  • Bluetooth
  • speakerphone
  • Yahoo! IM, AOL IM and ICQ
  • Java
  • 240×260 pixel display with 65,000 colors

The BlackBerry 7100t is selling for $199 after a $100 mail-in rebate. A new service activation is required for the price. A similar device is shipping from Vodafone in Europe, it's called the BlackBerry 7100v.
