Hands On With New Picasa Application For BlackBerry
January 7th, 2008 by Ronen Halevy
Well I know I was disappointed when the first Picasa application came out since it was just a homescreen link to the Picasa login page. While I was at the RIM booth one of the reps kindly showed me a demo of the new Picasa application for BlackBerry that will be released soon (couldn’t nail them on a date). If you are like me I am sure you will enjoy the live screenshots of the application below.
So far I know the application ties into the BlackBerry camera and also allows you to geotag and tag your photos before you upload them.

Shockingly that is not a decalgirl skin. It is a sticker skin made by Scott Campbell. He is some sort of famous Tattoo artist that RIM brought to CES. He also release the theme for free.
I asked a bunch of the reps at RIM’s booth and even they could not understand the connection between a tattoo artist and consumer electronics.
