CTIA is in full swing and there has been a lot of news from manufacturers and carriers alike. Tivo and RIM are now parterning to bring media to the Blackberry, that Blackberry flip phone is finally official, and more in today's round-up...

Tivo and RIM have announced a partnership to bring more media to the Blackberry platform. So far, it sounds like they'll have an application for the Blackberry out later this year, but this bears keeping an eye on - the ability to bring more of your media from your home with you on the go is always something we like to see.

RIM officially announced the Blackberry Pearl Flip 8220 at CTIA. This will be the first flip-style Blackberry and it will sport their SureType keyboard, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a camera. RIM has stated it will be available this fall.

Sprint announced a number of things at CTIA, one of which is a new user interface feature called "One Click" that is meant to streamline the interface on their non-smartphone offerings. Sprint also introduced a number of new phones for their network: the HTC Touch Diamond, HTC Touch Pro, LG Lotus, Samsung Highnote, Samsung Rant, and others. They have been busy, haven't they?

More rumors on the HTC Touch HD indicate that this Windows Mobile 6.1 smartphone will have a WVGA display and size to rival that of the iPhone 3G, a 5-megapixel camera, GPS, and more. We're looking forward to hearing more about this one!
