BlackBerry 8830, BlackBerry 8800, and BlackBerry 8820 Information
Anyone ever wanted to know the difference between the GSM/GPRS/EDGE BlackBerry 8800 (currently on AT&T, T-Mobile, Vodafone, Rogers and a number of other carriers) and the upcoming CDMA/EV-DO BlackBerry 8830 World Phone (soon to be found on Verizon, Sprint, Telus, and others)?
According to this leaked AT&T document obtained exclusively by BGR, the BlackBerry 8800 device has almost twice the processing speed and a substantial 35% advantage on talk time but lacks in data speeds (EDGE vs EV-DO). 312MHz vs. 225MHz, wow!
Granted, this is nothing more than propoganda promoting the Baby Bell BlackBerry North American Championship match, pitting Verizon versus AT&T – the champion versus the top contender – in the title bout, but the hard facts don’t lie.
Oh yeah, there is also a little blurb about some new device called the BlackBerry 8820, which includes Wi-Fi functionality, seeing a release date on AT&T in Q3 this year.
