You might remember us mentioning CacheBerry a bit back. It is a paperless geocaching utility for your BlackBerry. In case you forgot below is a simple explanation of Geocaching from Geocaching.com:
Geocaching is an entertaining adventure game for GPS users. Participating in a cache hunt is a good way to take advantage of the wonderful features and capability of a GPS unit. The basic idea is to have individuals and organizations set up caches all over the world and share the locations of these caches on the internet. GPS users can then use the location coordinates to find the caches. Once found, a cache may provide the visitor with a wide variety of rewards. All the visitor is asked to do is if they get something they should try to leave something for the cache.
It looks like it now supports OS 4.5 on the 8000 series devices and support for the media card. The app has a full 30 day trial after which it is $14.99. They have been pretty active with developing this beta. They also have an AMAZING CHANGELOG!!! (RIM could learn a thing or two from them)
