TIM has announced the BlackBerry 8220 for Brazil, but without any pricing or dates, unfortunately. TIM has already released the Pearl Flip in Italy, so it’s only a matter of time before the 8220 reaches satellites in Brazil and Turkey. It was a little curious to see the site previously calling the 8220 the Kickstart (even though I totally love that name over the Pearl Flip), and their store image watermarked with “CONFIDENTIAL”. It sounds like these guys are getting most of their info from us bloggers.
