BlackBerry Bold 9930 Now Available on Verizon’s Website!

I just hit publish on the post about the Verizon BlackBerry Bold 9930 rumors and Jim let me know that the device is now available! You can now pick up the BlackBerry Bold 9930 on the Verizon Wireless website for $249. It requires a 2 year activation for that pricing. Another thing worth noting is that it makes no mention of the NFC radio built in which is odd. If you don't want to sign a contract you can pick up the device for $509.99.

Check it out on Verizon's website at this link

The real irony is that the BlackBerry Bold 9930 product page tells you to "Forge ahead with the BlackBerry Bold 9650 smartphone." I guess Verizon needs to fix their typos…

Free BlackBerry Management Center for Small Business Now Available

We have been keeping all of you up to date on the progress of RIM's BlackBerry Management Center solution for awhile now. The solution is quite promising for small businesses and even families with multiple BlackBerrys. It lets you centralize the management of all of the BIS email accounts along with managing their BlackBerry Protect settings. In other words it is sort of a cloud BES with a lite subset of features that is totally free as a service.

RIM is clearly trying to help small businesses manage multiple BlackBerrys and protect from the security implications caused by a lost device. RIM let us know about Gartners estimate of $2500 per lost device a bit back and that cost is not going down. To sum it all up BlackBerry Management Center is just one of the ways that RIM is making an effort to help small businesses manage, secure and protect their BlackBerry devices and information.

Features include:

  • Wirelessly back up BlackBerry smartphones automatically on a daily, weekly or monthly basis to aid in the recovery of lost business-related content stored on the handset
  • Protect content on an employee's lost or stolen BlackBerry smartphone by remotely locking it and, if necessary, wiping the contents, including the microSD card
  • Locate a lost BlackBerry smartphone by remotely locking it, initiating a loud ring, and displaying a message on the Home screen
  • Easily restore the settings and content on a new or replacement device

You can check out the service and read more about it at the link or press release below:
