BlackBerry Curve 8900

The BlackBerry Curve 8900 is a new BlackBerry mobile phone developed by Research In Motion.

All the familiar BlackBerry applications are available on the Curve 8900, such as WordToGo, SheetToGo, SlideshowToGo, along with games: BrickBreaker, WordMole, Sudoku and Klondike.

In the BlackBerry model lineup, the device appears to be a replacement for the older BlackBerry Curve 8300 and is an upgrade in most all aspects and features. The most significant differences to the recently released and related BlackBerry Bold is the Curve 8900 is smaller and has a better camera, but lacks the faster 3G support of the Bold. Key differences between the BlackBerry Curve and BlackBerry Bold are the smaller but higher resolution Curve 8900 screen, different USB port (mini vs. micro), smaller keyboard, improved "Atomic" trackball, larger internal memory, slightly slower processor, and a speculated lower price.

Its project name was Javelin. The first official release network/company for the 8900, in North America was Rogers Wireless, Canada. The official release on T-Mobile USA was on February 11, 2009.[1] The phone has been released on most UK networks. It was first thought to be a part of the latest 9000 series phones; however it was revealed to be an 8900 series due to the lack of 3G, unlike the BlackBerry Bold, and was officially named the BlackBerry Curve 8900. The BlackBerry Curve 8900 is a Quad-band GSM/EDGE phone, unlike the BlackBerry Tour which is an EV-DO device, both with Wi-Fi and GPS.
