RIM has sneaked the Blackberry Bold 9000 into Chile, becoming the first country in the world to get its hands on the next-gen message master.
Movistar is also the first carrier to get Blackberry Bold users pawing its buttons in email frenzy, presumably showing off their new purchase to friends in non Bold zones.
The Bold packs 3G, HSDPA and Wi-Fi for quick-as-you-like online browsing along with added GPS talents for finding your way.
Also tucked within is a microSD expansion slot for cards up to 16GB, stereo Bluetooth and a 2 – megapixel picture grabber.
UK users will have to be content with their current Blackberry for now though, who will be waiting with Blackberry baited breath.
