This week the world has seen several BlackBerry phones from the future. The phones that you’ll get to see in this post include the BlackBerry Torch 2, Storm 3, yet another Curve and last but not least, BlackBerry Dakota. We know about storms, curves and torches but Dakota is a different phone in a sense that it brings the non-slide qwerty keyboard with a touch-screen as well. Here come the details:
I know quite a few people who love to have a touch-screen phone that has a keypad as well, and they are still not fond of slide form factor. For all those who need such a phone, BlackBerry Dakota has been a best kept secret. I actually love slide phones, especially BlackBerry Torch, but Dakota is still tempting. BlackBerry Dakota got leaked and the rumor spread last week and the rumored specs are really mouth watering.

- Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE
