If you aren’t using a BlackBerry Torch, or, haven’t downloaded a leaked version of BlackBerry 6 for the Bold 9650, surfing the web via BlackBerry Browser is a pretty excruciating experience. Fortunately there are 3rd party browsers out there that make browsing the web less painful. Bolt from Bitstream is arguably one of the best 3rd party BlackBerry browsers out there and it has recently been updated to version 2.3.

Bolt, a third part web browser that makes viewing web pages on a BlackBerry device tolerable, has been updated to version 2.11. BitStream says that the update to Bolt doesn’t add new functionality, however, it does address several issues (read bugs) with the previous version…
Bitstream is releasing a new update of the BOLT mobile browser: version 2.11. The 2.11 release includes important updates that address server response times which eliminates the problem on some websites that has caused BOLT to hang at 20 percent on the progress bar, as well as improves Twitter use. Although there are no new features in this release, Bitstream strongly recommends all users update to this new version for an improved mobile browsing experience.

Update: Bolt 2.0 Beta now available. Download here…
Word on the street is that version 2.0 of the Bolt BlackBerry browser is launching tomorrow morning (later this morning depending on your time zone) at the CITA wireless show in Las Vegas.
“Each new version of BOLT becomes more exciting to announce,” said Anna Magliocco-Chagnon, president and CEO of Bitstream. “We are closely listening to our end-users through our user forum, our Twitter and Facebook pages, and their comments on blog posts and articles, and they are guiding our development roadmap in important ways. It is this close relationship we are building with our users to which we attribute our stunning growth. BOLT added 1 million new users in the last five weeks alone.”
A lot of new features have been added in Bolt 2.0, however, the major add is true tabbed browsing.

Thanks to BlackBerry Cool who has unlimited downloads of the closed Beta, we are giving the Bolt Mobile Web Browser the once over.
I’ve only had Bolt installed for a few minutes, however, it appears to be a heck of a lot quicker than Opera. So far I really like it.
You can download Bolt here. Use berrycool as your referral code.
Happy Browsing…
