				<p><p>While BlackBerry maker RIM has launched a variety of its consumer-aimed 8000 series Pearls, a next-gen version has yet to emerge - until now.</p>
<p>There images, leaked by <a href="http://crackberry.com/blackberry-pearl-9100-images" target="_blank">CrackBerry</a>, show the new handset in all its angular glory, and from the finished state of the phone, suggest an imminent launch.</p>
<p>The 3G BlackBerry Pearl 9100 follows previous models by offering a smaller BlackBerry form factor with a SureType keypad.</p>
<p>Specs are yet to be revealed, but we'll keep you posted.</p></p>

				<p>
					Mr T, aka the Storm 3, becomes 9900 as analyst weighs in with info<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images2.pocket-lint.com/images/r2x4/blackberry-9900-sliding-touchscreen-rumour-0.jpg" alt="New sliding touchscreen BlackBerry rumoured" />				</p>
				<p><p>A new BlackBerry-flavoured rumour has emerged suggesting RIM is not planning on putting all its future eggs solely in the touchscreen basket.<br /><br />While RIM's first touchscreen handset, the Storm, got mixed reviews for its click-touch screen, the second gen version, the Storm 2 (<a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/27959/vodafone-makes-storm-2-official" target="_blank">available now</a>) is said to have a greatly improved touchscreen interface.<br /><br />However, this maybe a step too far for many BlackBerry-using diehards who favour RIM's smartphones for their QWERTY keyboards. <br /><br />If the <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/27485/blackberry-mr-t-toushcreen-qwerty" target="_blank">rumours</a> are to be believed, RIM is busy prepping a touchscreen slider that will offer consumers "the best of both worlds".<br /><br />The rumour has gained pace with a recent research note from Kaufman Bros analyst Shaw Wu who says the new handset, "resembles a cross between the Storm 2 and one of RIM's non-touch QWERTY devices". <br /><br />"It's currently in the prototype stage and is likely to ship sometime in 2010", reports Electronista quoting Wu's research.</p>

					Restaurant discovery app now on RIM's handsets<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images2.pocket-lint.com/images/qWKa/urban-spoon-comes-to-blackberry-0.jpg" alt="Urbanspoon comes to BlackBerry" />				</p>
				<p><p>Hungry? Restaurant-recommendation company Urbanspoon has rolled out a <a href="http://www.urbanspoon.com/blackberry" target="_blank">BlackBerry application</a>. It joins the company's iPhone application, which has proved rather popular on Apple's handsets.</p>
<p>The app detects your location and allows users to select a type of food and a price range, before giving a one-armed bandit "spin" to pick a suitable restaurant that matches your selections. BlackBerry handsets equipped with an accelerometer can be shaken to spin the wheels.</p>
<p>Ethan Lowry, co-founder of the company, <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/11/10/urbanspoon-expands-to-the-urban-workforce-with-a-blackberry-app/" target="_blank">told TechCrunch</a> that Urbanspoon worked with <a href="http://www.xtremelabs.com/apps" target="_blank">Xtreme Labs</a> to create its app, adding: "It's one of the snazziest BlackBerry apps there is". Android is apparently the next target for the company, and Windows Mobile and webOS were mentioned as on the horizon but still some way away.</p>
<p>The app is free, and <a href="http://www.urbanspoon.com/blackberry" target="_blank">available to download now</a>.</p></p>

					Could mean Google Maps Navigation heading RIM's way too<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images1.pocket-lint.com/images/qTFM/3d-gaming-coming-blackberry-opengl-0.jpg" alt="3D gaming coming to a BlackBerry near you" />				</p>
				<p><p><a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/rim">RIM</a>, the maker of the BlackBerry handsets, is hoping to appeal to gamers in the future with an announcement that it will be supporting the OpenGL ES technology in its handsets.</p>
<p>The news, which was announced at the company's developer conference in San Francisco, means that games developers will be able to bring the latest 3D mobile games they've been making for the iPhone to the BlackBerry platform.</p>
<p>"With OpenGL ES support, Java developers will have the ability to build 3D games and graphics for BlackBerry smartphones running BlackBerry OS 5.0 and higher", RIM said in a statement.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/ea">EA</a>?Mobile, has already started developing games for the platform, which is expected to be enabled on the new?<a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com//news/27968/blackberry-storm-2-photo-gallery">BlackBerry Storm 2</a>?first.</p>
<p>However more interesting to non-gamers, the average BlackBerry user, is that it should open up other applications like Google's newly announced <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/28320/google-maps-navigation-iphone-3gs" target="_self">Google Maps Navigation</a>. At the recent Droid launch event in NYC, Google told Pocket-lint that it could be possible to port the GPS app to the iPhone because of the OpenGL support.</p>
<p>This announcement would mean that Google could add BlackBerry to that same list.</p>

