What’s this? The white Torch, after being released last week on AT&T, has migrated north, along with its younger, more attractive cousin (sister?) the newly-released 9780. Keeping in mind that Rogers has just boosted its Torch price to $229.99 on a 3-year plan, this might give new users the incentive again to go with Rogers [...]

[Click here for mobile friendly viewing] Here it is, folks: BlackBerry 6 on the Bold 9700! We’ve been waiting a long time for this, and it was worth the wait. Sure, it’s not as smooth as on the Torch or the 9780 but is allows the millions of current 9700 users a taste of what’s [...]

(BlackBerry 6 on left, OS 5 on Bold 9700 on right) I think every Bold 9700 owner wants BlackBerry 6, just because. He can’t quite figure out why, but it’s just better; those smooth transitions, the touchpad-sensitive gestures, the WebKit browser. I’ve seen the Bold 9780 and it is indeed an upgrade from the 9700, [...]

This is pretty ironic. I was about to write a rant on how RIM has been pushing BBM so hard lately but has yet but has yet to add any game-changing features, but then I read that RIM announced the BBM Social Platform today at DevCon 2010. In layman’s terms, RIM is making tools available for 3rd [...]

BlackBerry’s annual Developers Conference or “DevCon” is now underway in San Francisco, California. Of the many interesting topics being discussed, here are some highlights thus far: - Over 115million BlackBerry devices sold to date (over 12 million just this past quarter) - #1 smartphone in North America - 35 million users for their BlackBerry App [...]

Such a unique beast this 9670 clamshell is and hate it or love it… it’s on its way. Engadget posted this picture of the notorious clamshell having just gained FCC approval, meaning it could see a launch on Sprint and Verizon right around the corner, with a rumored Canadian launch shortly thereafter. Past the atrocity that [...]

The BlackBerry Market Research Panel is back again. RIM would like everyone to fill out a brief survey to help influence future BlackBerry product decisions. The survey is not BlackBerry specific. It’s more about letting RIM know exactly what types of people are using BlackBerrys and for what purposes. The survey took me less than 5 minutes [...]

One thing I can say from experience is that BlackBerry knows how to throw down a fantastic party! Yes, TIFF just ended, and BlackBerry had proved themselves there as modern, capable sponsors, but this wasn’t TIFF (although with the amount of celebrities present, the average person was still starstruck), this was the official Canadian launch [...]

There really hasn’t been enough proven information on the BlackBerry Storm 3 to blog about . Yes, it has been talked about around the forums, but not enough concrete evidence to bring truth to any of it. The device itself is shrouded in secrecy. Only a handful of executives at RIM have ever really seen [...]

We’ve seen a bit of the BlackBerry 9670 smartphone at this point and earlier this month we heard that it will be named the Style when it hits the market. One of Mobile Syrup‘s tipsters has just pointed out that the BlackBerry Style could actually be hitting Bell and Telus’ CDMA networks in the first [...]
