Blackberry Pearl Flip 8220
RIM’s first clamshell phone, the BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220 which comes in black or red, measures 3.9-inches high by 1.9-inches wide by 0.6-inch deep and weighs 3.5 ounces.
It is a quad-band GSM phone with GPRS and EDGE data plus WiFi connectivity. It features a 65,536-color, 128×160 pixel external display and front-facing 2-megapixel camera, while you get a 65,536-color, 240×320-pixel TFT display on the inside.
Besides, BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220 also includes multimedia player plus of course the messaging and personal information management tools that BlackBerry devices are famous for.
As part of the Pearl series, you get the SureType keyboard (groan) and trackball navigator. The BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220 also comes equipped with a 3.5mm headphone jack and an external microSD expansion slot.
The Pearl Flip 8220 offers true world roaming, a speakerphone, smart dialing, and background-noise cancellation. Wireless options include Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP support.
The Pearl Flip 8220 doesn’t support GPS (perhaps there will be a 8230 in the future that may do), although it does have a mapping application built-in and can talk to a GPS accessory via Bluetooth.
Supported e-mail solutions include BlackBerry Enterprise, Microsoft Exchange, IMB Lotus, Novell GroupWise as well as POP3 and IMAP4 accounts. There’s also an attachment viewer for Word, Excel, PowerPoint files, PDFs, and JPG images.
