BlackBerry Pearl 8100 Review
The BlackBerry Pearl 8100 is a much more compact device than the 7130. The BlackBerry 8100 comes in at 107×50x15mm and just 90 grams, compared to the 7130’s 115×56x18mm and 120 grams. But, the Pearl manages to fit in a 1.3 megapixel camera, expandable memory and an MP3 player, making this a much more consumer friendly handset than the business-orientated BlackBerry devices that have gone before.
This is a quad-band GSM phone with GPRS and EDGE with support for BlackBerry push email (for corporates) and standard internet mail protocols (for consumers) many of which can be enhanced by using the BlackBerry Internet Service. There’s also instant messaging support for AOL, MSN, ICQ and Yahoo! clients. North American customers will have access to mapping features too.
With internal memory is 64Mb, but the BlackBerry Pearl expands on this using a microSD slot, which is handy because the enhanced multimedia facilities on the 8100 will use memory up quickly. The Pearl retains the SureType keyboard of the 7100 series, and even comes with a screen with the same resolution of 240×260 pixels (although it’s physically smaller) – the 7100 has one of the best screens around, so expect the BlackBerry Pearl to be equally impressive. The 8100 comes with stereo Bluetooth support. Battery life is somewhat reduced over the larger 7130 though.
BlackBerry Pearl 8100 specification:
Network: GSM 850/900/1800/1900

Screen: 240×260 pixels, 65k colours

BlackBerry purists will probably not like this much – after all, the BlackBerry is primarily a communications device. However, the BlackBerry Pearl 8100 isn’t a replacement for the existing 7100 and 8700 series handsets, it’s a completely new class of BlackBerry aimed at those people who like more toys to play with.
The BlackBerry Pearl 8100 will be released by T-Mobile USA on 12th September 2006, followed by Rogers of Canada in October, presumably with other carriers worldwide following suit.
