New ad for BlackBerry Bold 9780 shows off WebKit browser

On almost every television station you watch these days, AT&T and RIM are bombarding you with commercials for the BlackBerry Torch 9800. But with the Torch being an exclusive to AT&T, other carriers need to advertise their latest and greatest RIM manufactured devices. So RIM has put together a new ad for the BlackBerry Bold 9780 that is available in the U.S. through only T-Mobile for now (although AT&T is expected to offer its version of the phone soon).

Not only does the ad show off the white version of the phone, but the spot also gives you a look at the new BlackBerry WebKit browser. In the ad, we can see the new tabbed browsing feature as the ballerina uses her 'Berry to watch a video from the mobile YouTube site (sorry, BlackBerry users, still no YouTube client for your phone). The bottom line is a commercial that shows how useful and practical the device can be, not to mention how sexy the Bold 9780 looks in white.
