AT&T has just become the first U.S. carrier to make the BlackBerry Z10 available to all consumers, not just business buyers.
This device is the first with BlackBerry 10, a more consumer-friendly operating system than was previously offered by this company.
It can be puchased through AT&T's website now, but only in a black casing. The telecom is charging $200 for the Z10 with a two-year contract. Non-contract pricing is $550.
T-Mobile and Verizon are going to introduce their own versions of this smartphone next week, but Sprint is not.
