BlackBerry Curve to be available in Singapore

John Chan | Jul 17, 2007

Research In Motion (RIM) today announced the BlackBerry Curve device will be available in Singapore. Launched about two months back in the US, the Curve is the company's lightest full QWERTY handset and comes with features which will also appeal to the non-business user.

Aside from push email and other regular productivity features, the Curve also comes with a 2-megapixel camera and a memory expansion slot. The media player application has also been enhanced and can be used in tandem with its 3.5mm audio mini-jack to replace an MP3 player.

The BlackBerry Pearl was the first device from RIM to feature the trackball navigator in place of a directional pad. Being the third in this series of consumer-centric BlackBerry handsets, the Curve also adopts that.

The Curve will be launched in India, Australia, Hong Kong and Singapore in the Asia-Pacific region with more countries to follow after. In Singapore, it will be on sale from two operators, SingTel and StarHub. Pricing information is currently not available.
