IntoMobile - We caught a glimpse of RIM’s next OS 7 smartphone last week, the BlackBerry Curve 9380, and to add to the pre-release goodness is a fresh video of the live device. OS 7 is running as smooth as ever, and NFC is definitely in there, as seen on the wireless management screen. The BlackBerry 9380 is also put next to the Torch 9850/60, just to see how it compares, and it’s definitely the smaller entry-level phone we’ve come to expect since the CDMA roadmap leak.
GSMA: The BlackBerry Curve 9380 is RIM’s first ever-released Curve with a touchscreen. The Curve lineup is usually an expression of RIM’s understanding for a budget phone and this one supposedly, doesn’t make a difference. It should attract customers with a lower entry price while offering the full BB OS 7 experience.
RIM has decided the world needs to be more touchy-feely, and has released a touchscreen-only version of its BlackBerry Curve 9380.
The new version is almost precisely the same as the soon-to-be-popular Curve 9360, except the keyboard has been ripped out in favour of a 3.2-inch HVGA touchscreen.

Pocket-Lint: Yet more phones emerging from the BlackBerry camp, in what appears to be a veritable river of BlackBerry 7 packing handsets flooding our phone shops. Next up is the Curve 9380, the QWERTY free 'All Touch' version of the 9360.
