BlackBerry Pearl for Verizon/Sprint and 83xx for T-Mobile on May 7

Keep in mind that the information in this article is not official.

BlackBerry 8300 for Vodafone

The sexy Pearl is going to make its debut on the CDMA market, coming to US’s biggest CDMA carriers (Verizon Wireless and Sprint PCS) at the same time. This is a logical step, after both T-Mobile and AT&T Cingular have been offering it in two color versions. The Pearl has proven as an innovation for RIM and become a hit. May 07 is the date, when the Pearl should launch in CDMA markets.

T-Mobile will get its Wi-Fi capable version of the 8300-series (probably 8320) at the same date. The 8300 series are positioned between the small (Pearl) and the hi-end (8800) devices of the manufacturer. Europe customers will not wait for them, too, as photos of Vodafone version already appeared.

I switched to tmobile for this phone and its great! The camera is not the best, and the media player is real slow. I have played with cingulars 8800 and its great also. Blackberry just needs to step it up and add more multimedia functions. The younger crowds use email they just need a full featured phone this is why it hasn't become as popular as RIM would like.
