The BlackBerry 8220 Pearl hasn't been announced by Rogers or RIM itself, but it has already made its way to Canadian newspapers through a advertisement from Rogers.
RIM's first clamshell will retail at 150CAN$, and is assigned as "World ready".
The features advertised are the 2.0 megapixel camera, Next Gen Sure-Type technology, and Sleek Flip-phone design. They probably forgot to say that it's a huge and heavy clamshell phone, besides being really ugly.
The likely release date for the phone is the 4th of October, but a little pre-sales marketing is always good, as long as there is an official announcement.
