Other operators get to sell the device, which squarely looks to compete against the iPhone, months later. T-Mobile, Sprint and Verizon customers won't be able to get one until September. Strangely, T-Mobile will offer the device for $50 more than the competition. Maybe there will be some hot contract options with it. And have you noticed that RIM seems to be changing its marketing strategy to compete with the iPhone? This weekend sported lots of BlackBerry television commercials, some in conjunction with Best Buy, while the company recently took a page from Apple to hold a BlackBerry developer conference [2].
