We already knew that John Mayer likes curves; he's not with Jessica Simpson for the fish of the sea jokes; but now he's all about the Curve- BlackBerry that is. Blackberry has just announced that they will be sponsoring Mayer's 40 date tour which kicks off June 1st, as a way to promote the new BlackBerry Curve to a younger audience.

Personally, I think this is a strategic mistake; if BlackBerry really wanted to skew younger; wouldn't they be better off sponsoring Teletubbies on Ice?

(Also a Jessica Simpson favorite)

Meanwhile, the BlackBerry Curve remains without an announced release date; though speculation is fixated on late June.
