The Blackberry Bold 9000 is still popular for businesses in the midst of a current smartphone upheaval. When compared to most smartphones, owners love the ability to use their Blackberry Bold 1-handed. Meaning that they could be holding a stack of presentation and still be able to make a call, text, and other simple tasks. The ability to do so is one of the more loved feature of the Blackberry Bold 9000 and others like it.

As a mobile phone, it’s great because it is 3G capable. Meaning that you get the fastest available connection when speaking or surfing online.

As a smart handheld device, owners of the BB Bold 9000 are enjoying the 3rd party apps that are available to fulfill whatever task they need to do their jobs. Research in Motion is not as restrictive on who can make programs for their device, such as, say Apple who has a tight leash on what 3rd party software can be used for the iPhone. In this sense, the Blackberry Bold 9000 and other Blackberry mobile phones have more ability and resources to support business and professional applications.

For example, GPS apps made by well-known and reliable GPS manufacturers such as Garmin are available for the Blackberry Bold. There are many traveling professionals who swear by the GPS in order to make their appointment.

Also, the ability to tether a Blackberry onto a laptop is invaluable. Many realtors, for example, find this feature necessary whenever they conduct an open house and need access to online resources when speaking to a potential buyer.

An unlocked Blackberry Bold 9000 can be purchased from eBay and it will be ready for use with any GSM SIM-card offered by the likes of AT&T and T-Mobile.
