The newest WiFi Blackberry devices--the 8820 and 8320--are similar in having dual-network cellular and WiFi capabilities, but there are significant differences in the networks and the way that the hand-held machines move between them. The AT&T 8820 is an enterprise-ready platform, with few of the consumer-ready add-ons seen in many recent smartphones. For this reason, the 8820's WiFi is ideal for enterprise-specific applications or for simple web browsing. The 8320 Curve from T-Mobile, on the other hand, is full of features like a 2 megapixel camera and stereo audio jack. It's also designed to link with T-Mobile hotspots found at Starbucks and thousands of other locations. Two approaches, two sets of features, but one platform. It's the Blackberry way.
