Cingular 7100gAfter much delays with the release of the new Blackberry 7100g it is now available to order from Cingular’s website. The new Blackberry handheld was slated to be released on February 14th but was pulled from the website and made only available to corporate consumers. The Blackberry 7100g is the latest offering from RIM which provides a high resolution 240×260 LCD screen, bluetooth, and quad-band GSM/GPRS. Retail price is set at $249.99 with rebates on a 2 year contract.

    “Additional features include free Instant Messenger client”????
    Where did you get this info from? I bought mine a couple of weeks ago directly from Cingular after complaining that I was going to cancel my ATT Wireless service and find another carrier that had this phone. They came through and i had mine last week. But i cannot find anything on IM. The IM client I downloaded as a test from Handango isn’t very good and I am looking for alternatives. I haven’t found anything online about a separate IM client.

    But i love the phone!

    Hi Dave,

    That is our mistake that we mentioned the Instant Messanger program. It’s actually only available on the 7100t but with RIM’s new partnership with AOL and Yahoo! free instant messanging will be coming soon to most Blackberry handhelds.

    Thanks,
    Gillian

    Got mine last week, Cingular tech can’t set up my account so its just a cell phone right now… the retail stores can’t help you….. they haven’t even seen the phone yet. There must be a better cell phone company out there some where?
