 Alltel Wireless announced that the BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8230, originally announced a few weeks ago, is now available in Alltel retail stores and online at www.shopalltel.com. The Flip 8230 remains BlackBerry's only flip smartphone, and one of the few released in the U.S. altogether.
The Flip 8230 features a QVGA (240-by-320-pixel) internal LCD, an external LCD with 160-by-128-pixel resolution, the famed SureType pseudo-QWERTY keyboard, and a 2-megapixel camera with video recording. Other features include a built-in GPS radio, a microSD card slot, stereo Bluetooth, and a media player app that can sync with iTunes and Windows Media Player.
The Flip 8230 on Alltel costs $79.99 with a two-year contract and after a $70 mail-in-rebate with various Smart Choice Packs. It's not Research In Motion's best phone, and it's a little large when opened, but more choice is always a good thing, right?
