A new BlackBerry has bubbled up in RIM’s User Agent Profile listings, the BlackBerry 9300 and 9330 (code-named Kepler and Aries II respectively). The few specs the turn up reveal a lower-grade 320 x 240 display like the 8520/30, but will include Wi-Fi 802.11n, just like the upcoming Talledega. As the model number conventions suggest, the 9300 will be GSM and 9330 will run on CDMA, both 3G.
Generally I don’t give much sway to UAProf documents, since often you’ll find relics of prototype devices there that have either been discontinued or renamed to another model number, but given Kevin managed to dig up the code-names and the UAProf has been added recently (April 6), I’m tempted to believe at very least these handsets are in the works. I’m curious to see the devices themselves, and if they look anything like the 8500-series BlackBerry Curves, which have been doing exceptionally well for RIM in emerging markets.
