If you love the clamshell form-factor, you'll be happy to know that Boost Mobile will be releasing the BlackBery Style 9670 later this month.

Pricing is uncertain, as we've heard from sources at Best Buy that their inventory is saying $280, while the screenshot from Boost pins it at $199.

RIM announced today the availability of the BlackBerry WebWorks SDK v 2.1 for BlackBerry Smartphones. This update comes shortly after the introduction of the BlackBerry WebWorks SDK v 2.1 for Tablet OS and brings similar functionality and APIs to the BlackBerry Smartphone OS.

The new capabilities that WebWorks developers can now leverage include NTML & BASIC Authentication support, Camera API, Top Banner Indicator API, Enhanced Push APIs and improved rendering speeds for some applications. The APIs enable web developers to deeply integrate with the BlackBerry Smartphone OS and thereby build feature rich apps that offer more immersive and interactive end user experiences. Other benefits developers can derive from the new application functionality and APIs are better app monetization, diversified development approaches, support for standardized security and better integration with the widely popular BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) Social Platform.

If you are a developer head to the BBOS forum and let us know about what you think about this new developer content.

Recent numbers put out by comScore shows that RIM continues a steady slow decline this year in the US Smartphone Market share. RIM has suffered a 1% drop from 25.7% to 24.7% since the last report given by comScore ending in April 2011. It will be interesting to see how the numbers change when Verizon starts to sell three of the upcoming BlackBerry Smartphones in their stores later this year. Let's hope RIM can climb back up on top with this rekindled Verizon partnership.
