Product Review - Blackberry Bold
Mario Armstrong: Hey, guys. It’s Mario Armstrong right here on SBTV.com, your Tech Guru. You know me from Tech tactics right here on the website SBTV. Well now, we are in Boston at the Taj Hotel, beautiful hotel in a Boston area. Why are we here? We’re small business of course. There is a road show about a new device The Blackberry Bold. It’s the rim device with AT&T service. You can kind of see the stage is all set up. We’re getting ready to have our presentations kick in so hang on, stay tuned for a while. You’re going to hear some great presentations here how people are using these devices and hear a few thoughts or what yours truly has to say about how you can expand your business with the Blackberry Bold.
Jeff Goldstein: AT&T mobility is the only wireless carrier that has a dedicated small business unit to support in sales and we’re here to talk about the Blackberry Bold so this is an exciting time for us as you know the Bold Launch on November 4th and we’re just so excited about this. There’s so much that goes into a device specifically a Blackberry application and solutions to help your companies run more efficiently.
Jason: So it’s all about experience, so we start applying for experience. It’s about reliability. It’s about a quality device, a quality phone experience. It’s about security. It’s about extensibility, adding applications and weight more than just your basic email machine.
Mario Armstrong: I am very bold all in the ATT Bold and it’s because I’ve been a Blackberry user from way back in a day but being able to talk and work at the same time is a big deal. You can't do that without the carriers. You have to see attachment on these devices. The screen is so much clearer, the color is beautiful, the resolution are recent like different not just the screen size but the actual resolution. The bottom line is mobility is here to stay.
Well, joining me now on SBTV.com is Will Cunningham. He’s a director with the AT&T, glad to see you here.
Will Cunningham: Thank you very much.
Mario Armstrong: So what do you think about the event?
Will Cunningham: It’s been a great event, yes now I think you would pretend that all the AT&T in the great light and I think it’s been great tool for small business units.
Mario Armstrong: Are you holding?
Will Cunningham: I am holding—
Mario Armstrong: Don’t show them. Go ahead, okay. So wait before you show them that I want to show them this. This is the new cool phone of the future. Okay nice, this is the new cool phone of the future. That’s what it looks like folks of the Blackberry Bold. What do you guys think about today’s event here with AT&T and a rim Blackberry today, what do you think? I thought it was a lot of fun?
Male: I thought it was a lot of fun. I learned about how to use the technology to my advantage and the new features that the phone offers and I can't wait to see what it got.
Katie O’ Connor: Well, I thought the new Blackberry Bold which I think is going to be a great edition to the Blackberry family. We currently have very updated to my sis so we are looking to operate right now.
Mario Armstrong: Mobility is big and it’s happening at rapid and great. What are some of the things that you are hearing from the customer that maybe they should be focusing on when it comes to mobile solutions?
Will Cunningham: Mobility is very much and very important people need to be in touch with their loved ones and also their work environment and so we’re actually building devices and technology as long people to do that with then Blackberry Bold is a great example, that’s amazing too.
Mario Armstrong: How is mobility impacting or changing the way you’re doing business now?
Paul Luciano: Well, because we’ve been using Blackberry for a while and now we’re upgrading the latest on Blackberry this is allowing us to be better in touch with our sales force. If we can use the email functionality, we can use the calendar functionality and because we are across all the time zones in the United States we can merge our meetings quickly.
Mario Armstrong: Check this out guys, because he didn’t know this like by coming to this event—I didn’t know this. I’m a little bothered by this all but I can get one but apparently they give all of the attendees. Is this the new Blackberry Bold?
Paul Luciano: It is a Blackberry Bold. That’s the latest in 3G technology. This is going to be and all this is also an international device which means in a world phone we can give this to our sales people. We can give this to our upper management. Our people, our CIO, all those people who maybe the ones we’re going to travel more internationally which—here’s a device get on the plane and go.
Mario Armstrong: We’re here at the Boston event for the road show with rim and AT&T. I’m Mario Armstrong for SBTV.com, still more here at the event. Stay tuned.
