Mini BlackBerry With EDGE Coming to GSM Carriers

May 3, 2006, 4:13 PM by (staff)

The FCC yesterday approved two new GSM BlackBerrys. The existing 7130e will soon be joined by GSM/EDGE models: the 7130c for Cingular and a 7130g, likely to come to T-Mobile if naming conventions remain the same. Pictures and drawings both show the Cingular logo on one of the devices. The 7130c/g has a new more-rectangular form factor featuring the hybrid SureType keyboard, quad-band GSM/GPRS with EDGE, mini-USB and Bluetooth 2.0. Neither RIM or any carrier have announced this new Blackberry yet, so pricing and availability are still not known.

The size of the 7130c is:

4.52 x 2.17 x 0.75 inches

...which is only slightly smaller than the rest of the 7100 series. It's pretty much the same size as the 7130e.
