This BlackBerry Bold 9900 is a milestone in the history of RIM. The Canadian manufacturer has for the first time dared to cast a touch screen one of its models to traditional keyboard. A winning bet? Since the release of the first ever BlackBerry Bold in 2008, this range has established itself as the ultimate in the Canadian manufacturer RIM. He has been trying, with all relative success, with tactile models. Bold but the essence of what is demanded by the most demanding users of BlackBerry. It is in a particularly gloomy economic environment for the manufacturer that this Bold 9900 is born.
Yet it is a fundamentally important model for RIM since this is the first Smartphone to combine the iconic QWERTY keyboard to a touch screen. Therefore a risky but necessary is to avoid falling further behind. With such an important issue, RIM has put the dishes in the large for its new Bold 9900 is at the height. This Smartphone comes with the format of the first Bold, 9000, a slightly larger size than the two previous Bolds (9700 and 9780) with dimensions of 115 x 66 x 10.5 mm 130 grams. The screen is the much more extensive with a diagonal of 2.8 inches (640 x 480 pixels), always in tune with the canons dictated by the first Bold.
