MobileBurn has put together detailed review of the BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220 with pictures and a video.

The BlackBerry Pearl was a breakout device for RIM. It was the first time the company took the more traditional form factor allowed by its SureType 20 key keypad and packaged it in a small, glossy, and consumer friendly device. In short, it was the break out device for RIM.

The Pearl Flip is set to be that same kind of device. It takes all of the good features of the BlackBerry Pearl line and stuffs them into the folder form factor that the North American market loves so dearly. The new form factor also allows the Pearl Flip to offer something no other BlackBerry has in the past: a secondary display. It all looks fantastic, but how does it actually work?
