RIM Blackberry 8800 - Mobile Phone

RIM has released its latest in the Blackberry family, the Blackberry 8800. Improving on the Pearl, the 8800 features a full QWERTY keyboard, a 320x240 screen, and is slightly thinner. Rounding out the features include the trackball navigation system, GPS /w maps, multimedia, expandable microSD, and voice activated dialing (VAD). All of this is bundled along with the features you've come to expect from a Blackberry: browser, text-messaging, and, of course, mobile phone services.
