Hayden has scored once again by getting details on one of the nichiest (is that a word?) accessory for BlackBerry devices. It is called the Bayalink Liberty and it has a very specific function.

I was just reading a great post on BlackBerryForums.com by Sci-Tek where he mentions 3 different SNAKE games that work or may work on BlackBerry devices.
