We’ve known that the BlackBerry KEYone, which features a physical keyboard and Android, would go on sale in the United States (and Canada) beginning May 31 since the end of April.

And that is indeed the case. Beginning today, you can buy the BlackBerry-branded KEYone from either Amazon or Best Buy (or both, if you’re feeling adventurous). In both instances, only the GSM variant is available to start, but the CDMA option should become available at some point later today, hopefully. It will cost you $549.99 to make yours, if you’re so inclined.

The BlackBerry KEYone is a return to roots for the company –even if TCL is technically manufacturing the handset– and for anyone that feels like they might want a physical keyboard back in their life, this is certainly the option to consider. Do you plan on picking one up?
