metro, but the device had already been well outdated by then.  Even though we have a BlackBerry Curve 9300 on its way, the Curve 8530 is still a good BlackBerry to have as it still rocks OS 5.0, has WiFi, and of course 3G.  After $50 mail-in rebate, you’ll be paying $229.99 for the device.  So how about the plan?  As you know, MetroPCS is a prepaid phone company so the BlackBerry is also.  For $60, you’ll get unlimited talk, text, and web.  Great deal or what?  You can order the device online, or head over to a local MetroPCS store near you as we’re told most stores are carrying them in stock and not all.