					New browser for the BlackBerry on the way?<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images3.pocket-lint.com/images/qJCt/rim-advertises-for-webkit-developer-0.jpg" alt="RIM advertises for &quot;WebKit Developer&quot;" />				</p>
				<p><p>RIM is <a href="http://www.careerbeacon.com/search/en/-1/-1/14/-1/0/0/0/0/0/0/3/MB0910303813" target="_blank">advertising</a> for a Canadian-based WebKit developer, following its acquisition of Torch Mobile (a company that developed the WebKit-based Iris Browser). Both bits of evidence irrefutably point to the fact that RIM knows the BlackBerry browser is a bit rubbish and is trying to fix it.</p>
<p>WebKit is a rendering engine that's used, most notably, in Apple's Safari (both on desktop and in the iPhone) and Google's Chrome browsers. It's also used in Symbian's S60 browser which can be found on Nokia, Samsung and LG handsets. Android's browser is based on WebKit, too, as is the Palm Pre's.</p>
<p>It's essentially the industry standard, and should help to make the BlackBerry browser more of a joy to use than its predecessor. For now, though, there's no official acknowledgement of the switch, let alone any kind of release date for a newer version of the browser, so sit tight for now and we'll let you know when we hear anything more concrete.</p>
<p>?</p></p>

					New flagship handset for RIM<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images2.pocket-lint.com/images/pR30/rim-blackberry-bold-9700-smartphone-0.jpg" alt="BlackBerry Bold 9700 announced " />				</p>
				<p><p>RIM has announced a successor to its <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/14573/blackberry-9000-bold-launched-rim" target="_blank">original Bold</a>, launched way back in May of 2008, with the news that the Bold 9700 will soon be here. The handset closely resembles its predecessor, complete with fake leather battery cover and full QWERTY. However it's a little smaller and has a trackpad rather than the original's trackball.</p>
<p>There's a 480 x 360 display, 5.0 BlackBerry OS, Marvell Tavor processor, 256MB of memory, A-GPS, Wi-Fi and a 3.2-megapixel camera. RIM reckons the battery life will last 2 days, though, which would be impressive on a smartphone. It also has a microUSB port and 3.5mm headphone jack.</p>
<p>There's no word on what networks it'll be available on, or how much it'll cost but it'll be available from the start of November. We'll be getting some close-up photos and a first look at the device shortly, so if you have anything you'd particularly like us to check out, feel free to comment below.</p>
<p>UPDATE: Further to a news story on FoneHome, we've been able to independently confirm that Vodafone will be offering the new Bold from November at a ?35 per month price point. Thanks to BobbyG for the comment.</p></p>

				<p><p>An interesting accessory to work with RIM's range of popular smartphones is being prepped - a wristwatch.<br /><br />Rather than a fully-fledged watch phone, the likes of which we've seen hit the market from <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/25324/lg-watchphone-arrives-in-august" target="_blank">LG</a>, the BlackBerry watch is designed as an accessory to use when your phone is out of reach, similar to <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/8237/sony-ericsson-mbw-150-bluetooth-watches" target="_blank">Sony Ericsson's</a> Bluetooth watches. <br /><br />Revealed by CrackBerry's sources, the "inPulse smartwatch" as it's been dubbed, will offer a bright OLED display and is said to have been developed by a new BlackBerry accessory company from the ground up.<br /><br />Due "soon" it's "designed to show you notifications and previews of messages arriving on your BlackBerry" while there's also talk of BlackBerry apps to work with the watch.</p>
<p>We will keep you posted.</p></p>

					We gently caress RIM's new 'Berry
<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images4.pocket-lint.com/images/pJGh/blackberry-storm-2-photo-gallery-0.jpg" alt="PHOTOS: BlackBerry Storm 2  " />				</p>
				<p><p>We all knew there was a Storm coming, not because of the feeling in our bones, but because Carphone Warehouse did such a good job of telling us. We've finally got our hands on the new BlackBerry Storm 2 and grabbed a gallery of photos to show it off.</p>
<p>The SurePress "clicky" touchscreen hasn't been totally obliterated, but is entirely new. Rather than the former mechanical click it is now an electromechanical system. You still have to press to confirm actions, but when there is no current running through the screen &ndash; i.e., when the phone is turned off &ndash; then it is solid.</p>
<p>This also means that rather than the screen acting as one single button, it can now act as multiple buttons, so typing is faster and more natural. The Storm 2 will ship with version 5 of BlackBerry's OS.</p>
<p>The other specs read-out fairly typical for a modern smartphone, you get a 3.25-inch display, HSPA, GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a 3.2-megapixel camera with LED flash around the back.</p>
<p>We'll be getting our hands on the Storm 2 for a full review soon. Until then, sate your lust (or satisfy your curiosity) with this gallery.</p>

