For Blackberry lovers, this month is very exciting month. Research in Motion
(RIM) is launching two new handset very soon - the Blackberry Strom and
Blackberry Bold 9700 . Both are aimed at different markets and are very much
improved over their predecessors. The Blackberry Storm 2 as we know is the
second-generation Storm handset and comes with BBM 5.0 and an improved
touch-sensitive screen, much better than the original Storm. And some of the
features of the Blackberry 9700 are much the same as the Storm 2,
3.2-megapixel camera, 3G support and Wi-Fi. The difference end there, as the
Bold 2 is not a touch screen and is aimed at a different user, as the handset
is more for business use. People can’t wait for them coming. Now, Verizon has
confirmed that the Blackberry Storm 2 has been headed to the carrier on
October 28th. But it is also a secret which date the Blackberry 9700 will be
published. In this article I have summarized both of them devices’ features
and what are their relative and essential programs.

That’s the simple information I have got about the two phones. In many other
aspects, both have the same characteristics, for example, Device Security
(Password protection, Screen lock, Sleep mode, Optional support for S/MIME),
Wireless email, Organizer, Browser, and Notification etc.
For multimedia, Blackberry Phone is advanced media player for videos, music
and pictures. Blackberry Strom2 supports video formats including MPEG4,
H.263, H.264, WMV and audio formats including MP3, AAC, AAC+, WMA, WMA
ProPlus, and so on. While Blackberry Bold 9700 supports video formats, such
as, Divx 4, Divx 5/6, H.263, H.264, WMV3, MPEG4 and so on, and audio formats
such as 3GP, MP3, WMA9,WMA9 Pro/WMA 10, MIDI, AMR-NB, and so on . Meanwhile,
I find the Blackberry could not support all of video or audio files such as
AVI file, FLV file and so on. So I search this problem on the Google and find
powerful software to let me enjoy wonderful experience with Blackberry Phone

Now, the Blackberry Strom has lunched on the market and the Blackberry Bold
9700 will be published soon. Both have been given considerable thought on the
market. Minor changes having a major impact, give them little bit more
standing in comparison to his predecessor and his current competitors. Under
in this area, the mobile phone technology develops quickly and the mobile
phone competition is more and more severe. As a blackberry lover, I hope they
can take the good sales performance
