This morning has seen the arrival of the latest Blackberry to the Curve family; the Blackberry Curve 8900. And not a Javelin pun in sight. The newest Curve has led a charmed existence gathering a huge following as the Blackberry Javelin before it was even officially announced. Now, the wait is over, the phone that blossomed in to the Blackberry Curve 8900 has hit the shelves at Mobiles.co.uk and is in stock and available on O2 and Orange. So for all you Blackberry fans (or should that be fanatics), you’ve had all the information you need, but for the uninitiated, read on to find out all you need to know about the latest and greatest in push email mobile phones, the Blackberry Curve 8900.
The latest Curve bears a close resemblance to its predecessors and also its stable mate the Blackberry Bold. However, look a little closer and you’ll find the 8900 Curve to be a far more handsome beast thanks to slimmer dimensions and a smooth titanium finish on the back. The Curve is also slightly lighter (109g) for good measure. Of course as to be expected from a Blackberry, the 8900 has a full QWERTY keyboard which helps to deliver the best mobile email experience available. Emails pop up on your home screen as if you were sat in your PC allowing you to open, download attachments, edit documents, attach and reply, all with ease thanks to the aforementioned keypad and trackball combination which acts like a keyboard and mouse on your home PC or Laptop. The Curve also features a truly stunning TFT display which making web browsing and watching media a dream. Seeing truly is believing when it comes to this phone, the quality and clarity of the screen will have you aimlessly browsing through menus and web pages just as an excuse. And what the Curve lacks in 3G, it makes up for in Wi-Fi connectivity so your download requirements are still catered for.
Elsewhere, the Blackberry Curve 8900 follows the recent Blackberry trend of delivering an all round user friendly experience so we also find a 3.2 Megapixel camera with a powerful flash and Autofocus, integrated GPS SatNav with Blackberry maps and A-GPS support, MP3 and multimedia player which, in tandem with the excellent display make for an incredible multimedia experience, expandable memory, Bluetooth and a wealth of calendar and organisational options. I think you’ll agree that if Blackberry had stuck with the Javelin name, it certainly would have lived up to its name and gone the distance (sorry).
