Trackpad-equipped BlackBerry Curve 8910 spotted in the wild

12 January, 2010

The time for the BlackBerry Curve 8900 successor has come. It's been more than a year since the Curve 8900 announcement but today we spotted the first image of its replacement. Reportedly, the new device will be called BlackBerry Curve 8910 and will exchange the 8900's trackball for a trackpad.

Strangely, up until now the BlackBerry XX10 naming has been used only for devices which add GPS capabilities to the XX00 named versions but the 8900 already had a built-in GPS receiver in the first place. It's still a mystery what exactly the Curve 8910 updates (except the trackball)?

The new Curve 8910 has a trackpad instead of a trackball

The only major thing the BlackBerry Curve 8900 lacked was 3G support but if the 8910 packs that then that will make it identical to the Bold 9700. But we're only guessing here.

The Curve 8910 will also come with the latest BlackBerry OS (5.0.4+) but none of the other juicy details are known by now. It is still a mystery when the new BlackBerry smartphone will show up officially and at what price.
