Looking for your first accessories for the BlackBerry Bold 9700? Here's Your Chance to Win One! Just leave a comment to this post letting us know which accessory you plan to buy first for your BlackBerry Bold 9700...
Accessories for the BlackBerry Bold 9700
When we posed the question recently asking What is the first accessory you'll buy for your BlackBerry Storm2?, it was clear that some form of protection - be it a leather case, rubber skin or invisible shield, was the most popular accessory category. When it comes to accessories for the BlackBerry Bold 9700, it is yet another new form factor from Research in Motion and thus need to be aware that some of your old stuff, but not all of it, will work.
Though the Bold 9700 shares the same Bold name as its older 9000 model number sibling, the form factor is much different than its predecessor: its size is more Curve-like than Bold like, and similar to other newer BlackBerry Smartphones the Bold 9700 features a MicroUSB connection instead of the MiniUSB port found on the original Bold. The only consistent accessory component between the original Bold and the Bold 9700 is the battery - both use the same slim M-S1 battery.

The first accessory I would get for any BB is a screen protector.
You say the size is more Curve like. If it fits my leather case the first will be a car charger, if not a new case.
I would get leather case with the magnets in them to save battery and to protect it ,or I would get a cute gel skin case :)! I can't wait!!!
Charging Dock
and skin is a must have
I plan to buy a rubber case.
Screen Protector is first.
A hard case. I'm prone to dropping.
I want!
I want the SanDisk 16GB microSDHC Card
silicone case and screen protector! It's gona be my new baby :)
Definitely getting a case. Either a rubber or leather one!
I'll be buying a screen protector first. Gotta protect the screen from scratches!
I would have to get a screen protector/invisi shield and either a holster or rubber case, as long as my H500 and car charger are still fully compatible
I am def going to be purchasing myself another docking station like I have for my bold 9000 now! Love it as my alarm clock and only way to tell time in my room! :)
Definitely a dock. Probably two... office and home.
I'm eligible for an upgrade with AT&T and will wait for the Bold 9700. I would like to get a screen protector, a nice protective case (just in case I dropped it). I've dropped my Curve 8310 a couple of time. Maybe later on, and SD more than 2GB I have now. So many to choose...but first a screen protector.
screen protector :)
Probably a 16 GB SDHC card.
Great can't wait for this phone, Now if i can just win one of these contests it would be great lol
thanks crackberry
a skin is definitely a must have
First on the list is a rubber skin and then perhaps some type of holster.
Something clear and shiny that says "look, but don't touch me sidewalk!"
or maybe the big and juiciest SD card it can handle.
I would purchase a leather case first.
Need the charging cradle to set this beauty in at work while I listen to my tunes.
...and then a charging dock.
The first accessory I'll need is a Bluetooth headset so I won't get a ticket while driving and talking!
I won't need a case...keeping my baby in my hands at all times ;).
I want a bodyglove skin with the kickstand, best accessory
I have for my current curve.
I would buy the dock!
I will be getting a screen protector, leather case, blue tooth and charging station.
I recently got 3 out of 4 for my 2-yr old curve :)
will be a long while before dressing up 9700.
I would get a 16GBSD card
The first thing i'm getting is a huge SD card then probably some kind of case to keep it beautiful.
I think it would definitely have to be a screen and body protector. This thing is just too beautiful to be dropped and damaged.
Phantom skinz!
....the skin case.
Most likely a skin and a bunch of those mini to micro USB adapters for all my chargers
Invisi-Shield to keep that pretty look in tact.
After messing up my Bold with welding spatter , I will be buying screen protector followed by charging dock... Can Not Wait

Invisi-Shield to protect that screen.
First and only thing I plan on buying is a Invisibleshield for this puppy!!!
A car charger.
Definitely Invisi Shield to protect the screen from scatching.
Definitely an invisible shield with privcy screen! And carry case!
a black OEM skin
ill buy a sweet theme, maybe berrypro. i would also love to have a dock, specifially the powermat. does anyone know if theyre making a new backplate for the onyx?
would be a screen shield. Second would be a charging dock.
First thing I'm going to get is a skin/case. Looking at the all the scratches around my 8320, I wish I had gotten one for my first Berry! My Upgrade next month can't come soon enough!! :)
