BlackBerryOnyxTMo

Al Sacco over at CIO, scored an interesting picture from T-Mobile today. Looks like T-Mobile decided to “accidentally” share the first press shots of the BlackBerry Bold 9700, aka Onyx. This hot new addition to the Bold family is set to feature a hotter QWERTY keyboard, trackpad navigation, and an overall compact more design. It seems that Al Sacco did not receive an official NDA from T-Mobile before sharing the picture. Lucky! Anyway check out the blurp from the T-Mo PR rep:

“The BlackBerry ‘Onyx’ sports a premium experience and design with a high-gloss black finish and leather grain detail on the back. Boasting features such as high-speed 3G Web browsing, Wi-Fi calling, visual voicemail and support for corporate and personal e-mail options, the ‘Onyx’ will satisfy all your on-the-go needs. Also the phone comes preloaded with mobile applications from BlackBerry App World, including Amazon MP3 store for quick and easy music downloads and TeleNav GPS Navigator for turn-by-turn directions.”

Unfortunately no actual release was shared, however its expected to launch late this year. Pricing and the official release shall come soon… Stay tuned.

iskin-bb-overview

iSkin has been known to design some really nice iPhone cases, but now they’ve expanded their lineup by introducing cases for BlackBerry. iSkin has introduced the Vibe series for the BlackBerry Bold, Curve 8900, and Storm. Unfortunately no love for the BlackBerry Tour 9630 or Curve 8520 just yet. We’ve been checking out these cases for the past few weeks and so far we’re very impressed! They fit like a glove, and are designed to protect for sure. Included in the packaging is both the skin and a mirrored screen protector for maximum protection and privacy.

T-Mobile BlackBerry Bold 9700 Spotted in an Airport?

t-mobile-blackberry-9700

CrackBerry Kevin has got some serious luck. Back before the Curve 8900 was released he managed to spot three of them in an Airport in NYC, while traveling. This time around Kevin managed to spot a T-Mobile branded BlackBerry 9700 on his way home from vacation. Seriously? That’s some luck. Anyway as you can see the T-Mobile branded 9700 is running on OS 5.0.0.169. Kevin says the device feels very solid and production ready… Maybe that means we will see a launch very soon? Stay tuned.

BlackBerry Onyx 9020 spotted in the Wild Sporting Leather Back!

Onyx_2

New pictures have been found online of the un-released BlackBerry Onyx 9020. The site FeedBerry is showing off the Onyx (with trackball, not trackpad) sporting a leather back similar to the BlackBerry Bold. Could this mean that RIM has decided to make the Onyx part of the Bold family? We don’t really have any new details on the Onyx, although its expected to be a slim 3G/Quadband GSM device with a 3.2 megapixel camera, large 480×360 resolution display, Wi-Fi, and GPS. We do expect the Onyx to launch sometime this year, however an official date is no where to be found. See the rest of the pictures at FeedBerry.

The BlackBerry Speaker Test – Comparing Tour, Bold, Storm, Curve 8900

Here is a great video which Ronen from BerryReview found. This video compares all the latest BlackBerry models (Curve 8900, Bold, Storm 9530, and Tour 9630) and their speakers to see which one sounds the best. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a video quite like this, the creator rates them side by side using the same music demo. It appears that the Bold may still have the best speaker, followed by the hot new Tour. Check out the video for youself and let us know what you think…

Inspiring and Artistic Themes To Dress Your BlackBerry By NinjaThemes

Beach2

There are some really nice themes around and quite a few theme designers, and there are some really beautiful ones from NinjaThemes. There are twenty three available, some are free and some have a small price, but they’re all worth it. I’m going to feature a few to show, but I know you’re going to be impressed.

The themes by this designer are creative, vibrant, and very attention-grabbing. You can see the thought in each theme, and as I always suggest, please do a battery pull after the install. The themes are for the BlackBerry Curve 83xx series, Curve 8900, and the Bold 9000. There are various designs and styles, and something for everyone.

carbon-slick-bold-8900-theme-300x200[1]

This theme above is Carbon Slick for the BlackBerry Curve 83xx, the8900 and the Bold. It is available through the BlackBerry Sync Store and it’s FREE. It features a hidden today menu and a customizable bottom dock. The reds and the blacks are very vibrant and intense. Perfect match for a black phone, or one with a red case…pure slickness.

Beach

Beach2

This is the Beach Bum for the 9000 only. It’s vibrant and you can almost feel the waves and hear the seagulls in the background. Beach Bum is available in the BlackBerry Sync Store for $2.99. Features of this theme are clear iPhone-like icons, hidden beach wallpapers, and a hidden today (scroll over the icons for the list).  I love beach themes, it gives me a few minutes to close my eyes and vacation for a few seconds. Relaxing and beautiful.

Purple

This one is Purple Haze Astralis~ and it’s for the Curve 83xx series with 4.5 OS. It features a sky filled with beautiful stars to gaze at. Purple Haze Astralis~ is available in the BlackBerry Sync Store for $3.99. This theme features beatiful stars with theme colors that compliment the wallpaper, iPhone icons, today theme with messages and calendar, and the bottom dock is customizable. These sort of themes are nice, and remind you of clear sky nights. It’s a great way to have the universe in your hands.

Watchmen

Watchmen2

This theme is the Ultimate Watchmen Theme for the Curve 8330 4.5 OS only. If you’re a fan of the Watchmen, guess what? This one is FREE. You can download the Ultimate Watchmen Theme for FREE from the BlackBerry Sync Store. This theme features Today and Bottom theme, colorful watchmen wallpapers from the movie, the 6-icon bottom dock is customizable, and they are Bold-like icons. Great theme if you love the comics and movie and want to show your love for the Watchmen! All that’s missing is My Chemical Romance’s “Desolation Row”.

iHeart

iHeart2

This theme is the iHeart theme for the ladies out there. It’s girly and sweet, for the Curve 83xx 4.5 OS only. You can download the iHeart theme for FREE from the BlackBerry Sync Store. There are iPhone icons and a customizable bottom dock. There’s pink icons, pink menus, pink wallpapers, it’s totally pink, and very iPhone-like in style. You can make everyday Valentines with this theme.

Neu

And this theme is Neu. It is for the Bold 9000. This one is design by Lilhaloshaka and the theme by Ninja. This theme is slick, minimalistic, easy on the eyes. The icons on the homescreen are user defined. I like this theme and the way it feels fresh and crisp. You can download the Neu theme for FREE from the BlackBerry Sync Store.

These are just a few of the wonderful colorful 32 themes available, and I encourage you to check them out from the BlackBerry Sync Store and you’ll find even more. I would have posted them all, but there’s so many to choose from. Have you tried any of the NinjaThemes themes and what do you think of them? Please share with us, we’d like to know which ones are your favorite.
