LIME, the Caribbean’s only full service telecoms provider, and Research In Motion (RIM), a global leader in wireless innovation, today announced the launch of the sleek and powerful BlackBerry
Bold
9700 smartphone, which is expected to be available in LIME stores in early February.
The new BlackBerry Bold 9700 smartphone combines an extensive array of high-end communications and multimedia features in a compact and highly refined design that will appeal to both professional and personal users.
“There is pent-up demand and great anticipation in the Caribbean market for the latest BlackBerry smartphone. The performance of this compact, highly functional handset will surely satisfy the most demanding users,” said LIME’s Chief Marketing Officer, Chris Dehring. “The BlackBerry Bold 9700 supports a broad range of personal and business applications and we offer a variety of service packages to meet all of our customers' needs.”
The BlackBerry Bold 9700 smartphone offers top-of-the-line performance, functionality and features with support for 3G HSDPA networks around the world, a next-generation (624 MHz) processor, 256 MB Flash memory, built-in GPS and Wi-Fi, a 3.2MP camera and a dazzling, high resolution display.
Cutting edge engineering and premium finishes extend to the exterior of the handset as well, with a smoothly integrated touch-sensitive trackpad and a highly tactile, distinctive, fretted keyboard. The dark chrome frame and leatherette back add to the new smartphone's sleek and elegant look, while the narrow profile, balanced weight and soft-touch sides allow it to feel incredibly comfortable in one hand.
