 AT&T and Research In Motion (RIM) today announced the launch of the BlackBerry Pearl 8110 smartphone, which includes built-in GPS support for location-based applications and services. Combined with navigation and mapping applications such as AT&T Navigator, the handset provides turn-by-turn voice and on-screen directions with 3-D moving maps that can be used in vehicles or while walking. AT&T Navigator also alerts users through voice and on-screen prompts to traffic slowdowns and incidents along their programmed travel route, and it provides users with the option to choose alternative route. AT&T Navigator requires a separate subscription of $9.99 a month.

Furthermore, the Pearl 8110 features a media player, 2-megapixel camera, a 3.5mm stereo headset jack, microSD/SDHC memory slot, high-speed USB and Bluetooth 2.0 with support for headsets, car kits, stereo headsets and other Bluetooth accessories.
