Some people have been tired of the BlackBerry image & picture manager and have purchased Ascendo Photos to remedy the situation. Ascendo Photos Version 3 brings a few more features to the table that easily top those of the built in media manager on your BlackBerry.
The new version brings users the ability to save and store images on your SD card which was a necessary step since previously Ascendo could not do that. The also added the cool feature of being able to play audio during a slideshow.
If you don’t currently own a copy of Ascendo Photos you can pick it up at the BerryReview store for $29.95. Keep in mind the 20% off discount we have going until the 29th which brings the total down to $23.96. I would advise trying out the free trial before you buy. For some the extra features may be overkill.
