First hands-on with BlackBerry Pearl2 9100 (Code-Name Striker)

By James on Nov 20, 2009 in BlackBerry, Featured News, Pearl 9100 Series, Rumors, Un-Released models.

blackberry-pearl-striker-9100-main

It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything about the next generation BlackBerry Pearl (code-named Stratus and/or Striker). But today today two different sites leaked details on this hot un-released device! Both CrackBerry and Salomondrin got hands-on time with the new Pearl2. Basically this device will feature an optical trackpad (like most new BlackBerry devices), of course Suretype QWERTY keyboard, along with a more BlackBerry Bold2/Storm2 kind of style. It’s going to be really small, and really thin, and it almost makes me want to use a Pearl again. We’ve heard the Pearl2 will come in both a 3G and CDMA model for markets across the World, although nothing is confirmed as of now. Click read more below to see more pictures, and links to the previews.
