“It looks like my first RAZR”, would be the first thing that comes to our minds after getting a glimpse of the upcoming BlackBerry Kickstart. Unfortunately, the Kickstart is RIM’s idea of next generation for the SureType addicts looking for a clamshell form factor on T-mobile’s network. The details are very limited on the Kickstart at this point, but early indications lead us to believe there is a 2 mega-pixel camera on the back, a QVGA 320×240 internal display and a 160 x 128 external display. Since T-mobile is launching all new handsets with Wi-Fi for their HotSpot@Home service, you can expect Wi-Fi on the BlackBerry Kickstart as well and of course the standard 3.5mm headphone jack. The big downer here is that once again you are looking at a RIM device packing only EDGE data support and will have to continue waiting for the BlackBerry 9000 series to hit At&t if you have a need for speed.
