RIM has decided to take the plunge and build a clam-shell flip-phone version of their popular Blackberry device. It doesn’t look like you’ll really be missing anything from the pictures we’ve had a chance to see as the phone still sports the Blackberry’s standard SureType keyboard and what seems to be a really sharp looking LCD screen.

If you’ve been looking for a Blackberry but have been turned off by the huge size or awkwardness of the smaller devices, this might be reason enough for you to take the plunge.

We’ll keep you updated with additional information as we find more out about the launch of the new Blackberry Kickstart.
