It has been confirmed that you can now walk into your Cingular store and acquire one of the hottest new Smart Phones - the Blackberry Pearl.

Cingular's variant of the Pearl -- a device already launched on T-Mobile -- will be the first carrier-launched device in the US to feature TeleNav Maps, providing users with static maps (that is, no GPS link) and driving directions free of charge. If you have a Bluetooth GPS receiver, you will also be able to use the dynamic TeleNav navigation services already offered on several other Cingular devices. Other than this Pearl's push-to-talk capability, the spec sheet reads very much like its T-Mobile predecessor -- 260 x 240 display, 1.3 megapixel cam, SureType, and more for $200 on a two-year contract.
