We've got our hands on the all new Blackb=Berry 8120: yep, the brand spanking new Pearl.

Officially unveiled today, RIM's super addictive follow up to their uber successful emailer retains the same sharp, mobile looks, but crams in a whole load of new features.

The camera's been upgraded to a standard 2-megapixel affair and it’s the first Blackberry ever to pack in a video recorder too. So now you can really get down to some proper procrastination when you're supposed to be firing off missives on the train.

The recently launched BlackBerry Facebook app is right on the front page, so you don't have to faff around in the browser trying to upload your pictures. Just snap away and load in three quick steps.

Web wise, you'll find a proper cursor in the browser, so you can scroll around pages quicker and easier than before. The trackball has also been made more sensitive, so zipping about docs, mails and the net is also a breeze.

Like its beefier cousins, the Pearl now has BlackBerry Maps, but you can download Google ones straight to the phone if they don't take your fancy.

Best of all though, this is the first BlackBerry to pack WiFi, meaning really quick access when you hit a hot spot.

We're dead impressed. Check out our gallery and exclusive video for a close-up look.
