Rim and T-Mobile launch Blackberry 7130g in UK

The BlackBerry 7130g provides an exceptional balance of performance, design and function for users that prefer a narrower phone-style design. It offers a premium phone experience with dedicated phone keys, speakerphone, polyphonic and MP3 ringtones, Bluetooth support, quad-band network support for international roaming and intuitive call management features such as smart dialing, conference calling, speed dialing and call forwarding. It also features SureType keyboard technology that enables quick and accurate message typing and phone dialing.

The BlackBerry 7130g features a re-engineered device platform and 64 MB flash memory, providing users with a highly responsive experience when browsing the web, viewing attachments and graphics, and running other mobile applications.

The BlackBerry 7130g also features a bright, high resolution color LCD display that incorporates intelligent light sensing technology to automatically optimize screen lighting levels for indoor and outdoor viewing.

Derek Williamson, Head of Business Marketing, T-Mobile UK says, "BlackBerry is becoming increasingly vital in helping both business customers and consumers access information when they want, where they want. T-Mobile is pleased to include the BlackBerry 7130g in our suite of BlackBerry offerings that further enable our customers to improve their productivity, reduce costs and enhance communications through the seamless access to information."

"The BlackBerry solution provides users with the flexibility to manage their communication and information needs at their convenience - whether at home, while traveling or while in the office," said Charmaine Eggberry, Vice President and Managing Director of EMEA at Research In Motion. "We are delighted to be working with T-Mobile to bring the BlackBerry 7130g to the UK for users that want uncompromised BlackBerry functionality in a sleek design."
