RIM flips clamshell Crackberry

UNCONFIRMED RUMOURS of a clamshell RIM Blackberry phone have been scudding about for a bit now but, what look like genuine photos of the new device, reportedly codenamed Kickstart, have appeared on boygeniusreport.com.

Head over there to see a bunch of pics of the silver-grey beastie in its resplendent glory.

The flipping phone has a Suretype keyboard, the now familiar pearlish trackball, a small external LCD, and a decent sized intenal LCD, as well as a camera.

No reliable specs were available but we reckon the Kickstart is a bit on the podgy side to set the push email phone market on fire. µ
