Remember that Virtual BlackBerry client RIM announced a few months back? Well BGR seems to think it'll be heading over to T-Mobile for their popular T-Mobile Dash smartphone. While they didn't release too many details it's expected it will launch soon that that device. Meanwhile we guess it might also head over to Cingular AT&T's ever so popular Samsung BlackJack smartphone. Guess we will have to wait for more details… Stay tuned.

Danger and Motorola dedicated to get together to bring another new Sidekick device to the board. While it's no BlackBerry it's most likely the consumer-berry's cheapest competition. This is the Danger Sidekick Slide (or Zante to some) developed in partnership with Motorola. Not much information is known about, even Boy Genius himself isn't saying boo about it. He simply just put it out there. With this being out in the wild now we expect to see a launch within the next few weeks or months. Get out his gallery full of shots.

Sprint have officially launched the BlackBerry 8830 World Edition. It's now available in stores for a cool $199 with two year contract. One of the best parts about Sprint's 8830 is that it features an unlocked SIM card slot meaning while traveling overseas you can simply pop in a local sim avoiding Sprint's heavy international roaming fees. Another note about their version of the 8830 is it's sporting a Qualcomm processor logo right on the back of the device…
