Leaked: OS 5.0.0.743 for the BlackBerry Bold 9700

 *UPDATE* - This one has just gone official from Optus. Official download can be found here*

BlackBerry Bold 9700 owners have been stuck on OS 5.0.0.680 for a while now. So, why not go ahead and give OS 5.0.0.743 a spin around the block. I've not had the time to test this out in any fashion so like always, be sure to back up your data first. Let us know in the comments how it works out for you all.

*OS Disclaimer - Please Read: Keep in mind this is NOT an official release and as such is not supported by RIM or your Carrier. If you choose to install, do so at your own risk and only if you're comfortable in the process of upgrading and downgrading your device software. It is quite normal during operating system development for certain features to be crippled or disabled while others are tested, and these beta builds often reflect that. They are not always better. Depending on your BlackBerry comfort level, it may be best for you to wait for community feedback on a build before deciding to download and install for yourself or simply wait for the next official release. If you require support, you will find it in our CrackBerry forums via our extremely knowledgeable community base - do not contact your carrier or RIM for Beta OS technical support (their first course of action will be to advise you to downgrade to a supported OS). Follow the links below for more information and instructions. *
