The BlackBerry Pearl 8100 was one or RIM’s best selling devices and it looks they are coming back for round 2 with an update. Pics have surfaced of the upcoming Pearl 9100… this has a codename of “Striker”. Gone is the trackball and the trackpad has been installed. The 3G Pearl 9100 looks like a shrunken Bold 9700 all the way around except with no QWERTY keyboard but RIM’s SureType.
No word on when this is launching or the price point. You can probably bet it’ll be around the $0.00 on a 3-year and that all the Canadian carriers will be picking this one up.
