When it rains, it pours, and when a CDMA handset from Canadian mobile phone maker Research In Motion emerges into the wild, it usually arrives both at Sprint and Verizon Wireless in the United States. The same seems to apply to BlackBerry Curve 3G 9330 too, which was just spotted on its way to Big Red.

Not too long ago, some reports on this device being headed for wireless carrier Sprint emerged into the wild, and now we learn that Verizon Wireless is also set to pick it up.

Moreover, some info on what the device would sport when made available, as well as on when it might arrive have made it into the wild, courtesy of the guys over at CrackBerry.

The BlackBerry Curve 3G 9330 is expected to become available for purchase over at Big Red sometimes at the end of October, most probably on October 31, it seems.

According to some leaked info, it should be released in two color versions, including Charcoal Gray and Fuchsia.

The info comes from a leaked rebate form, which also unveiled the fact that Verizon might have the new phone available for purchase for around $100 with the said rebate, though things haven't been confirmed as of yet.

For the time being, no info is available on what changes Verizon and RIM might have applied to the device.

RIM pushed the Curve 3G in various markets around the world with the older BlackBerry 5 OS on board, though it announced that an upgrade to BlackBerry 6 OS would arrive in the coming months.

There are great chances that Verizon's device would come with the same platform preloaded on it, with an upgrade set to arrive shortly after launch.

However, we've already seen Big Red delaying handsets so as to have them launched on the market with a new OS flavor on board, and the BlackBerry 6 OS might be included on Curve 3G right from launch day, though nothing is certain at the moment.
