BlackBerry 8820 arrives in Spain

Orange of Spain is blessed as they have just received the WiFi-enabled BlackBerry 8820, bringing this quad-band GSM coverage, EDGE connectivity, and integrated GPS navigation to the Spanish armada. The Spanish version differs, however, by coming with UMA support out of the box for use with Orange’s Spanish UMA network. This shows that the BlackBerry 8820 is most probably compatible with T-Mobile’s @Home service as well. Guess this is one where the Europeans have gone one up on us…I will keep you updated in case there is breaking news of the 8820 making its way Stateside in the near future.
