BlackBerry 8830 seems to be everyone's favorite, as a large number of mobile phone carriers look for bringing it to their customers. Sprint is one of them, as it will make this smartphone available for all their subscribers as soon as possible.

Verizon already supports BlackBerry 8830 in the US, but this makes it just as good for Sprint to bring to their customers too. The smartphone comes with several appealing features which provide fast and reliable information especially for businesspeople.

The fact that it comes with international voice and data roaming capabilities are some of the most important features which make BlackBerry 8830 be highly appreciated by a large number of people. The handset comes with built-in GPS and OnDemand services. This provides fast and reliable information only at the push of a button.

This smartphone can also be used as a modem, with the help of the included USB cable that can connect to a laptop. Other specifications also include a media player capable of rendering videos, audio podcasts or music files. This phone also proves to be highly convenient for editing text files, as it comes with a full QWERTY keypad and trackball navigation.

"By offering the BlackBerry 8830 with an unlocked SIM capability customers can sign up for competitive international service plans directly from Sprint or take advantage of service from local providers in other countries.", said Danny Bowman, vice president of customer equipment for Sprint. moreover, "Sprint is making the BlackBerry 8830 World Edition smartphone available with flexible, convenient options designed to appeal to international travelers, especially those customers who may have a significant number of employees working internationally", further commented Danny Bowman.

BlackBerry 8830 will be available at Sprint for USD 200 with a two-year service agreement and USD 100 mail-in-rebate and USD 100 instant rebate.
