- Added support for HTML email (OS 4.5+)
- Added support for WiFi status (OS 4.3+)
- New Speed Keys (formerly SpeedDial)…allows you to map a key to a person to either Call them (speeddial), Email them or Text them!
- Added the ability to use Native Blackberry Day/Week/Month calendar views instead of PocketDay’s
- New Screen Setup function to set the screen order and set colors.
- Added the ability to use the Native Blackberry Keylock function instead of PocketDay’s.
- Added many new RSS feeds (they are all dynamically fetched from our servers now)
- Contact selection (speeddial, calendar,tasks – OS 4.3+) can now choose any contact regardless of whether they have an email address

I attempted to download the trial of both the personal and the professional versions. Both would not open stating the trial period had expired. Just an FYI. At these prices, I am unwilling to purchase something I couldn’t test drive.

I have been a PD user for some time now. Besides the obvious summary screen stuff, the key launcher feature, “add email as todo” and voice mail alert features are huge for me.
