After much hype, the Blackberry 9000 has finally been released to peering eyes and what a beauty it is. A Blackberry that can be called “sexy” will be available sometime mid-year 2008.
With rounded edges and a new OS, the Blackberry 9000 is changing the face of Blackberry for the better. The Blackberry Curve 8830 and BlackBerry Pearl 8120 might be the ones on display at CITA 2008 and stirring up commotion but the 9000 is definitely causing its own tornado.
The new OS, revamped from top to bottom, Blackberry OS 4.5 has a more modern look, suited to the suits in the world. It gets rid of the cartoonish look that accompanied the older models but made up for it with rounded edges that seem to take away from the overall design. As earlier reported, the 9000 will sport both WiFi and HSDPA, 624MHz processor, and GPS. The big disappointment is the battery life. An anonymous RIM informant has mentioned the battery life is horrible and will make you turn your head back to the iPhone. Being a Canadian, I know that RIM will fix this, regardless if it’s an issue or not.
