Lacking 3G in modern smart phones may be seen as a no-no, but there is a large market for mobile phone users who prefer to do bandwidth intensive activities through WiFi access instead of 3G. Considering how often 3G networks get criticized for being slow and congested, it does pay off to just rely on WiFi access.
Another update to
the 8910 is the use of the new BlackBerry Trackpad. While the original Trackball was pretty good, the Trackpad is significantly better. Compared to the analog trackball, the optical trackpad provides a much smoother user input system; the contact and stress free controls will also make it easier on your thumbs.
The 8910 also gets a new spiffy 624 MHz processor. Its fast, compared to the original 512 MHz processor for the old 8900. Judging from the performance of the BlackBerry Bold 9700, the 624 MHz CPU handles the BlackBerry OS quite easily and will deliver smooth visual transition and high refresh rates.
FFC Registration
Early in January this year, Research in Motion filed the registration of the new Curve 8910. The report showed that the Os will be version 5.2.0.25_5.0.0.360. While we all know that the phone would most certainly have Bluetooth, the filing clearly shows that the upcoming device is indeed the Curve 8910.
More About the Curve
The Curve series started out in 2007 with the BlackBerry Curve 8300 line. The original device lacked both 3G and WiFi, making it really hard for people to use –despite the high speed of EDGE networks. The phone got a few upgrades in the form of the 8310, 8320, 8330 and 8350i models (each with new functions such as GPS, WiFi and more). The only that was never added to the line is 3G. Two years after the 8300’s launch, the 8520/8530 and the 8900 models were released (2009). The BlackBerry Curve 8910 is the newest addition to the series.
Makers of the BlackBerry
Despite the Blackberry having been around for about eight years now, many people still remember the term Crackberry –coined after the email addiction got from having spent too much time on the original BlackBerry devices sending and receiving emails to their friends.
At a time when CDMA and GSM technology was still in its early to mid stages, Research in Motion has been taking advantage of the new data telecommunications technology. After introducing email to the mobile phone, the company began delivering products and services that mainly targeted the business industry.
Now, RIM is considered as the world leader in business phones. Despite steep competition from Palm and Windows Mobile phones, BlackBerry has always stayed one step ahead of the race with their ergonomic keyboards, stable operating system and business solution software.
