| BlackBerry Pearl 8120 Think of it as "Pearl 2.0". The new Pearl is small, super-light and sexy just like the original Pearl. The 8120, available on AT&T and T-Mobile adds several tweaks and improvements including WiFi, an easily accessible microSD card that's compatible with SDHC cards, a 2 megapixel camera that takes video and still shots, improved text prediction and a better web browser. Like all BlackBerry smartphones, the pearl 8120 does push email with aplomb and it features a SureType keyboard where two letters share a key. It's a quad band world GSM world phone with EDGE for data. The T-Mobile version supports their HotSpot @Home service. | March 2008 |

| BlackBerry Curve 8320 Yes, T-Mobile now has the ever-popular Curve, with a wonderful addition: WiFi. Not just WiFi for web browsing and email but for voice calls over WiFi. T-Mobile's Hotspot@Home service makes its appearance on the 8320 and for $10/month at current pricing, you can make unlimited domestic calls over WiFi without using your plan minutes or using a separate application on the phone-- nice! The BlackBerry 8320 features RIM's easy to use QWERTY keyboard, quad band EDGE, Bluetooth with support for stereo Bluetooth headsets and it has a capable media player for music and video. The 2MP camera takes decent shots but the real stars are excellent voice quality, the usual BlackBerry push email experience and UMA (voice calls over WiFi using your cell number). | Oct. 2007 |

| BlackBerry Curve 8300 As the name suggests, the Curve isn't an angular beast like the 8800. It feels great in the hand, and has a more traditional BlackBerry keyboard with rounded keys that have plenty of separation. The 8300 is available on AT&T in the US, and it features a full QWERTY keyboard, a bright and colorful QVGA display, 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth and the usual push email goodness along with a good web browser. | June 2007 |

| BlackBerry 8830 Now Verizon Wireless customers can take their love affair with push email overseas. The BlackBerry 8830 works on Verizon's CDMA network in the US and in Europe and Asia on GSM networks for both voice and data. Just add Verizon's Global service, insert their SIM and hit the runway. The 8830, looks feels and sounds much like its GSM-only near twin, the BlackBerry 8800. It has a large landscape color display, full QWERTY keyboard, Bluetooth 2.0 and a MicroSD card slot. Like recent hip BBs, the 8830 even has a music and video player, though no camera, so it's corporate-safe. Sprint announced their version of the 8830 will be available in July 2007. | May 2007 |

| BlackBerry 8800 The wide brother to the sexy and successful BlackBerry Pearl sports the same great looks and slim goodness in a wider package that accommodates a full QWERTY keyboard rather than the Pearl's share-a-key design. Like the Pearl it has a vibrant display, newfound multimedia capabilities (it plays music and video), a trackball, Bluetooth and EDGE. The 8800 has an internal GPS and it's a quad band GSM world phone that's currently offered by AT &T (Cingular) in the US. | March 2007 |

| BlackBerry Pearl Want BlackBerry push email but hate the looks and bulk? Well, RIM now offers one of the smallest and sexiest phones on the market: the Pearl 8100. This phone aims to compete feature-wise with MS Smartphone, Palm and Nokia offerings as it brings multimedia to the BlackBerry platform. And it competes with the sleekest of fashion phones in the looks department. The Pearl does email alright, but it also has a 1.3MP camera, MP3 player, video player and more. | Oct. 2006 |

| BlackBerry 7130e Those of you who like the BlackBerry 7100 series more phone-like design will be happy to hear it's now available with 3G speeds on Sprint's EVDO network. The 7130e has RIM's usual excellent push email, Bluetooth, tethering support over USB, a bright color display and the SureType thumb keyboard which combines two letters on a key. | July 2006 |
 |
| BlackBerry 8700g The latest BlackBerry sports a pleasant and more natural color display than the 7290, and is the first to run on an Intel XScale processor which really gives this messaging device a shot in the arm. It has EDGE for fast data connections, the usual excellent BlackBerry thumb keyboard and Bluetooth 2.0 so you need not hold this relatively blocky device to your head when making calls. | June 2006 |
 |
| BlackBerry 7290 The quintessential messaging machine with both PDA and phone features gets Bluetooth and a quad band GSM radio for 2005. The Blackberry has a 240 x 160 color display, integrated thumb keyboard and best of all, you need not hold it to your head to have a conversation thanks to integrated Bluetooth. Both Cingular and T-Mobile offer the 7290 in the US, and it works on all GSM bands used across the world. | Sept. 2005 |
 |
| BlackBerry 7280 The BlackBerry is the epitome of wireless messaging thanks to its rich messaging tools and excellent thumb keyboard. Not only that, current BlackBerry models are also mobile phones that allow you to pay for one plan that covers both voice and data. The 7200 series is available from a variety of US GMS providers, and we take a look at the 7280 which runs on the AT&T Wireless network. The 7200 series features a color display, GSM/GPRS connectivity, push email and PIM applications. A CDMA version is forthcoming. | April 2004 |
