Report: BlackBerry 10 devices dropped from T-Mobile USA stores

Report: BlackBerry 10 devices dropped from T-Mobile USA stores Although unconfirmed, it appears that T-Mobile USA will be dropping BlackBerry 10 devices from stores.
The carrier won't be dropping the devices completely, just moving to 'direct ship', meaning they will not carry the devices and just serve as an intermediary for consumers to purchase through.

One employee, posting to the popular Crackberry forums, added this: "My manager told me the other day that all blackberry 10 devices will now be only available via direct ship. I work at a corporate store in Cleveland I have to go check the Email but I'm not sure if this has just affected NorthEast Ohio."

Other reps from other states have made similar claims, but T-Mobile USA has not confirmed the news yet.

The news is just another in a long string of bad headlines for the dying smartphone maker.
