BlackBerry Bold 9900 now available on Orange

Screen Shot 2011-10-06 at 13.12.15

If you are one of the people who has been holding out to get the BlackBerry Bold 9900 on Orange then today is a happy day for you. The device is now available to order online and I presume in retail stores too but I would phone and ask before heading to a local shop.

The device has been around for a wee while now but like many handsets Orange perform rigorous testing on the device prior to launching. It will be interesting to see if they have added or removed any features from the standard ROM.

If you need a reminder of what the device is all about and our views on it check out our extensive review.

You can order online here.

Steve Jobs passes away

 

Screen Shot 2011-10-06 at 02.04.20 Sad news for the tech world today. Just a day after the iPhone 4S was announced Apple has confirmed that former CEO Steve Jobs has died after a long battle with cancer.

Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit, will forever be the foundation of Apple.

Our condolences go out to Steve’s wife and family. Rest in Peace Steve.

After last nights iPhone 4S announcement all of our UK networks have been quick of the mark to say they will carry the new device. Although prices and plans are not yet available to see online the networks all have web pages where you can register your interest.

If you fancy having a look at the iPhone 4S and its new features on video head on over to the Apple website where an in depth video can be seen.

I am seeing mixed opinions on the iPhone 4S across the web. Why not let us know your thoughts on our forum? Are you happy with the changes Apple have made or would you have wanted a new designed iPhone?

I personally was hoping for an iPhone 5 with a slightly bigger screen. Oh well. Next time maybe.
