Sprint Nextel reportedly plans to sell Research in Motion’s BlackBerry Bold 9930 smartphone for $249.99 with a new two-year contract. That’s according to Boy Genius Report, which says it has obtained a Sprint flier revealing pricing for several devices. 

Sprint also reportedly plans to sell the BlackBerry Torch 9850 for $149.99 with a contract.

The BlackBerry Bold 9930 and Torch 9850 are based on RIM’s BlackBerry’s 7 Operating System and part of the Canadian company’s largest global launch in its history.

The flier also lists a price of $99.99 for the Samsung Conquer 4G.

That’s consistent with Sprint’s announcement last week that it would sell the handset for $99.99 with a new two-year service agreement or eligible upgrade and after a $50 mail-in rebate through an American Express Prepaid Reward Card. The Samsung Conquer 4G is Sprint’s 25 4G-capable device.

Sprint, the third-largest U.S. wireless provider with 32.9 million postpaid subscribers, offers 4G services in 71 markets in 28 states.
