Research in Motion (RIM) unveiled two new BlackBerry
handhelds with a smaller design and more memory for European users
at the CeBIT show in Hanover.
The BlackBerry 6210 and BlackBerry 6220 allow users to make
phone calls and check their corporate e-mail over GSM/GPRS
networks. The 6210 works on 900/1900MHz networks around the world,
while the 6220 only works on 900/1800MHz networks in Europe and
Asia-Pacific, RIM said.
Both models come with 16Mbytes of flash memory plus 2Mbytes of
SRAM (static RAM). They measure 113mm x 74mm x 21mm, and weigh 136
grams.
Users will now be able to view a number of different e-mail
attachments, such as Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
documents and PDF files from Adobe Systems. RIM also enhanced the
wireless e-mail synchronisation features, allowing users to delete
and file their e-mail messages without having to connect the device
to their PC through a cradle.
