Do you know what London and Toronto have in common?

Yesterday, both cities hosted BlackBerry ® 7 OS launch events, welcoming the BlackBerry ® Torch ™ 9810, 9850 and 9860 smartphones to the BlackBerry ® family! Among the guests of honor were the BlackBerry ® Bold ™ 9900 and 9930 smartphones, both of which are BlackBerry 7 OS devices that had previously been announced at BlackBerry World ™.

Of course, the Social Media team at Research In Motion ® (RIM ®) was on hand at these launch events to demo the smartphones and speak with attendees.

While the BlackBerry Bold 9900 and 9930 smartphones

are not yet in stores, we’re eager to share these early hands-on impressions from the press, everyday shoppers and BlackBerry smartphone users. We may have provided the BlackBerry 7 OS smartphones, but these opinions are 100% their own.

Once you have an opportunity to use the new BlackBerry Bold 9900 or 9930 smartphone, feel free to post a comment of your own and let us know what you think about them.
