Those of you who are missing out on CEATAC Japan should enjoy this shot of Sharp’s new NetWalker PC-Z1. The photo isn’t much to give it scale, but let’s just say it is the missing link between smartphone and netbook.

It has a five inch touchscreen and full QWERTY keyboard. It also has an optical pointer, 4 gigabytes of memory, microSD memory, 10 hour battery life, and a USB port. It is scheduled for release in late October for a price of $500, but it will probably be a Japanese only release.

It’s probably too late for RIM to launch these white smartphones right here. Instead of the Bold and the Curve 8520 you could very well choose a Bold 2 or a Storm 2. However the white versions will be also available at some point in the very near future. The white Bold 9000 will be available from AT&T starting October 18 while the white Curve 8520 should already be available in T-Mobile stores.

There are no prices available for the white Bold but the white Curve will cost $129.99 after a $170 instant discount and with a new contract. Anyone excited about this angelic BlackBerry smartphones?
