Earlier this week, Verizon Wireless kicked off the pre-order period for the BlackBerry Q10 smartphone, announcing plans to start shipping it on June 6, but it seems that the in-store availability of the device will begin a bit later, on June 10.

According to a recent post on n4bb, Verizon’s customers will be able to purchase the mobile phone starting with that day via the carrier’s retail locations, in both Black and White flavors.

The smartphone arrives on shelves with a 3.1-inch touchscreen display, a QWERTY keyboard, a 1.5GHz dual-core processor inside, and 2GB of RAM.

Furthermore, the smartphone features 16GB of internal memory, microSD memory card slot, an 8-megapixel photo snapper on the back, front camera for video calling, and all the features and capabilities that BlackBerry 10 was made official with.
