The Blackberry Bold 9700 & Blackberry 9000 Review

Blackberry Bold Freeware

Navigating what will and won’t work for your Blackberry is no easy task, especially if you’ve never owned a Blackberry or been thru the entire lifespan of these things.

We’ll try and keep things focused around Blackberry Bold’s only on this website and so for that purpose… There’s really only 2 types of “Freeware” that will work for you.

Generation 1 Bold – OS 4.7 Software.

I don’t know why they haven’t upgraded the bold 9000 to the new OS 5.0 yet, because it seems pretty stable and should run fine on an old 9000 but regardless at this stage 4.7 is only available on newer devices.

Generation 2 Bold – OS 5.0 Software

Available on the Bold 9700, this system appears to be slowly being rolled out to all the Blackberries in the lineup. It’s currently available on the Storm, Storm2, 8900, and a few others as they come out. Many of these apps for the 8900 will work great on a Bold 2 (Aka, 9700) however many Storm specific applications will NOT work on a Blackberry Bold 9700 as there’s a major difference between a touch screen application and a trackpad app.

Later I’ll take the time to post some resources to getting freeware for each.
