Sep 04, 2008 News

Kingston, Jamaica, and Waterloo, Canada – Digicel and Research In Motion (RIM) yesterday announced the addition of the BlackBerry Bold smartphone to its extensive range of handsets.
The BlackBerry Bold is the first BlackBerry to support tri-band high-speed networks around the world and comes with integrated GPS and Wi-Fi, as well as a rich set of multimedia capabilities.
In short, Digicel noted via release, customers “will benefit from a super-fast phone with all the whistles and bells needed to work, play and communicate wherever they are”.
According to the communication giant, the BlackBerry Bold boasts:
– Superior Performance – with more memory than ever before, making it easier to download email attachments, stream video or load web pages. Blackberry Bold supports the renowned BlackBerry productivity applications including phone, email, messaging, organizer, and browser. Customers can also talk on the phone while sending and receiving emails, accessing the web, and downloading Word, Excel or PowerPoint files and editing them directly on the device using the preloaded DataViz Documents to Go software.
– Desktop-style Web Pages – giving users an on-the-go web browsing experience with desktop-style depiction
– Rich Multimedia – featuring a 2-megapixel camera with video recording capabilities, built-in flash and digital three levels zoom. The media player can display pictures and slideshows quickly, play movies in full screen mode, and manage an entire music collection. For customers managing their music collection with iTunes, the new BlackBerry Media Sync application provides a simple way to sync iTunes digital music collections.
– First Class Phone – featuring a new acoustic design that increases the size of the phone’s audio, improving listening quality and clarity.  It also features noise cancellation technology that offsets background noise, a powerful speaker phone and support for polyphonic, mp3 and MIDI ring tones. The BlackBerry Bold allows you to roam anywhere in the world at the fastest speeds with its quad-band EDGE and tri-band HSDPA functionalities.
– Robust Email and Messaging – giving users the industry’s leading mobile messaging solution. It works with BlackBerry Enterprise Server, enabling advanced security and IT administration within IBM Lotus Domino, Microsoft Exchange and Novell GroupWise environments, as well as BlackBerry Professional Software for small businesses. It also works with BlackBerry Internet Service, giving users access to up to 10 work or personal email accounts (including most popular ISP email accounts), and the BlackBerry Unite! software for SOHO and home users.
The company noted that certain music files may not be supported, including files that contain digital rights management technologies, and it was also highlighted that customers would be required to check with their service provider for roaming services.
