The FCC has posted approval documents for another 7100 series phone, this time the 7100i for Nextel and other iDEN networks. Design wise the 7100i matches the other 7100 series phones except for a whip style antenna.

Features of the BlackBerry 7100i include:

• 240×260 65K color LCD
• 32MB memory
• Bluetooth
• DirectConnect Walkie-Talkie

No word on when the 7100i will ship, but Nextel is definitely the carrier to watch.
