The first application in this roundup has a big name: Flashlight Pro For BlackBerry - 60 MINUTES Edition v3.0 , by Link-two.首次應用在這方面有一個綜合的大名稱： 手電筒親黑莓-6 0分鐘版V 3.0的，由連結2 。 But in my Blackberry’s Home screen it’s called simply Flashlight .但在我的BlackBerry的主屏幕，它的所謂簡單的手電筒 。 The first problem with it is evident as soon as it is launched: it won’t light up .第一問題很明顯，盡快，因為這是展開： 它不會輕。 Instead, it displays a menu.相反，它顯示一個菜單。 That’s not exactly what we expect from a flashlight, is it?這不正是我們所期望從一個手電筒，是嗎？ It certainly is nice in the very first time you turn it on and configure it, but then it doesn’t make a lot of sense.這當然是很好，在很您第一次打開它和配置，但它不作出了很多重要意義。 It also defeats the purpose of assigning one of the convenience buttons on either side of the device to the flashlight, which I know that some people do - probably not with this application.它也敗的目的，指派一個方便的按鈕，任何一方的設備到手電筒，我知道有些人做的-大概不會同這個應用程式。

The menu offers several timer modes, from 1 minute to 90 minutes.菜單中提供了幾種定時器的模式，從1分鐘至90分鐘。 I was intrigued, of course.我當時推出的，當然。 First, why does anyone need these timers?第一，為何沒有人需要這些計時器？ I thought to myself: maybe it’s so you don’t have to hold it so you have your hands free to do something else like read a book or change a tire.我想：也許它的，這樣您就不必舉行，它使您的手中，免費做一些事情一樣，讀過一本書或改變輪胎。 OK, people, don’t laugh.確定，人民，不要笑啊。 Let’s just be sports and try to get in the spirit of the thing, shall we?讓我們只是體育和爭取在精神的東西，我們應？ My second surprise was that this particular version is called 60 Minutes Edition , but it will light up for 90 minutes apparently?我的第二個驚喜是，這一特定版本，是所謂的60分鐘版本 ，但是它會輕了90分鐘，顯然？ So I suppose the因此，我假設 30 Minutes Edition 30分鐘版 will light up for 60?將輕了60呢？ OK, that’s good!確定，即良好的！ A little confusing, but good.有點混亂，但良好。 Except that it doesn’t!除外，它不！ My Blackberry is configured to turn the screen off automatically after 30 seconds.我的黑莓是配置，把屏幕自動關閉後， 30秒。 Guess what: this flashlight app can’t stop that from happening.猜測：這手電筒應用程序不能阻止這種情況發生。 Then what sense do those timer options make at all?然後何種意義上做這些定時器的選項，使所有？ Well, it made a tiny little bit of sense after I delved into the Settings menu.那麼，它所作的一小點點意識後，我delved進入設置菜單。

That menu, by the way, is not very nice.這菜單上，由方式，是不是很好。 This application is one of those annoying weird (old?) ones that force you to click everything twice, because instead of activating the selected item directly, it will pop up a menu with rather dumb options like Select and Close , as if we couldn’t do these actions in a much more appropriate way.此應用程序之一，這些令人生厭的怪異（舊）的武力，您按下一切的兩倍，因為不是激活選定的項目直接，它會彈出一個菜單與選項，而不是啞巴一樣， 選擇和密切 ，如果我們能'噸做的這些行動，在一個更適當的方式。 Many applications do that and I hate it deeply.許多應用中這樣做，我恨它深刻。 Maybe it has to do with how older Blackberry devices used to work.也許這與老年人如何黑莓設備用於工作。 In a flashlight application, that is even worse.在手電筒的應用，這是更壞。 It should light up as soon as it is launched in the first place.它應輕了盡快推出，這是擺在首位。

That Settings menu reveals that Flashlight can activate the LED at the top of the device, for extra lighting.即設置菜單顯示， 手電筒也可以激活率領的上方裝置，為額外的照明。 That is one nice feature.這是一個不錯的特點。 There are five colors to choose from too, and that choice of color affects both the LED and the screen.有五種顏色可供選擇太，並選擇顏色既影響領導和屏幕上。 I am not sure about how useful these extra colors can be.我不知道如何有用的這些額外的顏色可以。 The white one certainly is the brightest one.白皮書之一，當然是最亮的一個。 Maybe you could use one of the other colors as some sort of communication signal.也許你可以利用其他的顏色作為某種形式的通信信號。 I don’t know.我不知道。

So I complained that Flashlight won’t prevent my screen from turning off after a few seconds.所以，我抱怨說， 手電筒 ，將不能阻止我的屏幕從關掉幾秒鐘後。 The LED won’t turn off though, and maybe it will endure a full 90 minutes, but either the LED or screen alone is not sufficient lighting.發光二極管將不會關閉，雖然，可能會忍受90分鐘，但無論是領導或屏幕上，僅是不足夠的照明。 You really need both to begin to think that this application is really useful.你真的需要雙方開始認為這是真正的應用是有用的。

That’s not a big deal so long as it lights up, and it does, but even with both the LED and screen lit up, it’s not impressive lighting by any standard.這不是一個大不了，只要它發亮，和它，但即使雙方領導和屏幕亮起來，這不是令人印象深刻的照明以任何標準來衡量。 It should be enough for you to walk around a house without treading toys or kicking furniture, but that’s about it.它應該足以讓你走動一所房子，沒有踏踢的玩具或家具，但的有關情況。 Don’t ever think you can really change a tire in the middle of the night with this flashlight application.千萬不要以為你真的可以改變一個輪胎在半夜三更這個閃光的應用。

There is also a “mirror mode”, which consists in turning the screen off so that it becomes dark and can (allegedly) be used as a mirror.此外，還有一項“明鏡模式” ，其中包括在把屏幕關閉，以便使它成為黑暗和可以（據稱）被用來作為一面鏡子。 Having it as a command makes sense because there is no way to turn a Blackberry screen off other than staring at it and waiting until it times out and goes out on its own.有它作為一個命令是有道理的，因為是沒有出路的，把黑莓屏幕上小康以外的凝望和等待，直到它的時代和熄滅它自己。 This command will turn it off immediately.此命令將關閉它立即。 But I’ve heard that not all Blackberry models/screens are suited to be used as mirrors.但我聽說過，並非所有黑莓模型/屏幕適合被用來作為鏡子。 Your mileage will vary.您的里程數會有所不同。

Finally, that stupid menu again.最後，愚蠢的菜單。 You can’t shut this application down with the Blackberry’s convenient Escape key.你不能關閉這個應用下跌與BlackBerry的方便逃生的關鍵。 You have to select the Exit option in the menu, then click the trackball, then click it again to activate Select - the only option this menu will ever display.你必須選擇退出選項，在菜單中，然後按一下軌跡球，然後按一下它再次激活選擇 -唯一的選擇此菜單將以往任何時候都顯示。

Pros: extra lighting from the LED. 利弊：額外的照明從主導。

Cons: won’t light up immediately; obsolete and very annoying menu system. 意見：將不會立即亮起;過時的和非常惱人的菜單系統。

My rating: 7 out 10, mostly because of the LED, it really makes a difference. 我的評價： 7 10 ，主要是因為發光二極管，它真正讓有差別。 The application itself is not very good.應用本身並不是非常好。
