Porsche Design theme ported to BlackBerry 9900 / 9930, saves you a small fortune
If you want some of that Porsche Design look, without the German engineered price, then check what just pulled up on the driveway: a port of the custom theme and icons. Sadly, only BlackBerry 9900 / 9300 owners — which share much of the same hardware as the P’9981 — running BlackBerry OS7 (not 7.1) can give their handset that new car smell. This means the sharp lines and luxurious brushed finish that made the P’9981 catch our eye in the first place will remain firmly in those pockets deep enough to afford it.

Harrods reportedly nabs Porsche Design P’9981 BlackBerry as UK exclusive, costs a princely £1,275
The department store Harrods is no stranger to exposing Londoners to some of the finer — and more eccentric — things in life, and so after learning that it’d be bringing RIM’s Porsche Design P’9981 BlackBerry to its shelves as a UK exclusive, we couldn’t help but smile with curiosity. While we’ve yet to see anything official come across the wires, it’s reported that this sexy slab of unlocked goodness will retail for £1,275 and hit stores before the month’s end. We’ve attempted to confirm these details with RIM’s UK group but, as it turns out, Brits like going home early on Friday, too.
