Announced back at CTIA, the BlackBerry 8350i running on iDEN has been a long time coming, what with the 7100i being the last BlackBerry to enjoy push-to-talk functionality. Although it’s packing the usual Curve form factor, it’s apparently got some extra bulk to it. Unfortunately, that doesn’t translate to the levels of ruggedization that are demanded in PTT environments, so hopefully we can see an OtterBox made for this thing soon after it comes out. Look out for the BlackBerry 8350i from Sprint Nextel this December.
