Hands-On Video Of The BlackBerry 9670 Running BlackBerry 6
May 8th
YouTube link for Mobile viewing
We’ve got a nice little exclusive for you, today. A tipster has sent our way some juicy video showcasing the latest build of BlackBerry 6 running on the Bold 9670.
From the first leaked shot till now, the 9670 has increasingly become a point of contention amongst BlackBerry users: what is its purpose? What phone is it meant to replace? Why, oh why, did RIM choose this awkward form factor to further its gains into the mainstream smartphone market? Because, as you can see, the BlackBerry 9670 isn’t nearly as ugly as we once thought it to be. In fact, it seems kind of…cute.
But, more importantly, this is the first live look of BlackBerry 6 running on a non-touch device. While it looks incredibly polished, and, indeed, usable, there doesn’t seem to be a whole lot differentiating itself from the latest OS5 builds. While that may change before release, the improvements seem largely aesthetic. It’s nice to see the home screen more customizable, and some graphics added to the Settings menu, but overall this is the BlackBerry OS we know and love. New users may find it more intuitive, but veterans will know exactly what to do.
What do you think? Is this the game changer RIM is hoping for? From the looks of it, probably not, but there is a lot more BlackBerry 6 to delve in to.
Enjoy.

…say hello to the Blackberry Magnum Prototype
Feb 15th
On this holiday Monday in Toronto (Family day…yes we rock) I was thinking to myself, what can I put up that will grab my readers attention? Then, it came to me. Since my site re-launch last week I haven’t done justice to the pictures that gave me notoriety. There is really no need to do a hands-on review, because frankly 85k youtube hits can’t be wrong, you all have seen it. So instead I figure ill repost the pictures here and let your comments do the talking. So without further ado, here are the original, NON Photoshopped pictures that were posted about a month ago.
If anyone is still unsure what the Blackberry Magnum actually is let me explain it to you. The device is a long awaited hybrid of what all Blackberry nerds alike have wanted to see come out of Waterloo, ON. Suretouch screen ala Blackberry Storm series device crossed with the former Blackberry flagship device (and 1st North American released 3G Blackberry) the Bold 9000 and all its QWERTY/3G goodness. Though the project was scrapped in its very early stages for what’s now known as the “Dakota”, which instead of taking after the Bold’s form factor rather follows the styling of the recently released and new flagship device the Blackberry Bold 9700, with a few new features including “Liquid Lens” technology. This is probably the most anticipated device to be released this year.
If you have any other questions regarding the device that haven’t been clarified already please feel free to leave a comment, as I check them (and respond) regularly. Otherwhise, enjoy the rest of the pictures.
Hope you’ve enjoyed this re-cap. Remember to follow @thecellularguru for all the latest Cellular News!
Leaked OS 5.0.0.497 for the Blackberry Storm2 9520
Feb 15th
Well, Storm2 users you are definitely in luck. It’s been a while since an OS for your beloved device has been leaked. BBleaks posted this one, but keep in mind there is no installer and this is just the OS files. You’ll have to put these in the proper folders on your PC before installing on your device, so if you don’t know what you’re doing, wait a few hours and I’m sure someone will release a version with an installer. Remember to keep in mind the password to the archive is 2mrotS.
