CNET Editors' review
If you're happy with your BlackBerry, but curious what it might be like to stare at an iPhone all day, the freeware bPhone theme makes experimentation safe. After downloading the code, start the theme from within the settings menu. BPhone's graphics are high-quality, though the application will only transform the icons corresponding with standard Blackberry apps. All the rest will remain exactly as they were before. If that's too unsightly for your tastes, you can either rearrange your icons to shift third-party apps below, or keep looking for a new theme.
Publisher's Description
From Matthew Rogers:
bPhone for BlackBerry features icons straight from the iPhone in addition to custom-made icons that fit into the iPhone theme. The top banner is dark glass, the signal and battery indicators were created from scratch to mimic the iPhones, the busy indicator is the Mac OS X beachball, and there is liberal use of gray and blue (Mac and iPhones primary interface colors) throughout the theme. The fonts are set at a medium size. This version is the first release on CNET Download.com.

"Does not work with BB Bold 9700"
Version: bPhone for BlackBerry
Pros
Can't comment as unable to place on BBBold 9700
Cons
Can't comment as unable to place on BBBold 9700
Summary
I tried thrice to download and install this program but don't see it in Bold 9700. I followed all the instructions as suggested by the developer Mathew but no luck. Any other suggestions? Or its not designed for BBBold 9700 yet? I emailed developer as recommended by him in the email link for download but the email bounced back. Thanks.

"Looks Good - really slows down the OS"
Version: bPhone for BlackBerry
Pros
Sleek, colorful, visually modern
Cons
Makes the blackberry OS run very very very slow when running on a Sprint Blackberry 8330 (Curve)
Summary
Really not worth the time or frustration to install on the Sprint Blackberry Curve, unless you don't mind waiting a long long time to access all of your content.
