New in BlackBerry 7
BlackBerry 7 includes a number of exciting new features and services, as well as some enhancements to existing features.
BlackBerry ID
A BlackBerry ID is an email and password that gives you convenient access to BlackBerry products and services. After you
create your BlackBerry ID, you can log in to any BlackBerry product that supports BlackBerry ID. For example, with
BlackBerry ID you can manage apps that you downloaded from the BlackBerry App World storefront and keep apps you
downloaded when you switch smartphones. For more information, see BlackBerry ID 250 .
Voice enabled search
Looking for something? You can now use your voice to search for help, contacts, documents, pictures, videos, and more on
your smartphone and on the Internet. For more information, see Search for an item using voice enabled search 309 .
