The new, clamshell BlackBerry will soon be launched in two editions. The only difference between 8210 and 8220 is that the latter has WLAN support, while the first has a GPS receiver instead. The couple, also known as Kickstart, is the first clamshell model from RIM.

The two handsets have the keypad known from 8100 (Pearl), they have a 2.6" QVGA display inside, while there is a 128 x 160 pixel large screen on the outside. There is a 2 megapixel camera for taking photos and recording videos, it has a flash too and we can provide storage with an SDHC card. The new phone will be available in many colors but the official launch date is not known yet, although these infos have been leaked by a sales partner, so there's not much time left.
