The video shows that some guy ported the BlackBerry Pearl 8220's build of OS 4.6 to this Nokia 5700 and got it to work. Why would anyone want to do this? Your guess is as good as mine....read more

RIM briefly posted news about its upcoming BlackBerry 9650 on Facebook, but then quickly took it down. The problem is, CrackBerry got a screencap before the post came down.
