I spotted this application by BluePepper Technologies sneaking into the store. They created an application that makes it easy to initiate a 3 way conference call. Its not all that hard to do it now but this takes a few steps out of the equation.
Product description in the store:
Have you tried to make 3 way calls from your BlackBerry? Frustrating, isn’t it?
EZ3Way is the easiest and fastest way to make 3-way calls with your BlackBerry.
Make 3-way calls right from your Address Book. Simply choose two people you want to talk to and press call.
Features:
- Fastest 3 Way Call Set Up
- Use your Phone Book Entries
- Makes it Easy on Your BlackBerry!
- Simple, as easy as 1, 2, 3!
It is currently available for a hefty $19.95 until August 31st after which it jumps even higher to $29.95. They also seem to have a trial if you want to give it a spin. Not really sure if it is worth such a high price. Maybe $5 or $10 max would be more in line.

Nice idea for the app. I would be interested, but not at 19.95 and especially not at 29.95

This will be one of those BlackBerry applications that almost never sell. It is really not that hard to make a 3-way call from you BlackBerry as it is. I can’t imagine that many will pay 20 bucks or more to do something that they can already do for free.
