Research in Motion (RIM) and Vodafone are soon to bring to market the first 3G-enabled BlackBerry device, according to Reg Hardware.
The 8707v, based on the 8700 series launched last year, is said to centre on a a 312MHz Intel PXA901 processor supported by 16MB of SRAM and 64MB of Flash memory.
The handset is reckoned to be also provide quad-band (850/900/1800/1900MHz) GSM/GPRS operation, though the Reg hasn't yet been able to find out if EDGE support (with features such as real-time video streaming) is included as it is with standard 8700-series BlackBerry models.
