Now without further ado:
!6 for BlackBerry by BBThemes
This theme is by far one of the most interesting ones of the three. It had a ton of work put in to it with the sliding three dock that can be hidden. Also it is the only theme that is not made for a touch BB. The best part of all though, is it is absolutely free! It isn't a limited time offer either, it's free all the time! A definite deal-maker when it comes down to buying. (NOTE: Just released is a Small Font version for 8900, 9600 and 9700 to fix the problems faced in the messages screen for users who like their font size 8 or below)
Features:
- !6 offers you 3 homescreens, which you can just slide from one into the other, in the centre there is ALL, to the left is MEDIA and to the right MESSAGING
- Media holds - Music, Videos, Pictures, Ringtones, Voicenotes and Voice notes recorder.
- Messaging holds - Messages, SMS and MMS, Compose, BBM, Saved Messages and Contacts.
- All holds - device order icons 1-6, this is where you can have the icons of your choice.
- !6 also features the search extension built in, 4 rows of today information (hidden today style) and a matching lockscreen image.
- Hidden Today update - there is now a sliding area that will sit behind your Today area, so no matter what color your background you`ll always be able to see you information.
- To activate the hidden Today sliding panel press T (caps + t) and to hide it press Y (caps + y).
This is the most popular theme on Mobihand stores. "Still the BEST OS 6 theme for a reason!!!!" could be taken as cocky or overconfident, but they are not far off. WJD Designs are notorious for their visually spot-on impersonation themes (eg Hero, HTC, Droid, OS 6). This theme is definitely a solid theme that is very well made and involves some cool features. Available for Storms, 9700, 9600, Storm (4.6 Only) and 8900, it hits the majority of BBs which makes consumers happy and is only $2.99. Also with its custom, handwritten SVG files (the files that make the special theme features), it is less prone to errors and glitches.
Features:
- Today Feature (ONLY ON THE STORM DEVICE!)
- 24 Customizable Icons on Storm Devices (change application Icon order)
- 18 Customizable Icons on Other (change application Icon order)
- 3 Screen Slide Docks
- Hidden Dock Feature for Full Screen wallpaper
- Just over 1 MB in size
- Minimal Lag and Multi Function
- Custom Icons to mimic new OS 6 Icons
- A WJD Designs Original
This theme is the most available theme of the three. Has a very cool interface and runs very smoothly on the four BBs I ran it on. The downside is it is the most expensive, Running at $3.99, it is a dollar more than OS 6. But, if your BlackBerry is not supported with the other two, it is sure to be here, and it is definitely worth the extra buck then. Supported devices are Storm (4.7/5.0), 8900, 85XX, 8350, 9000, 96XX (Tour) and 9700. A cool feature on this theme is that on the homescreen the lock is a shortcut to the "Clock" app and the Signal icon is a shortcut to the "Manage Connections" app.

I liked what you've written here BBAndrew. The 3 versions you chose were in fact the current top 3. I like them all personally though I was not happy when I saw the 1st one on CB, not WJD's. I'm talking that one that was made the top post and had like 5 custom icons. I knew things would get crazy with OS 6. And now I believe many of these themes will be much cooler than the actual OS 6 for our BlackBerry Smartphone's. However my favorite thing about this movement, this big effect made by the OS 6 icons is the reintroduction of simple "zen" icon-sets to the end user. Once I saw WJD's Clockwork theme I knew we had opened an awesome door, now we get the new BT Design theme Digital Magic theme. And if you look closely it says it was done by Designer 0901006, not Robinson BT! Which is kind of cool as well. Nice to see a Designer introducing one of the other designers. Good work.
hi rezn, i beileve you have consued my !6 theme with another, as mine has only been out for 2 weeks, and has always had the full icon set (courtesy of bbthemelabs.com) so mines actually the newsest i think, and never been incomplete in that sense. Plus the one i believe you mean was a paid one and mine is free :)
hope you dont mind me setting you straight on that :)
Thanks rezn, you make a strong point about the zen icon-sets. Glad you liked the post
