Now Available: BlackBerry Desktop Software v6.0.1.18 for Windows

Good morning Nerds, I just got in to the office and I plugged my BlackBerry Bold 9700 running OS 6 in to my PC and to my surprise there is a BlackBerry Desktop Software update! I thought to myself I knew this day would come soon just not this soon. We just saw the official release of the BlackBerry Desktop Software for Mac yesterday. I am now in the process of downloading the newly updated version 6.0.1.18 to my PC. While it is downloading I went online to the BlackBerry website to find the release notes.
