BLACKBERRY STYLE/OXFORD LAUNCHING OCTOBER 31 ON SPRINT

RIM hasn't given up on the clamshell form factor.  RIM and Sprint are due to launch the Blackberry Style/Oxford on October 31.  The device will retail for $99 on contract after rebates and discounts, $400 off contract, and come in grey with a purple version to follow closely.  There is some confusion over the official name.  Some sources are insisting the Blackberry will retain the Style name, while others state it will change to Oxford.

The mobile phone will have Blackberry 6, a 5MP camera and full QWERTY keyboard with track-pad. [Engadget]
