A new and very different BlackBerry is on the way; one which discards the classic view of a business executive typing out emails and announcements.
RIM now brings you, the BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220.
The Flip uses SureType technology to create the typical BlackBerry style keyboard. Instead of 26 buttons, the Flip assigns multiple letters to each key, similar to that of the Pearl. The keypad also has row dividers, such as the ones used in the Bold, in order to make typing more accurate. A predictive spelling checker also ensures you’re not typing gibberish.
The Flip can also download email messages and connect to instant messaging services. It comes equipped with a 2-megapixel camera and can also play music and videos. It includes a 256MB microSD card, but can be upgraded to 16GB. An external microphone and speaker allow you to make phone calls without opening the phone. Last but not least, the device has RIM’s classic scroll ball.
The phone will be offered by T-Mobile this fall; however a price has yet to be released.
I really like the look of this new BlackBerry; however, the Bold still has my heart.
