BlackBerry Curve 8900

This particular addition to the BlackBerry range has GPS, WiFi, a 3.2 megapixel camera,MP 3 Ringtones and a 2.4 inch 480 x 360 pixel display, the only significant thing that it lacks is 3G.. although this will work on T-Mobile's EDGE network or over a WLAN connection.

As well as a multimedia player, the BlackBerry Curve 8900 has a 3.5mm audio socket and microSD expandable memory, giving it a maximum of 16GB with a compatible SDHC card. The Curve 8900 measures 109 x 60 x 13.5mm and it weighs 112 grams.

The model numbering might be significant - earlier "Curve" handsets were 8300 series devices, and the business-orientated BlackBerry 8800 has a lower model number too. So perhaps all 8000 series BlackBerry devices will now be called "Curve".
