Permalink: BlackBerry Pearl 8110 available on T-Mobile

T-Mobile UK and Research In Motion (RIM) are launching the new BlackBerry Pearl 8110 smartphone in a ‘Blue Slate’ colour, along with a new price plan.

T-Mobile’s model has the same consumer-orientated features as the model launched on Vodafone in January. The compact and stylish phone includes a 2 megapixel camera, integrated GPS and Quad Band connectivity.

To differentiate its offering from Vodafone, T-Mobile is launching two price plans for email and internet access. With an 18 or 24-month contract, customers can sign-up for email-only for £5, or email and unlimited internet access for £10.

Vodafone’s version comes with Telmap navigation software and a special Facebook function. In conjunction with the GPS receiver, Telmap provides full turn-by-turn navigation rather than having to enter a location and map-read off the screen.

A year’s subscription to the Vodafone SatNav service is included.
