Research In Motion is rumored to plan the release of a CDMA version of its Porsche Design P'9981 BlackBerry smartphone that landed on shelves only recently.

Rumor has it that the company might aim at launching the device under the name of Porsche Design P'9531, though it would keep about the same hardware specs as the original.

Porsche Design P'9531 should include a 1.2GHz processor and 8GB of internal memory, along with a microSD memory card slot with support for up to 32GB of additional storage space.

The CDMA flavor of this luxury handset might be launched on shelves at Verizon Wireless in the United States, though Sprint could also receive it.

The original handset is available for over $2,000 and the CDMA flavor should be priced accordingly. However, no official confirmation on the matter has emerged so far.
