AT&T tweeted earlier today that the BlackBerry Bold 9900 is coming soon. AT&T hasn’t stated why it has taken so long for the nation’s largest GSM network to get the Bold 9900, however, we believe AT&T held back the 9900 in an effort to sell as many BlackBerry Torch 9810 devices, which are exclusive to AT&T, as possible.

The folks at #TeamBlackBerry, via the Inside BlackBerry blog, have released their top 5 BlackBerry apps list, however, it is unclear if this list is of top 5 BlackBerry apps available from RIM, or, just top 5 apps in general.

It looks like Twitter has recently updated their HTML 5 website so that it will work on the BlackBerry PlayBook, and, I have got to admit that it looks and functions pretty well. I would still like to see a dedicated Twitter App (read TweetDeck for BlackBerry PlayBook) with multiple account support, but, the HTML 5 Twitter page gets the job done if you are just looking to view your stream and post quick Tweets…

RIM put out a Tweet the other day that insinuated that the new BlackBerry 7 devices were going to be announced yesterday, July 26th. The exact verbage…
You got it! New #BlackBerry devices are coming w/ our new OS, BlackBerry 7! Check back tmrw 4 deets on #BB7FanNight. ^CH
Most people, myself included, took this to mean that RIM was going to release details on new BlackBerry 7 devices that are coming. What RIM actually meant was that they were releasing details on #BB7FanNight… That is a load of BS and RIM knows it…

From the official @BlackBerry Twitter account, RIM replied to BGR’s Tweet announcing said post.
@BGR -> RIM to discontinue BlackBerry PlayBook? http://goo.gl/fb/rO0Zn
18 hours ago@BlackBerry -> @BGR Pure fiction. No plan to discontinue. In fact, WiFi PlayBook is launching in new countries practically every week.
I wonder what RIM tweet to the analysts?

I tend to install quite a few BlackBerry applications, so, I like to blow my device away every 3 to 4 months and re-install the applications that I really use on my device. Although there are numerous top notch premium BlackBerry applications in the wild, there are quite a few quality free BlackBerry apps out there as well.
Here is my top ten list of free BlackBerry applications that I just re-installed on my BlackBerry Bold…
