Stewart Copeland soundtrack for BlackBerry Bold. RIM commissions the prolific composer and former drummer for The Police to create a ’soundtrack’ for the BlackBerry Bold. The result was a signature five-note melody which Copeland expanded into a percussive minute-long track simply named ‘Bold’ that’s preloaded (along with mock-up album art!) into the Bold’s ‘Sample Songs’ folder. In addition, a softer version with a fade-in is used as an “alarm tone”, while six variations (excerpts form various parts of the Bold theme) are available as ringtones.
In case you’re interested in listening to the Bold theme, Bold alarm and Bold ringtones, all is available from here.
