The guys from Aerize just let us know that E-mail Alerts just got an upgrade (Free upgrade to current users) to 1.2.0 and the features just keep getting better.
Aerize is one of my favorite applications for my berry, since it lets me preview my messages even when am in the middle of using another application, if the message seems important I can choose to read it or keep doing whatever am working on. Some of the new features that the press release mentions are:
- Display of Contact Images
- HTML email support
- Separate Email and SMS inbox access
- Mark as Read
- SMS support
- Keyboard shortcuts (Visit link For a list of shortcuts)
- Queue based interface
- Dismiss all, as well as configurable alerts
- Now we are pioneering stability!
- New stacked button layout optimized for the BlackBerry Storm
- Supports both Bold and the Storm with

Now if your not a user yet you can download a free trial for 7 days and it Just gets better Aerize is giving you a chance to get your self a free copy and here is how:
“Help us get the word out and you could get a free copy. Okay, with one slight catch… You must create a new post on the Internet helping announce the new version, with a click-able link back to the Aerize Alerts web page ( http://aerize.com/blackberry/software/alerts/ ). Maybe an explanation of your favorite feature, perhaps an appealing reason for a new user, even praise of our product would work. Simply email us the URL to the posting, and if you are one of the first 25 people we will set you up with a free version. And yes, you can give it to someone else if you want”
So grad a free trial if or upgrade and maybe you will be one of the lucky ones to get a copy of this great application, thanks to www.Aerize.com

Is there an OTA link to download this? I can’t find one on their site.
Thanks!

When I was downloading it the version was 1.1.2 and when installed it says 1.2. Strange!

One more question – is there a way to have this work with Gmail application for BB? I get my gmail through that application specifically but the alerts don’t seem to work for that.

For the strom users, I would wait before upgrading/installing. Some of us are having issues in which sms displays the pop up, but email doesn’t.
Separate Email and SMS inbox access doesn’t work either.

Aerize is great for when you are using the speakerphone so you can just glance down and see who the message is from and if it is possibly something relevant to the call at hand. That’s one thing I really like about using Aerize on the Bold. I also have a 8900 and without the 3G it sucks not being able to send messages and use the phone at the same time.
