Blackberry 7130 gets real, FCC style

by Ryan Block posted May 4th 2006 at 10:32AM

Thank you for once again making our lives interesting, oh gracious FCC. Your freshly unearthed filings from Research in Motion have divined us a small bounty of BlackBerry 7130s, which turned out to be where those other pics of the Cingular 7130 popped up from. Including the already launched 7130e, we've got four models on our hands now with the 7130c, 7130g, and 7130v. Each of the GSM devices should have quad-band EDGE as per the filing, as well as Bluetooth 2.0, 64MB flash and 16MB RAM, and the usual mini USB port. We'll let you know more as these things get prices and launch dates -- we're assuming it won't be too long now that the cat's out of the very holey FCC bag.

I'm already sick of my Qtek 9100/T-mobile MDA/HTC Wizard/i-mate K-JAM. The Treo 600 I had before was rock solid, but the 650 I use for work resets too much. Perhaps it's time to try a BB. But I hate predictive text and that's pretty much what this keyboard is. I'll have to try someone else's first and see how that flies.

doyouflip - i really really feel sorry for you, honestly i do. Why?? cos u are on the bleeding edge - seems to me that these phone guys always rush to release their phones (Nokia, SE, Qtek et al - they are all the same!!) BEFORE THEY IRON OUT AL ISSUES!!

the Qtek is one of the worst deals possible - except for the snob factor, there isnt really anything worthwhile about the machine - it hangs endslessly, has poor network quality, is as difficult to use as a Windows PC ..... just take my advice and DUMP IT FOR A TREO 600 - YES!! that is what i use currently .. sure it lacks bluetooth but with my 512MB expansion card, I CAN DO ANYTHING THE QTEKS,N9300, OR P910s CAN DO!!! TAKE MY ADVICE FRIEND .. DROP THE BUGGER!!!

The HTC Wizard (Qtek 9100) has replaced my mp3 player with a Plantronics 590a headset. Most stability issues with this phone can be fixed by ending unused applications through task manager imho.
