The “String of Pearls” will hit T-Mobile on September 4 as the gold, blue, and red versions of the first-generation BlackBerry Pearl.…
BlackBerry Curve 8320 with WiFi set to hit T-Mobile on September 24th
You gotta love the Boy Genius. He’s always good for the inside line on leaked information. The latest BGR nugget is the BlackBerry Curve 8320, with the built-in WiFi radio – trick. Apparently, there’s this leaked T-Mo document that indicates a September 24 launch date for the WiFi-enabled Curve – perhaps alongside that new T-Mobile…
MLB to provide one-click access to MLB.com to BlackBerry users
Until RIM released Pearl and then Curve afterwards, I’ve envisioned BlackBerry owners using their handsets almost exclusively for business purposes. However, after the introduction of more beautiful devices I found BlackBerrys a valid all-day multi-purpose devices, competing head-to-head with other mobile platforms — truth to be said, I remain Symbian OS fan. The Major League…
BlackBerry 8820 coming to Spain
Obviously, Orange is pushing hard to dominate the mobile workforce in Europe. Following UK’s release, the France-based carrier will also introduce the BlackBerry 8820 in Spain in mid-August — i.e. very soon. We’ve already wrote extensively about the BlackBerry 8820, and as a reminder I’ll just add that it’s the first RIM’s device equipped with…
Vodafone to launch BlackBerry Pearl 2 in September?
So, it’s not just AT&T who will get the privilege to carry the successor of the popular Pearl.

At this stage, we don’t have any official word neither from RIM nor from Vodafone,…
BlackBerry 8310 and Pearl 2 coming to AT&T in September
The 8310 (code name Papa Bear) is a Curve with GPS. The Pearl 2 (code name Comet) … we have no clue what is so special about it except the fact that it will come in 8 colors. Makes sense since I saw a lot of non executives toting the pearl, those mainstream users want…

MOTO RAZR 2, MOTO Q9, BlackBerry 8820… AT&T launch dates?

Apparently, AT&T is set to release a bunch of cool devices in the coming months — no the iPhone 2 is not among them. 🙂 First, the carrier will release the new GPS and WiFi enabled BlackBerry…
RIM and Vodafone release BlackBerry Curve 8310 with GPS in Germany
I’ve always liked the Curve‘s look more than the one of the BlackBerry 8800. It’s smaller, more compact and fits the palm much better. Although, the BlackBerry Curve 8310 lacks the integrated WiFi from its bigger brother – 8820, it also brings some location awareness to the table, thanks to the built-in GPS module. And…
