In the world of mobile email, it's hard to compete with RIM and the plethora of BlackBerry devices it has to offer. With BlackBerry's latest smartphone for T-Mobile, the Curve 8320, the companies hope to capitalize by taking advantage of RIM's infrastructure, T-Mobile's wireless calling plans, and the undeniable benefit of adding a little WiFi into the mix. Does the device live up to the hype? Did RIM make a mistake when it outfitted the Curve with a small processor and WiFi? Continue reading on to find out.

BlackBerry 8800 + WiFi = 8820?

by Chris Ziegler, posted Feb 16th 2007 @ 5:24AM


Ahh, so that's what the WiFi indicator on the 8800's press shot was all about, eh? We've been hearing rumblings of a WiFi-enabled version of the BlackBerry 8800 for months before the darned thing's official release, and Pinstack's fanning the flames with a new comparison chart allegedly pitting the venerable 8700 against an "8820" that sports WiFi. Not much is known about the device at this point, but given the relatively modest bump in model number, we'd expect changes to be minor beyond the addition of the WAN radio. Pinstack's liking the chances of the 8820 launching by mid-year -- and given the 8800's lack of WCDMA, we think it couldn't possibly get out the door soon enough.

Moto to introduce NC800 EV-DO WiFi router?

by Ryan Block, posted Apr 2nd 2006 @ 12:17PM

Looks like Moto's jumping in the 3G WiFi router arena too soon enough, only their new NC800 isn't kind enough to the user to be carrier-independent and have a PC card slot for your choice of wireless broadband. No, the NC800 is straight up EV-DO Rel. 0, and comes also with your usual 802.11b/g, Ethernet ports, and firewall. Nothing special or out of the ordinary, in other words, but maybe if they get the price down to something reasonable they'll be able to snag a few customers.
