Are you a world traveler? Need to use a cell phone in another country but have CDMA service at home? Several phones now work on both GSM and CDMA and the BlackBerry 8830 World Edition is a nice choice for BlackBerry users who travel the world.
Laptop Magazine has a nice review of the BlackBerry 8830 World phone. Although the 8830 lacks GPS functionality, it handles the email in typical BlackBerry fashion.
"The 8830 World Edition should look familiar to BlackBerry aficionados, with its 8800-styled trackball and QWERTY keyboard, but its executive-chic metallic-silver body more closely resembles the Curve. At just 4.6 ounces and 4.4 x 2.6 x 0.6 inches, it easily slips into a shirt or jacket pocket. Navigating menus was a cinch, thanks to the silky-smooth glide of the trackball."
