The Blackberry Pearl 9100 has yet to be launched but already there has been a lot of buzz surrounding its eventual release. Many people either in the industry or who follow it, are excited to see how the company follows up with its previous BlackBerry Pearl products. RIM (Research In Motion), the manufacturer and designer of the product line, has recently launched the Bold 9700 and the Storm 2 and seems to be continuously rolling them out. With new products must come some obvious differences, upgrades or downgrades, right? Otherwise why bother? Lets’ take a look at some of the rumored features of the 9100:
By all reported accounts, the Pearl 9100 will have 3G capabilities, a camera with LED flash and an optical trackpad. It won’t use the trackball found in other phones made by RIM. Another rumored upgrade is the phone’s SureType design. The Pearl 9100 came with a QWERTY keyboard. There is some talk that the mobile phone’s battery will be different as well. Hopefully, it will give the phone more juice, enabling it to last longer so that it doesn’t require re-charging as often. Most people dread phones which quickly die out. Not that this has been an issue for the Blackberry series, just a general observation.
As stated above, not much detail is currently available concerning the Blackberry Pearl 9100 because the phone has not yet been released. More will be likely forthcoming as the manufacturer decides to make it available to the public. This might not be too long from now. Until that time, us techies will simply have to scrounge around for information and then report what we can find. From what we have gathered, it looks like the Pearl 9100 will be a good addition to the RIM mobile phone family.
