BlackBerry Curve 8900

blackberry-javelinThe new BlackBerry curve 8900, codenamed ‘Javelin’ is a lower cost implementation of RIM’s new design principles and latest software, and borrows heavily from the BlackBerry Bold.

The Bold and the curve 8900 useĀ  the same software revision and color scheme, but the keyboard remains very much a Curve model. However, the keyboard has been tweaked to be more responsive.

The Curve 8900 is slightly smaller than the Bold, measuring 2,36in (width) by 0.53in (depth) by 4.29in (lenght) and weighs 3.87oz. It also more plastic-looking, but retains the sleek look.

The strongest feature of the Curve 8900 is the 3.2-megapixel camera, with LED , with LED flash, that also feature autofocus and image stabilization that really works.

Perhaps, the most surprising thing about this BlackBerry is that it is not a 3G device, as with previous curve units, the 8900 will offer only GPRS and EDGE data. However, the 8900 has has stunning battery life. The 8900 also comes with pre-installed third party software, from Facebook to instant messaging. However, with only GPRS data conneection, downloading map data won’t be as snappy as it is with the Bold or the Storm.

Also not overlooked in the Curve 8900 is media playback. It has the same capabilities as the Bold in terms of stereo Bluetooth support, DivX/Xvid playback and support for every ringtone format.
