T-Mobile and Research In Motion (RIM) has announced last week that it will start selling the BlackBerry Bold in Germany and Austria this week. The BlackBerry Bold smartphone comes with integrated GPS and Wi-Fi and is the first BlackBerry smartphone to support tri-band HSDPA high-speed networks around the world. Users can surf the Internet and download large e-mail attachments over the T-Mobile UMTS web’n'walk network.


The BlackBerry Bold smartphone has a rich set of multimedia capabilities and displays content beautifully on its half-VGA (480×320 resolution at 217 ppi) color LCD display. The BlackBerry Bold smartphone’s support for tri-band HSDPA and enterprise-grade Wi-Fi (802.11 a/b/g) networks and its next-generation 624 MHz mobile processor make short work of downloading email attachments, streaming video or rendering web pages over the T-Mobile network.

“The BlackBerry Bold is the most advanced and performance-driven BlackBerry smartphone in our portfolio. We are also delighted to say that because of the long time partnership with RIM, the handset is very well optimised for T-Mobile Germany’s network and services,” says Dr. Frank Wermeyer, Director Business Marketing, T-Mobile Germany. “With HSDPA and EDGE technology, users can experience a fast and comfortable way of accessing the Internet and intranets through our high-speed network,” he continued.
