BlackBerry Kickstart to land with T-Mobile

Well the recently surfaced clamshell styled BlackBerry Kickstart looks like it will be heading to T-Mobile. Originally labeled as being released sometime in 2008, it has since been un-officially narrowed down to September. Of course without any official announcement that is more than subject to change, and no pricing has been mentioned or even speculated.
Otherwise the Kickstart does not look as unappealing as it did originally, based on reports it will be anodized and the back battery cover will have either a soft rubberized finish or a low gloss finish. Other features include a “next-gen” SureType keyboard, 2-megapixel camera, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, a 3.5mm headset jack, and will be quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE. The Kickstart will be running OS version 4.6 and have a 240 x 320 internal display with a 160 x 128 external display, both of which will be 16-bit color LCD’s.
This is surely a unique looking and new styled BlackBerry, hopefully some more details will make their way out before September, such as the price. Keep reading for a few more images of the Kickstart…

The specs are impressive and the design attractive. What really appeals to me is it looks smaller. What I’d like to know are the weight and the dimensions.
