Is RIM about to offer a full QWERTY keyboard for the BlackBerry Pearl 9100? If you believe Al Sacco of CIO.com they are. Sacco posted some images he found at a Chinese cell phone parts reseller called TrueSupplier

Here is the latest Official BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220 OS 4.6.0.344, its’s not a very big jump from the previous 4.6.0.305.  I’m not sure exactly what the updates are but I’m sure they’re beneficial.  I know lately there has been lots of love for the 9700 and new OS 5.0 releases, so I thought I’d show our Pearl Flip users some love too

There’s now the original BlackBerry Curve 83xx series, the BlackBerry Curve 8900 and the more newly-released BlackBerry Curve 8520/30 on the market… that’s a lot of Curves available for purchase on a lot of carriers in the USA. And according to the IDC Mobile Devices and Technology Trends division that tracks these things the BlackBerry Curve was yet again the best-selling smartphone in the USA for the calendar Q4 part of 2009

Check out this video of a Nokia 5700 smartphone running BlackBerry OS 4.6. Who knows how they got this to run, but they did.

*UPDATE* - More higher res pics found here from @CellGuru* The BlackBerry Pearl 9100 is the furthest thing from a secret on the interwebs. The latest news is that it’ll be rocking T-Mobile and WIND 3G bands. Up until now it’s only ever been spotted touting the typical AT&T and Rogers 3G so if the above pic is to be believed some 1700mHz love is headed your way

Good on T-Mobile USA for this one.

T Mobile BlackBerry Pearl and Curve users are in luck.

While plenty of US customers are already enjoying their visual voicemail services, Canadian carriers have yet to enable it on their end (except TELUS). Bell Mobility has made the jump though.

Tis the time of year to be in the giving and helping mood.

Pearl Flip owners rejoice - Verizon has officially released OS 4.6.1.309 for the 8230. Again, no 5.0 love from Verizon, but we should be thankful for any updates at this point. No news on what is new in thise release, so if you’re a flip owner, give this one a shot and let us know if anything special pops up
