Exclusive Photos: RIM's BlackBerry Javelin
IT PRO got its hands on RIM's next BlackBerry, the mass-market Javelin smartphone, which is set to arrive in the UK in November.
Nobody can accuse RIM of being lazy, with new handsets coming thick and fast from the Canadian smartphone maker.
Last month, the company unveiled its extremely impressive high-end BlackBerry Bold device, which IT PRO acknowledged with its coveted Editor's Choice badge.
This month, the Pearl flip phone, the first flip from RIM, appeared.
Now, with an imminent launch plan leaked in the US for the touch screen Storm unit, the low-end GPRS-based Javelin has also appeared in the flesh. We got our hands on one in Portugal and managed to grab a few exclusive photos to show you what this new device will be like when it goes on sale in November.
