Well shiver me timbers. Who would have thought RIM, the maker of the business-suit BlackBerry handset lineup, would ever make a more consumer-friendly clamshell mobile phone? We sure didn't.
Enough with the rhetoric. What you see here is purportedly the first-ever flip-phone from RIM - dubbed the "Kickstart." It's tiny little thing and sports the compact SureType keyboard that seems like it was intended for a clamshell. BlackBerry scoop-er Boy Genius has posted photos of this new RIM Kickstart handset, which shows off both an internal and external display as well as the trackball that we first saw in the BlackBerry Pearl.
The RIM Kickstart is slated for launch before year's end, so if you've been waiting for a BlackBerry flip phone, your wait is almost over!
