RIM's BlackBerry 9800 and its tablet companion won't come side by side but could together bet available this year, insiders said this evening with a handful of new details [sub. required]. The 9800, a multi-touch QWERTY slider, was already known to be shipping before the end of the summer but should have a device-wide search as one of its BlackBerry OS 6.0 features. Most put it on AT&T's network and tentatively as soon as June, although the iPhone 4 launch on June 24 makes July or August more likely.
