Some more official carrier OS' have been updated, this time around the BlackBerry Curve 9330 and BlackBerry Style 9670 are getting the love. If you own either devices, you'll likely just want to ahead and load these up rather then waiting for your specific carrier to update. Just remember, make sure you delete the vendor.xml file first and you'll be good to go.

BlackBerry Style coming to Boost Mobile

Have an urge to try out the BlackBerry Style 9670, but not looking to start up a new contract at Sprint? According to the picture above, Boost Mobile will be getting this device in soon, so you can explore your clamshell curiosities without commitment. For all the jokes I hear about the Style and its unique look, the word from people that actually own one is that it's a great device. I had doubts before it was released, but I took a trip to a Sprint store with Bla1ze one day and decided the design isn't bad at all. And it sure beats the BlackBerry Pearl Flip

According to the screenshot, you'll be able to pick the BlackBerry Style up for $199, though apparently the rumor is Best Buy will have them for $280, so I suppose we'll see when it comes out. Personally I think this is a good move. Summer is underway, but it's never to early to think about back-to-school, and I think flip phones are a good choice for tweens and teens, especially prepaid. Go ahead, make it a BlackBerry!

BlackBerry Style 9670

My BlackBerry is like my 4th child. It has it's sweet moments when everything runs smoothly. It also has it's temper tantrums where nothing seems to go right and I find myself pulling it's battery for punishment (sometimes I leave it out for a few minutes extra just to show it who's really the boss). I don't make my kids sleep on a hard counter or night stand so why should my BlackBerry? This is why I use the BlackBerry Charging Pod for the Style 9670. While it may not be as fancy as the one pictured above, it gives my baby a safe place to sleep at night and is still close at hand. The pod also allows me to save the USB port from needless stress.

Accessories for the BlackBerry Style 9670 are few and far between at the moment, so when I saw ShopCrackBerry.com had the Mobi Products Crystal Clear Case available, I jumped at the chance to review it.

The case is basically two pieces of plastic that just snap on the front and back of your BlackBerry Style. It does NOT come with screen protectors. The cutouts allow easy access to the charging port, side buttons & media card. The case does cover the charging contacts on the 9670, so if you use a charging cradle, you will have to pop the back piece of the case off each time. The case is very light and is made of a lightweight plastic so after a few drops you may end up with some cracks here and there. The Mobi Products Crystal Case is available at ShopCrackBerry.com for $12.95 and is also available in solid black.

Some of the forum users have used the case and experienced some "echo" issues. I tried the case on both my Style and another unit. I didn't notice an echo but the other person said she could hear one.

Alltel Style 9670 6.0.0.407

It looks like Alltel may soon be offering the BlackBerry Style 9670 for its customers. While the device isn't yet showing in their BlackBerry listings, they do have the software for the device available for download. It's not the first time we've seen an "oops" on pushing software live too soon (and surely not to be the last) but it's a good sign that the device may pop up fairly soon. This is the same OS that Sprint has officially offered for the 9670, but no other official details to tag along with this one so we'll see if anything turns up. Thanks Steve!

Leaked OS 6.0.0.413 For The BlackBerry Style 9670

It's like a cat and mouse game here with the BlackBerry Style OS' it seems. .407 leaked then became official, now .413 is here, will it go official as well? Not likely just yet but, that's the joy of a leak. You get to mess around with it ahead of time. Be sure to back up your data before load it up folks, it's a leak and as such it remains untested for the masses.

*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). *
