BlackBerry 9000 to come in cheaper, 3G-less version

Apparently, RIM is a bit worried that the rumored high price-point for the forthcoming BlackBerry 9000 might be a bit too steep for some, and plans to offer a budget version — sans 3G. According to the Boy Genius, an almost identical model of the next-gen phone will be available without high-speed data, and will have a slightly different bezel and back casing (which he’s gotten a picture of, seen up above) — though we’re not sure why they’d go to the trouble of making a different body when only the guts will change. Clearly it’s one of life’s mysteries we weren’t meant to understand.
