RIM BlackBerry 8820

AT&T and Research in Motion officially released the RIM BlackBerry 8820, the first BlackBerry to offer integrated Wi-Fi. The 820 supports 802.11a/ standards and is compliant with Wi-Fi security protocols, giving users another avenue to connect to the web – a good thing since the device shows no love for 3G just yet. It also continues to offer Bluetooth and GPS support lie it’s older sibling, the RIM BlackBerry 8800, as will as push e-mail and multimedia. It’s a device built with the business user in mind and definitely won’t have the mass appeal of a BlackBerry Pearl of BlackBerry Curve. There’s not even a camera option. That said, for the intended audience the 8820 will certainly deliver the goods and performance.
