The BlackBerry Curve 8900 features a titanium-colored finish with chrome highlights. It combines a compact design with a full-QWERTY keyboard, 512MHz processor for fast and responsive performance, and built-in GPS and Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g) connectivity.
The smartphone has a 3.2-megapixel camera with image stabilization, digital zoom, flash and the ability to record video and play video. It also features a music player with a 3.5mm stereo headset jack and headset. Included with a 256MB memory card, consumers can purchase extra memory for the hot-swappable microSD/SDHC slot (with support for memory cards up to 16GB).
The quad-band BlackBerry Curve 8900 supports international roaming. Customers can get unlimited nationwide Wi-Fi calling with T-Mobile's Unlimited HotSpot Calling service.
"The new BlackBerry Curve 8900 features a compact and refined design that looks and feels great," said Mark Guibert, Vice President of Research In Motion. "With rich multimedia capabilities, exceptional mobile email and messaging features, enhanced Web browsing, a premium phone and easy access to social networking communities, including Facebook, Flickr and MySpace, the BlackBerry Curve 8900 helps you make the most of a busy lifestyle that spans well beyond normal business hours."
The new BlackBerry Curve 8900 smartphone from T-Mobile is anticipated to be available in February at T-Mobile stores and online.
I called in T-Mobile and asked them when the Curve 8900 will be available to customers, and they told me that it will be out on February 11th, 2009. The price is TBA at the time of release. But, my guess is that the phone will be at the cost from 149.99-199.99 since the sale of all the other RIM devices from T-Mobile are at the cost of 99.99 after mail-in-rebate.
