In October, a newest smartphone was unveiled by Research In Motion. It is the RIM BlackBerry Bold 9700, which will replace the original BlackBerry Bold 9000. This new smartphone offers a sleeker design, double the Flash memory, and updated features.

The main attraction of this new smart phone is its size. Comparing with the original Bold's 4.48 inches high by 2.6 inches wide by 0.59 inch deep and 4.8 ounces, the Bold now measures 4.29 inches tall by 2.36 inches wide by0.56 inch thick and weighs 4.3 ounces. The Bold shares with the RIM BlackBerry Tour 9630 the same 2.44-inch HVGA (480*360) display and has similar 35-key QWERTY keyboards.

The Blackberry Bold 9700 uses the touch-sensitive trackpad to replace the trackball navigator. The trackpad is extremely responsive. The Bold 9700 is equipped with a 3.5mm headphone jack and features slightly revamped leatherette back. Overall, the new design will appeal to both men and women.

The smartphone is equipped with a next-generation 624MHz processor and has double the Flash memory at 256MB. The Bold 9700 is a quad-band GSM phone that also integrated Wi-Fi with UMA support, Bluetooth, GPS/A-GPS, and 3G supports (UMTS/HSDPA 800/850/1900/2100; UMTS/HSDPA 900/1700/2100). Given the supported bands, we know you're already thinking about possible carriers and availability, so here's the dish.
