BlackBerry Bold Touch 9900 Review

This is an appealing handset that does all the usual BlackBerry jobs well and makes a really good attempt at social networking and web facilities

Blackberry Bold Touch 9900 review

RIM looks to tempt the masses with the touchscreen Bold

BlackBerry Bold Touch 9900 review round up

RIM hasn't really made any real waves in the last couple of years with its smartphones. They've been steady, consistent and fairly middle of the road. The PlayBook changed this somewhat, but RIM's latest flagship device, the BlackBerry Bold Touch, is...
