The Queen Gets a White BlackBerry Bold 9700 During a Visit at RIM Headquarters

Mac Jadalhack — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 17:00:33 +0000

It looks like Queen Elizabeth visited the RIM headquarters in Waterloo yesterday, as we did hear rumors this was going to go on late last week. The tour was less than an hour according to BerryReview, and RIM’s CTO said “the Royal family uses BlackBerrys.” So at the end of the tour, which we see in the image above, Mike Lazaridis gives the queen a white BlackBerry Bold 9700, which as most of you know by now is my device of choice at the moment.

Soccer Player Ashley Cole Gets Frowned Upon After Dissing England via BlackBerry

Mac Jadalhack — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 15:06:11 +0000

I was reading some soccer league news earlier this morning and came across one that involved some BlackBerry action. I was all over it of course. The article is a bit unclear as to where he was dissing out England and its people, but it looks like the message was via BBM as they say “he posted it as a status message.” Basically Chelsea star Ashley Cole wrote “I hate England and the f***ing people!” This got out and about to lots of prosperous England fans, and Cole was then and there frowned upon. After all is said and done, Cole insists that he is totally dedicated to England but then says “I always try my hardest for England and Chelsea but the intrusion and pressure I feel is making my life hell.” Moral of the story? If you’re hating, don’t post it as a BBM status message, it’ll loop around in circles and then slap you in the face.

Ari Gold is Back on Entourage with a BlackBerry Bold 9700 & 9000

Mac Jadalhack — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 18:06:19 +0000

I just watched the first episode in season 7 of Entourage and it looks like Ari Gold is still using a BlackBerry. This time it’s two. In the past we’ve seen him always carry two devices and he still is now. Some of his older devices included the 8300 series Curve in red, the 8800, Bold 9000, and even a Palm. In this season it looks like he’s rocking an old school BlackBerry Bold 9000 still along with a Bold 9700. I was afraid to see the iPhone 4 start to show up, but never say never. Good news is that Turtle has left the iPhone and is now a Bold 9700 user. E was always using a BlackBerry, being the superb agent that he is. Johnny Drama was seen using a phone but I couldn’t really tell what it was exactly and Vince hasn’t used a phone yet, but it’s safe to say he’s a BlackBerry user as he’s been seen with one in the past. The image above is an oldie as I couldn’t get a clear snapshot of him in this last season, but if any one does, drop us a line!

Obnoxious Snookie from Jersey Shore is an Obnoxious BlackBerry User

Otoniel Bruno — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 17:52:55 +0000

The one word I think of when seeing this photo is “tacky.” Not to get very opinionated by Snookie is hated by many for being a failure on the television reality show Jersey Shore as well as being a huge embarrassment to New Jersey residents. In this picture here, we see Snookie in her artificial tan with a very loud outfit and a BlackBerry wrapped in an ugly case. I came across this on Celebrity BlackBerry Sightings and felt the need to throw this one in to let you all know Snookie is a BlackBerry user, probably using Push to Talk as seen in the pic.

Video: Drake Writes All His Music On BlackBerry

Otoniel Bruno — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 17:27:54 +0000

Browsing via BlackBerry? Sorry no mobile link!

This was something funny spotted on MTV and Mauricio posted about it earlier today. The new famous rapper Drake had a feature on MTV and in this clip you’ll see how important it is for him to write his tracks up on his BlackBerry. He pretty much says he can’t do pen and paper, and that his thumbs were made for the BlackBerry. I can’t really tell which one he’s using, but it looks to be a Bold 9700. I assume that because it is a popular BlackBerry for everyone, but celebs just love it too. It looks like one as well, but with the dark light it’s hard to tell. I’ll be surprised if he’s working a 8500 series.

