New from my friends at BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM) Theme Park comes the ‘Wood Work Pro’ theme for the 9700. The name pretty much says it all here. Kind of reminds me of the hardwood flooring in my neighbours kitchen… which is where I’m usually caught looking anyway when I have a BlackBerry in-hand (head down, typing away :P ).

Key features of this one:

  • Custom designed battery that changes 4 different colors as it wears down
  • unlike the first version, Pro has the network displayed on the home screen so that business travelers can see the active network
  • 6 separate hidden tabbed icons that pop up to make it especially easy to see which application is highlighted while offering a clean and professional look.  All 6 icons launch user selected applications
  • 7th specially placed icon for your favorite weather application(place your weather app in the 7th slot on your icon screen
  • Hidden Today section with 7 entries to see a snapshot of your calendar or new messages
  • custom icon set with clear and distinct icons that represent the application that they launch

Bold 9700 users can pick up a copy from BlackBerry Theme Park for $6.99. Enjoy!
