In one of our shootouts, we said that the only way BlackBerry was going to make it into the mainstream is if they add media capabilities in their platform. Well, they just did with the newly released T-Mobile BlackBerry Pearl.
What's seemingly great about this is that they now have a 1.3 megapixel camera (no doubt it'll suck, but hey, at least there is one!), "real" web browsing (this means HTML y'all - no WAP pages and the like). It's a quad-band, looks pretty good, BUT it has the quasi-keyboard akin to the 7105t (from T-Mobile).
Stay tuned for more details... Specs (from the T-Mobile website):
