As you can see from the above funky video the 'Action Starts Here' campaign is also in full swing in the Philippines.
It is supported by some of the brightest names in Philippine show business including long time BlackBerry and BBM users Solenn Heussaff, Isabelle Daza, Liz Uy, Tim Yap, and Raymond Gutierrez. In the Philippines, they are known as an A-list barkada (barkada is a Filipino word referring to a group of friends).
To encourage more Filipinos to take action, RIM is introducing attractive prices on their BlackBerry 7 line-up, in time for the holiday season, with up to 35% off the price of many BlackBerry smartphones. I suspect the Christmas offers are going to be in full swing all round the globe over the next couple of months and we will of course bring you the best deals as we get them.
If you are in the Philippines then it may well be time to think about picking up a BlackBerry bargain.
