With the BlackBerry Bold smartphone, it creates a new standard for the look and feel of applications on the smartphone. To that end, we have created a style guide that outlines the best practices for evoking the elegance and sophistication of the BlackBerry Bold smartphone user experience.
The BlackBerry® Browser underwent significant improvements with the v4.6.0 release. There are two new development guides available with this release to ensure web developers can leverage these new enhancements to create state of the art browser based applications for BlackBerry.