					Mossberg files ahead of RIM<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images3.pocket-lint.com/images/pJ6t/rim-blackberry-storm-2-leaks-0.jpg" alt="Blackberry Storm 2 unofficially official" />				</p>
				<p><p>RIM will officially launch the BlackBerry Storm 2 in both America and the UK on Thursday.</p>
<p>The news, broken by?Wall Street Journal tech reporter Walt Mossberg, ahead of an official announcement from RIM, means we get some of the details ahead of an expected official launch on Thursday.</p>
<p>Those details are thin on the ground for the brief review, however the conclusion is that:"Overall, I found the Storm2 worked well in my tests". ?</p>
<p>According to Mossberg "the browser is still inferior to Apple&rsquo;s, Google&rsquo;s and Palm&rsquo;s. And the traditional BlackBerry interface cries out for a major overhaul in a touch device like this, especially when you add a lot of apps".?</p>
<p>Mossberg does confirm that "Battery life was decent, with 5.5 hours of claimed talk time, and typing was much improved, though I doubt it will satisfy lovers of physical keyboards".</p>
<p>Meanwhile in the UK the Guardian is reporting that?"Vodafone will have the handset as an exclusive in the UK, but only for a few weeks. RIM is understood to have demanded that the device be available to other operators after Vodafone joined Orange in successfully ending O2's?exclusive two-year deal with Apple for the iPhone in the UK".</p>
<p>Expect the official details and our thoughts when the phone officially launches.</p>
<p>?</p></p>

				<p><p>The BlackBerry Storm 2 will launch on Verizon wireless in the States some time this week, reports The New York Times. <br /><br />This latest news, still as-yet unconfirmed by BlackBerry maker RIM, follows the recent news Pocket-lint brought you that <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/27741/blackberry-storm-2-carphone-warehouse" target="_blank">Carphone</a> <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/27818/blackberry-storm-2-priced-vodafone" target="_blank">Warehouse</a> was prepping to offer the touchscreen phone here in the UK.<br /><br />In the UK it's Vodafone that will offer the new and improved Storm 2, as it did the <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/review/3596/blackberry-storm-mobile-phone-review" target="_blank">original</a>, a situation echoed in the US with Verizon confirmed for the sequel handset after it shifted around a million of the first-gen model.</p>
<p>The New York Times' report suggests that the Storm 2 will still offer a SurePress clickable touchscreen, as the Storm did, a feature that has been improved on the next-gen device, rather than dropped, as had been reported. From the NYT:</p>
<p>"This week, Verizon and RIM are trying again with a Storm do-over, the Storm 2. Among its many improvements, the new phone gives the user the sensation of pushing a physical button when pressing a number on the glass touch screen".</p>
<p>We will keep you posted.</p></p>

					Another too-early Carphone Warehouse poster reveals from price <br />
					<img class="" src="http://images1.pocket-lint.com/images/pB5K/blackberry-storm-2-priced-vodafone-0.jpg" alt="Vodafone to offer BlackBerry Storm 2 from &pound;30" />				</p>
				<p><p>RIM's BlackBerry Storm 2, the follow up to its first ever touchscreen handset the Storm that launched in 2008, appears to be due an imminent UK release with the Carphone Warehouse now promoting the device in store.</p>
<p>Following the <a title="news" href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/27741/blackberry-storm-2-carphone-warehouse" target="_blank">news</a> that a promo poster for the device appeared in the window of a Carphone Warehouse store in Cornwall, yet another posted has now revealed a little bit more information - a rough idea of pricing.</p>
<p>From the promotional material in the shop window - this time round in Walton on Thames - it seems the smartphone will be available on Vodafone contracts from ?30 a month, perhaps a little less than might have been expected.</p>
<p>Specs for the new handset are rumoured to include a 3.2-megapixel camera, HSDPA, OS version 5.0 and a completely revamped 360 ? 480 resolution capacitive touchscreen without the original Storm screen's clicky functionality.</p>
<p>?</p>

