BlackBerry Pearl 8120 Out Now From T-Mobile

BlackBerry Pearl 8120 is now available via T-Mobile too (click here for the official web page), after it was first released in the US about a month ago by AT&T, the largest mobile carrier in the country.

The new BlackBerry comes on T-Mobile as an addition to the already existing Pearl, the older 8110 model, currently sold in five color versions: white, black, sapphire, ruby (red) and gold. BlackBerry Pearl 8120 will be available in only one version (for the beginning at least), and that is a grey /silver one.

Since 8120 brings several new and improved features, T-Mobile priced it at $149.99 with a contract agreement for two years – an extra $50 when compared to the previous Pearl model, which can be bought for only $99.99.

BlackBerry Pearl 8120's first features that will surely make T-Mobile's customers happy (well, not all 30 million of them, but only those interested in BlackBerries) is the Wi-Fi connectivity and the access to T-Mobile's HotSpot at Home service. Other than that, the smartphone also brings a 2.0 Megapixel camera with flash and video recording, a 240 x 260 pixels display with 65k colors, SureType QWERTY keypad, quad-band GSM connectivity, myFaves, stereo Bluetooth, Media player, 3.5mm stereo headset jack, email and Instant Messaging, HTML browser, BlackBerry maps, document viewer, USB and microSD card slot – all packed in a case that weighs only 3.2 ounces (91 grams) and measures 4.2 x 2.0 x 0.55 inches (107 x 50 x 14 millimeters).

With the new Pearl 8120, T-Mobile now offers 11 BlackBerry models (including all the color versions available), which is obviously a good thing. With more Berries added to the line-up, T-Mo's slogan might easily be changed from "stick together" into "BlackBerry together". Sounds better.
