Our pal Kevin over at CrackBerry has pulled off another impressive feat; he has managed to get his hands on a 8220 Kickstart! This leak is quite out of left field considering the last time we saw the device was a month ago tomorrow. But who really cares? The Bold is almost here for many of us so we need something else to look forward to spending our money on. (Even if it is a purely aimed at teenage girls consumers.)

And straight from the man who has the Kickstart, these are the latest specs:

  • 82xx Series
  • Clamshell
  • Quad-band, with GSM, GPRS, EDGE
  • 8210 has GPS, 8220 has WiFi
  • OS version 4.6 (model shown is running 4.6.0.59)
  • Updated SureType keyboard
  • 240 x 320 internal LCD (Pearl has 240×260)
  • 160 x 128 external LCD
  • 2-megapixel camera
  • 3.5mm headset jack
  • Externam microSD slot

To keep things fair, we’ve got a few more photos and then a link to the review.
