Blackberry 8320 Curve for T-Mobile

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

The new T-Mobile Curve is one of the latest and coolest Blackberries around, having the “smoothness” feel to it like other Curve models. The QWERTY keyboard on the 8320 is spacious and is a tad bigger and rounder than the older ones, making it easier to type faster.

Some of the Blackberry 8320 features are: 2 megapixel camera that take clear and color-rich pictures, 3rd party instant messaging support for AIM, Yahoo, and Windows clients, Wi-Fi integration which offers fast download speeds, music player, stereo Bluetooth, 3.5mm headphone jack, and memory card slot.

RIM officially announces Wi-Fi-enabled BlackBerry 8820

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

After getting the green light from the FCC just a couple of weeks ago, Research in Motion today officially took the wraps off the RIM BlackBerry 8820, the company’s first smart phone with integrated Wi-Fi.

Available through AT&T Wireless later this summer, the 8820 supports 802.11a/b/g standards and is compliant with Wi-Fi security protocols, including WEP and WPA. In addition, the BlackBerry 8820 is the company’s thinnest full QWERTY device to date (beat it, BlackBerry Curve), and has built-in GPS for out-of-the-box support for location-based services such as TeleNav GPS Navigator.

Other highlights of this quad-band phone include EDGE support (no 3G, though–boo hiss!) Bluetooth 2.0, and an expansion slot that accepts both microSD and microSDHC memory cards.

Those are just some quick hits. We’re still trying to nail down some more details, such as pricing and exact release date, but wanted to share the good news with you in the meantime. Check back soon for updates.
