Research in Motion are not just bringing you the BlackBerry Pearl Flip in black, but now BlackBerry fans can from today purchase the BlackBerry Pearl 8220 in a gorgeous red.

The Pearl Flip 8220 has the clamshell design, and in-fact is the first BlackBerry to be designed as a clamshell, if you want to get your hands on one the Pearl will set you back $149.99 for either colour, with the phone you will get a two year contract.

Well the Pearl has to live up to the BlackBerry name with the BlackBerry Bold just released and the BlackBerry Storm coming in November, each phone has its own qualities that shine through, the clamshell design is clearly what makes this BlackBerry Pearl flip shine above the rest.

Although if I had to chose between the BlackBerry Storm and the BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220 I would go for the Storm without a doubt, but for the colour conscious maybe now with the availability of the Pearl in the snazzy red this is the smartphone for you.
