BlackBerry 8820 Connectivity and Communication

Connectivity and Communication

A strong suit of the 8820 is its comprehensive connectivity options for the time, including GSM across 850, 900, 1800, and 1900 MHz bands, supporting GPRS and EDGE for data. The inclusion of Wi-Fi 802.11b/g was notable, enhancing its global communication capabilities. Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP allowed for wireless audio, aligning with its modern corporate audience. GPS functionality enabled location services, but the absence of a radio was consistent with its focus on productivity over entertainment.
