Verizon Wireless today introduced the BlackBerry 8830 World Edition smartphone, the first global CDMA/GSM BlackBerry, and its new Global BlackBerry service, an “always-on, always connected” wireless email solution that provides access to email, contacts, calendar, organizer and the Web while on-the-go.

With the BlackBerry 8830 and Global BlackBerry, customers can place and receive voice calls from one local number for domestic and international use from more than 150 countries and send and receive emails in the United States, Canada and more than 60 countries worldwide.

With Global BlackBerry service, Verizon Wireless customers can access Global Help Desk for 24-hour customer support, seven days a week. Customers also receive a calling card for free support calls while traveling outside of the U.S. from any landline phone to technical support if the BlackBerry 8830 is lost, broken or stolen.
