BlackBerry Bold Arrives in Jamaica... MON!

Usain Bolt and his BlackBerry Bold

The BlackBerry Bold is now available in C&W's markets in Jamaica! I had a feeling Jamaica might get earlier access to the Bold than a lot of other places... What tipped me off was when I noticed Usain Bolt running with one in the 100 meter final. Anyone else notice that?

I also might suggest that Jamaicans refer to the BOLD as the BOLT, in honor of the world's fastest man, Usain Bolt. Man that guy can run. RIM, a special addition BlackBerry BOLT? Anyone?... Ugh... nevermind.

The Bold will be supported by Jamaican carrier Cable and Wireless Caribbean.

They should rename it to Bolt and have it in the JA colors.

I think James was going for some intentionally bad photoshop here.. supposed to be humorous. Awesome pic! :)

He was running with a Bold in the 100 meters. Did he get it passed to him after the race?

Just an fyi, even to the untrained eye like mine, if you look closely, you can see that the picture has been altered to show that

Mexico also has launched BB Bold today (Sept 8), with Telcel.
I am a proud owner and love it.
