The Blackberry Pearl Flip 8220 is the first ever clamshell device from the RIM stable.

It makes a refreshing change to the rather "staid" business range and brings a little bit of glamour to the world of work, work, work !

The Flip 8220 is a quad band device that has Bluetooth, GPRS, EDGE and WiFi connectivity. Blackberry's "push e-mail" system is utilised & thus you have all the access you require for your "office on the go".

Design wise, apart from the obvious clamshell form, the 8220 weighs just 102g and measures 101.1 x 50 x 17.5 mm so it's really quite a small phone to be packed with so many features, especially for a Smartphone too.

The multimedia support is very comprehensive & now supports iTunes too which is an added bonus. There's also a 2 megapixel camera for video & photography & expandable memory upto a very healthy 8Gb.

The Blackberry Pearl Flip 8220 - Who says style & work can't go together ?
