Blackberry Bold 9700 announced

The Blackberry Bold gets a nice upgrade with the newer Bold 9700 model which is expected to be released by next month. If last month’s Blackberry Curve 8520 isn’t too equipped for your needs, the Blackberry Bold 9700 has it.

No indication what processing power is inside but it could be the same as the BB Bold 9000 at 624 MHz.

    love my blackberry bold, have to agree the trackball gets annoying at times if ur finger is moist or wet or something something gets stuck inside but software overall is great.

    Blackberry is the king of emails and communications. There is no other phone on the market that has a better keyboard than the berry. BBM is a huge selling point as well and it is the most secure device you can own of any cell phone (I wonder why the president owns one, as well as mega corporations like Boeing and even executive officers from companies like Google and Apple use blackberry)
