New BlackBerry Pearl

Research In Motion just introduced the BlackBerry Pearl, the sleekest BlackBerry yet. Other than being just a phone, the BlackBerry Pearl has a digital camera, multimedia features and wireless e-mail. It’s as perfect for staying in touch with friends and family as it is for a busy day at work. The BlackBerry Pearl is a quad-band GSM/GPRS and EDGE-enabled mobile application phone, featuring the latest generation BlackBerry handset platform. Navigation is instinctive and fast with an easy-to-use trackball, dedicated 'menu' and 'escape' keys, and context-sensitive menus. The screen, trackball and keyboard adjust to changing lighting conditions with an innovative light-sensing technology.

The new BlackBerry Pearl from T-Mobile USA features:

• BlackBerry Internet Service - allows access to up to 10 personal and corporate email accounts, including most popular ISP email accounts
