Finally, all ye faithful Rogers BlackBerry 9700 users, your day hath cometh. OS6 has received the beloved gold star and been approved for use.

A buddy of mine just asked me why there are currently no BlackBerry Bold devices on AT&T’s website. I quickly took a look and came up with the same result. I also entered through a direct link, but when I clicked to purchase, I was kicked back to AT&T’s homepage. I then put a call [...]

Yesterday, Mobilicity announced that they had become the first Canadian Carrier to offer an upgrade to BlackBerry 6 for the BlackBerry smartphones in their lineup, the Bold 9700 and the Curve 3G (a.k.a. 9300), that do not ship with BlackBerry 6 already installed on the devices.

The Sena UltraSlim cases are the thinnest series of leather cases ever designed for any mobile device. If you’re looking for a stylish leather pocket pouch-like case for your smartphone without the bulk, this may be the case for you. As you can see, I decided to be a little adventurous and go with red. [...]

Over the past few months, many of us 9700 users gradually lost all hope of an OS6 leak for our beloved devices before the release of the 9780. It was a thorn in the side to keep seeing OS6 leaks for various other BlackBerry devices while we just sat the sidelines. In the midst of [...]

The BlackBerry 9700 is a thin phone. I find it to be largely the most comfortable, pocketable phone currently on the market. Yes, there are more powerful devices out there: the iPhone 4 has recently become the de facto leader in industrial build quality and design. So I prefer to wear the 9700 naked. I [...]

Let’s get this straight: for the past few days there have been some conflicting stories regarding the wide availability of the white version of the Rogers BlackBerry 9700. I can confirm that Rogers stores are starting to stock the device and the Eaton Centre location has it for purchase today, at $149.99 on a 3-year [...]

One of our loyal tipsters sent this screen shot of the White Blackberry Bold 9700 showing up in Rogers upgrade system, though the phone’s existence has still yet to be officially acknowledged by Rogers, we are sure that is just around the corner. The pricing at $449.99 is without data-added on, but we are told [...]
