Blackberry 9700 Bold
Blackberry 9700 Bold
The Blackberry brand has ensconced itself in the consciousness of the business world so thoroughly that many words that would normally be used to describe the key functionalities that it offers have become redundant; if you say Blackberry, everyone knows exactly what you mean and what to expect. And a much older audience than other mobile phones usually buys Blackberry, although this is typical of all Smartphone’s in general. The result is a much more obvious presence of a community online supporting Blackberry Smartphone’s and sharing their ideas about where the platform can be taken next.
As one of the newest members of the family, the Blackberry 9700 Bold has been instantly taken up by thousands of people around the globe and it is proving once more that Blackberry Smartphone’s are still difficult to beat if you are looking for a powerful messaging phone with business at its heart. However, the Blackberry brand is currently attempting to reinvent itself as a more hip, trendy and groovy brand by using a cover of All You Need Is Love written by Liverpudlian newcomers The Beatles to feature heavily on TV ads showing the highs and lows of the exciting lives of a new generation of Blackberry owners. Anyone would be led to assume that the current owners of Blackberry are dour business types without a fun bone in their bodies. But one quick glance at the forums and community sites that support the Blackberry 9700 Bold and its stable mates will do away with that thoroughly incorrect stereotype.
One site that you will find frequently mentioned and very useful if you decide to pick up a Blackberry 9700 Bold is CrackBerry.com. This is a community site dedicated to squeezing the most out of every Blackberry handset and it has a dedicated section that deals exclusively with the 9700 Bold. To appreciate just how well used this resource is, it is worth pointing out that there is a sticky post on the board that allows users to show off their latest wallpaper creations for the 9700. This also allows other users who like the look of them to download them. So far over 760,000 people have checked out this single post and over 6000 people have made their own contributions to it. You will find that if you are in need of a bit of help with your Bold, then this will be the best place to find it. There is also an archive of free software, ring tones, wallpaper and themes which have been created within the community and which you can download to your PC and then install on your Blackberry Bold 9700. Whilst the App Store is populated by paid-for creations, the CrackBerry community generates a huge number of top quality modifications for their beloved Smartphone’s without charging a penny. It looks as if in this instance the adverts are accurate, as all you need really is love, even if that love is for an inanimate mobile phone.
If you are looking for a slightly more official place to get your fix of Blackberry 9700 Bold news and help, then the main website run by Blackberry manufacturer Research in Motion (RIM) has another invaluable resource. On top of providing basic inter-customer support via forums, the site is also kept up to date with news articles and guides that can help you to make the most of your Blackberry 9700 Bold. The inclusive nature of the whole system and the people who populate it is refreshing. You might visit the forums or community sites of other mobiles and find them poorly moderated and with a minimal user presence. This is definitely not the case with any of the Blackberry-related sites, although this is largely to do with the huge popularity of the devices.
Blackberry, like the iPhone, benefit significantly from the relatively small number of products that make up the line-up at any one time and also from the fact that in general there is a unified software platform to work from. Other much larger manufacturers have to keep many plates spinning at the same time, with large numbers of mobiles aimed at a wide audience and operating using different software. As such the service you receive can seem a little impersonal and the generation of communities is more difficult to achieve. For example, with Nokia Smartphone’s the emphasis is placed on the Symbian OS and results in plenty of good third party apps and modifications, but ones that are detached from a particular handset. The same could be said for any phone running the Android OS. For the Blackberry 9700 Bold, however, things are very different. It shares the same basic operating system as many of the other Smartphone’s in the RIM Range and as such most applications and fixes can be applied across all of the handsets rather than one or two at a time. One good example of this would be the software issues that bugged early versions of the Blackberry OS 5, which the 9700 Bold uses. The community at CrackBerry was able to come up with a software patch to fix this quicker than RIM did and with the help of members of that community any Bold owners who were suffering from the effects could have the full functionality of their phones restored to them.
