By Info Behemoth

On Tuesday, July 17th, Research in Motion (RIM) announced that the BlackBerry 8820 would be the first dual-mode BlackBerry to provide wireless voice and data access over both cellular and Wi-Fi wireless networks.

Much like the new Apple iPhone, the BlackBerry 8820 can switch between EDGE, GPRS and GSM networks and 802.11a/b/g Wi-Fi. However, in contrast to the Apple iPhone, the 8820 does have built-in GPS support.

In addition to GPS support, this new BlackBerry also boasts the following features:

  • Full QWERTY keyboard
  • 320 x 240 display
  • Trackball navigation
  • Media player
  • Expandable memory slot for micromemory cards up to 32GB
  • Removable battery
  • Voice-activated dialing
  • Conference calling
  • Speakerphone
  • Bluetooth 2.0 support

The BlackBerry 8820 will be available through AT&T by the end of the summer.
