Vodafone and Research In Motion (RIM) introduced the BlackBerry 8707v in the Netherlands. The UMTS-enabled BlackBerry 8707v allows customers to make voice calls and simultaneously send or receive emails, browse the Internet or use other applications.


Jeroen Hoencamp, Director of Vodafone's Enterprise Business Unit in the Netherlands comments: „With the BlackBerry 8707v, we introduce the first UMTS-enabled BlackBerry device designed to support a multitude of applications including email, voice, Internet and organizer. This device is designed to meet the needs of even the most demanding users."

The BlackBerry 8707v features 64 MB flash memory and a bright, high-resolution color landscape QVGA (320 x 240) LCD screen which provides ample workspace to view email, web pages, applications and other information. Intelligent light sensing technology automatically optimizes screen and keyboard lighting levels for indoor and outdoor viewing. The BlackBerry 8707v also integrates attachment viewing that includes support for popular text and image file formats such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, WordPerfect, PDF, ASCII, JPEG, GIF, BMP, TIFF and PNG.

The BlackBerry 8707v features an easy-to-use QWERTY keyboard to enable quick and accurate thumb typing and includes dedicated 'send,' 'end,' 'mute' and 'power' keys. A built-in speakerphone enables hands-free conversation and convenient conference calls, and the device can also be connected to a wireless headset or car kit via Bluetooth.
