Sprint Nextel and Research In Motion (RIM) today launched the BlackBerry 7100i. It will operat on Nextel Nation Network and will include real-time GPS navigation and walkie-talkie services.
Features of the BlackBerry 7100i include a (240 x 260 pixel) display, QWERTY keyboard, Bluetooth, speakerphone, 64MB flash memory, wireless synchronization of calendar, contacts, and more.
"This device is different from most BlackBerry devices because it looks and feels more like a traditional phone - including a narrower, smaller form factor - yet it still boasts the functionality of BlackBerry that customers have come to expect," said Vicki Warker, vice president of marketing for Sprint. "The addition of the BlackBerry 7100i handset to our broad portfolio of integrated devices demonstrates Sprint's commitment to providing services that allow busy mobile professionals to stay connected and multitask from anywhere and everywhere."
The BlackBerry 7100i will be available starting next week on the Nextel website and Nextel stores for $349.99 before discounts.

I personally think this is one of the most powerful phones ive seen so far it beat having a Sidekick 2 and a i860 , you have it all in once the plans are just way too expensive at this time .
