Description:

Compatible with Cingular cell phone service, the Java-based BlackBerry 6280 adds GSM 800 (850) service for full, tri-band communication (worldwide), and offers a smaller and lighter body than previous incarnations of this wireless handheld, as well as upgrades to memory for greater data storage. E-mail and SMS improvements, such as wireless email synchronization and integrated attachment viewing, combined with the wireless phone, Web browser, and organizer applications that BlackBerry users are already accustomed to, round out the 6280’s offerings.

The BlackBerry 6280 is powered by a 32-bit microprocessor and uses an embedded RIM wireless modem. It offers 16 MB of flash memory plus 2 MB of SRAM for storage. The thumb-operated track wheel and backlit QWERTY keyboard make messaging quick and easy. The BlackBerry 6280 also has an easy-to-read screen with an intuitive icon-based menu and a display that can be set by the user to 8, 10, 12, or 15 lines. A keyboard lock and password protection are included for security.

The package includes BlackBerry Desktop Software, which enables management of the exchange between the 6280 and your desktop PC email account. You'll also get a USB cable for charging and synchronizing with a PC, a travel charger, and a swivel holster and handheld stand. This compact BlackBerry handheld measures 4.4 by 2.9 by 0.8 inches and weighs 4.8 ounces. Its rechargeable Lithium-ion battery is rated at 5 hours of talk time and 12 days of standby time.