				<p><p>In the States RIM is to offer two of its popular smartphones in white, Engadget reports with <a title="hands-on pics" href="http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/10/08/rim-goes-pale-shows-white-curve-8520-for-t-mobile-and-bold-for/" target="_blank">hands-on pics</a>.  The BlackBerry Bold and Curve 8520 are to get the pale paint jobs for AT&T and T-Mobile respectively.   Here in the UK, we've seen the Bold in <a title="yellow" href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/23819/yellow-blackberry-bold-photo-gallery" target="_blank">yellow</a> and <a title="pink" href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/22278/amosu-pink-diamond-blackberry-bold" target="_blank">pink</a>, and the Curve 8520 in <a title="violet" href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/25894/carphone-prices-violet-blackberry-8520" target="_blank">violet</a>, but there's no news yet on the white models for us.</p></p>

					"I'm not on display" for now...<br />

				<p><p>The Carphone Warehouse will be stocking the BlackBerry Storm 2 as powered by Vodafone, an eagle eyed tech fiend has spotted.?</p>
<p>The picture, posted to Twitpic via a friend based in Newquay, shows a placement card for the yet to be officially announced handset in a Carphone Warehouse store with the words:</p>
<p>"I'm not on display, please ask a sales consultant for a demonstration".</p>
<p>RIM, the company behind the BlackBerry range, has yet to confirm when the new Storm 2 will be out although his picture suggests it won't be long.?</p>
<p>Earlier in the Summer, <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/26246/vodafone-blackberry-storm-2-pictures" target="_self">spy pictures of the handset</a> showed up in Germany running on the Vodafone network.</p>
<p>Although not confirmed in this set of images, previous rumours have suggested the phone will get a 3.2-megapixel camera, HSDPA, a 360 ? 480 resolution capacitive touchscreen and OS version 5.0.?</p>
<p>Vodafone announced the <a href="http://www.pocket-lint.com/review/3596/blackberry-storm-mobile-phone-review" target="_self">BlackBerry Storm</a> at the beginning of October in 2008 giving it plenty of time to sell to would be Christmas shoppers looking to treat themselves.</p></p>

					RIM gets its own music download platform.<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images2.pocket-lint.com/images/ptGF/7digital-unveils-blackberry-music-app-0.jpg" alt="BlackBerry music app unveiled by 7Digital" />				</p>
				<p><p>The iPhone has iTunes. Android has Amazon MP3, at least in the States and Nokia has Comes with Music, but until now BlackBerry and Windows Mobile users were sat in the cold.<br /><br />BlackBerry's now been invited into the warm confines of the party, leaving poor old Windows Mobile still outside. 7digital, alongside announcing that it's launching in the States, has revealed that its previously-planned application for BlackBerry users to download music is now here.<br /><br />The app is free, and works on the BlackBerry Bold, BlackBerry Curve 8900 and BlackBerry Tour in North America. By the end of the week, 7digital tells us, the company will have it working on the BlackBerry Storm and BlackBerry Curve 8520, too.<br /><br />It's  available in the UK, the USA, Germany and Spain, and should launch shortly in Canada. It's been built by DevelopIQ, and works on both Wi-Fi and 3G. In the latter case, when you buy a track it'll download a 64kbps version over 3G, before upgrading it automatically to a 320kbps one when you next connect to a Wi-Fi network.<br /><br />It can run in the background, unlike an iPhone application, and it can also stream audio over Bluetooth to devices. DevelopIQ is working on push functionality that'll allow any tracks bought on your PC to be pushed automatically to your BlackBerry over Wi-Fi, too.<br /><br />The app is available now from BlackBerry App World.</p></p>

					(Except the iPhone)<br />
					<img class="" src="http://images1.pocket-lint.com/images/prJ0/flash-coming-to-mobile-phones-0.jpg" alt="Flash coming to almost every smartphone" />				</p>
				<p>Adobe has announced a whole pile of deals with manufacturers of almost all the world's major smartphones. It's done deals with RIM (who produce the BlackBerry handsets), Symbian, Windows Mobile, Palm, and Google. Notice one name missing from that list? The iPhone hasn't joined the party.<br /><br />Adobe has said that the full Flash player - starting from version 10.1 - will be arriving on browsers on Windows Mobile and Palm webOS handsets later this year. Betas for Symbian and Android are expected to be showing up early next year, and BlackBerry is labelled as a vague "in the future".<br /><br />Flash 10.1, if the company's vision is realised, will work over PCs, smartphones, netbooks and other devices seamlessly. It's part of the company's wide-ranging Open Screen Project. Up until now phones have had a chopped back version of Flash, called Flash lite, but the new version will be full-functioning Flash.<br /><br />Handsets that are capable of Flash 10.1 will get an over-the-air upgrade, meaning that customers shouldn't have to do anything. Meanwhile, the iPhone is conspicuous by its absence. Adobe has said it's working with Apple, but that it's all running on a different timescale to the rest of the companies.<br /></p>
