RIM confirmed new 3.5G BlackBerry (BlackBerry 9000?). RIM is testing a new BlackBerry with 3.5G data capabilities. The Financial Times revealed that Research In Motion (RIM) President Mike Lazaridis has confirmed the near-term release of a 3.5G-enabled BlackBerry smartphone.

Lazaridis, The President of RIM (Research In Motion), said that he is toting around a prototype of the new BlackBerry that can hop along the internet superhighway at HSDPA speeds (where available).

And the new 3.5G BlackBerry could very well be the BlackBerry 9000. We can expect a large 480×320 screen, GPS, and Wi-Fi - all features that have been confirmed for the new BlackBerry device.

With AT&T’s announcement of HSDPA network upgrades nationwide, the BlackBerry 9000’s timing could indicate a release later this year. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for an announcement at CTIA next month.
