RIM’s BlackBerry 10 Launch

Research In Motion’s BlackBerry 10 launch event is about to begin and we expect the Canadian company to also unveil two new smartphones powered by its new platform, the Z10 and the N10.

So, we’re certain that RIM will put the BlackBerry Z10 on sale immediately after the announcement, but we don’t have any details on N10’s release.

Quite a slew of operators around the world have already confirmed that they will carry one or more BlackBerry 10 devices, and some authorized retailers let it slip that they would sell the Z10 starting later today.

Specifically, prices for Vodafone in Spain have appeared just ahead of the official unveil for the BlackBerry Z10, and the carrier will offer the new device in white and black. As far as pricing goes, 149 Euros seems to be the average price for a subsidized BlackBerry Z10, with another plan that sells it for 179 Euros.

Of course, this is after signing a two-year contract, so you’ll want to be sure that you want to stick with the Z10 for the long haul if you want to get a low price on the new device

RIM’s new flagship BlackBerry smartphone, the Z10, is expected to come with a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory.

The device is also said to sport a 4.2-inch capacitive touchscreen display that supports HD (768 x 1280 pixels) resolution, as well as an enhanced 8-megapixel rear camera with autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording.
