The BlackBerry 8707v is the first 3G BlackBerry device to market. It's a derivative of the ubiquitous BlackBerry 8700 series of devices, and it appears to have the same functionality as the 8700, just with added support for UMTS 2100 3G data.
The "v" in "8707v" indicates that this is a Vodafone device. Vodafone Germany are the first region to announce that they will have the 8707v available in the very near future (hence the QWERTZ keyboard pictured). It's likely that other operators will follow suit, but because this is a UMTS 2100 device it won't work with 3G in North America (although like the other 8700 series devices, it's a quad-band GSM phone too).