Fred Durst Favors Ugly Blue Skin on BlackBerry & Likes Taking MySpace Style Photos

Collin Sorp — Fri, 28 May 2010 14:33:00 +0000

Before everyone gets confused, the “MySpace style photo” in my opinion is when you turn over your camera and take a picture of yourself (with others too as we see here). I’m not hating on the idea, but the shot does the need a name and I think it suits it best. What I am hating is the cheapo skin on his BlackBerry Bold 9000. I’m not exactly sure how old the photo is and am hoping Fred Durst has went ahead and upgraded his phone by now, as he should be eligible. So in this picture we see Fred Durst, Snoop Dogg, and some guy I don’t even know snapping a picture together at an event with lots of people around which brings me to question why Fred didn’t bother asking someone to take the photo..?

Stephanie Pratt: Not Typical Celebrity With a Bold 9700 But a Curve 8530 Instead

Mac Jadalhack — Mon, 17 May 2010 19:01:52 +0000

As we discussed this a few months ago, the BlackBerry Bold 9700 became one of the most popular han dheld devices among celebrities. Sure many other users in different industries (or none at all) are holding the 9700, but celebs do love it and that’s not exaggerating! So we cam across this image of Stephanie Pratt over at C elebrity BlackBerry Sightings where she’s seen hold a BlackBerry Curve 8530 in purple. We all know everything about the Curve 8500 series and are well aware that it is a basic device. Not to be hating on anyone carrying it, but this is the first time I’ve seen a celebrity rock a basic Berry. Perhaps she’s not taking pictures at night which calls for no need of a camera flash and loves the color purple. Someone should let her know about Colorware.

Kim Kardashian Gets Custom Housing On BlackBerry Bold 9700

Kal Chebli — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 18:18:20 +0000

Kim Kardashian, one of our favorite BlackBerry users yet just got some additions on her BlackBerry Bold 9700. She must of been jealous of her sister Khloe who recently made the switch. Last time we saw, she had a Curve 8900 where she took pictures of herself half naked to some lucky guy. Not so lucky, as the picture publicized all over the interwebs. From the look of it, this could be some Colorware added to it. I say this because, not only has the chrome bezel been replaced with a gold one, but the BlackBerry emblem also is gold. We don’t know what the front face looks like as we only see the back portion here. On the other hand, maybe Kim ordered some parts from CNN.cn or TrueSupplier and did the operation herself. Yeah right.

Chris Brown Stays Loyal to BlackBerry Storm 9530 – Will You?

Otoniel Bruno — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 22:41:01 +0000

So the latest rumor from the wire is that the BlackBerry Storm 9530 is getting discontinued from Verizon Wireless. The original Storm 9530 released in late 2008, having a very sloppy release with customer complaints left and right on the operating system. Overtime, OS updates released, and in my opinion OS 5.0 came too late, when it should of sooner to keep its customers on it. The main question is, who will be sticking around with the Storm 9530 any more after Verizon stops its production and retail? I know Chris Brown is holding a Storm, as seen above in the image.

With the BlackBerry Storm ending its life soon supposedly, what do you do? Stay touch screen and go to the Storm 2 9550? Perhaps you’ll give QWERTY another shot once again and go with the Tour 9630 which isn’t going to be so hot with the 9650 on the way. Maybe you’ll downgrade yourself for the Curve 8530 and have a more basic device, losing a camera flash, but gaining 3G and WiFi. Either way, it’s not secret that seeing your Storm 9530 out of production can discourage you a bit in having it, pushing you to upgrade. What do you do?

Khloe Kardashian upgrades to the BlackBerry Bold 9700

Collin Sorp — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 18:12:11 +0000

If you are one of many who follow Hollywood celebrities, than you already know that the BlackBerry Bold 9000 quickly became the most popular celebrity device. Of course with the all new Bold 9700 launching, celebrities got first hand experiences and their own free one at the launch party. We saw Tara Reid holding one sometime ago, which we also have confirmation that she did attend the launch party event. In this picture above we see Khloe Kardashian with a BlackBerry Bold 9700, as the three sisters traditionally had the Curve 8900. We usually don’t get to see Khloe in action with her Berry. Not as much as her sister Kim! Either way, the Bold 9000 still floats around many celebrities hands such as Ryan Secreast.
