    Full Specs for the Blackberry Pearl 8100


    The Blackberry Pearl's full stats have been disclosed on Pinstack's forums. Some highlights from the consumer smartphone:
    •1.3 MPixel camera, with online storage of photos
    •Officially can be used as a laptop modem
    •Quad Band GSM, with EDGE data (even if it's the slow T-Mobile kind)
    •A 240 by 260 resolution screen
    •Thinner than a RAZR (But not smaller)
    •MicroSD expansion, and MP3 ringtone support

    So, it's pretty, but its still a blackberry. Boring to me, exciting to office drones. Maybe I'll think differently once I see the hardware for myself. Thanks Pinstack. Full specs after the jump.
