Today’s tip comes from our reader, Peter. He found an awesome website dedicated to the BlackBerry Storm. This website has all kinds of fun and useful application for your beloved. There is even a section that is 5.0-compatible. Each listing clearly states their prices or whether they’re free.
If you’ve created an application for the Storm [...]
How many times do you receive a call in a bad area of your home and end up like the Verizon guy, “Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now?” I have to do that all the time in my apartment. There just happens to be a specific area on my couch gets [...]

You can also choose what information you want to include: home, work and/or mobile phone numbers, emails and PINs. Sadly, does not include a way to send addresses or any other information.
To activate [...]

Edit: Accuracy was improved while typing. The cover did not make my typing any faster but I did noticed that I was making fewer mistakes. I had chosen to use the Landscape cover for my typing because I became accustomed to Qwerty typing from my 8820.
The keyboard on the Storm is kind of [...]
Review: Speck Products Storm Cases

Cost: $24.95
So here I am, a month or so into my ownership of the Storm (the booing can cease now, thanks! ) and I have yet to purchase a decent case to protect it. I have to say that I love my Storm and no one is allowed to [...]
While perusing the PinStack forums, I ran across a post by Krazy Kat. It just happened to be a download link for Verizon’s VCast Song ID for the Storm. I downloaded and tested it out and it works really well with my Storm on T-Mobile. I guess they really are not keeping tight control on [...]

NOTE: This post/review is aimed at the ladies.
Oh how the tracking of our monthly cycles on a calendar that sometimes gets lost has become a thing of past. The new, modern way of tracking turned to our BlackBerrys. BEIKS has decided to help us achieve this [...]

One thing I cannot stand is how RIM is continuously missing the small things when it comes to building the dream OS for our precious BlackBerrys. For instance, a lot of people have been getting irritated of the Storm’s autotilt feature. Disabling and enabling should be a NATIVE feature in the Storm’s OS but [...]
Review: SMS Scheduler – Schedule Future SMS Messages

I can count how many times I was supposed to text something to someone and forgot. I can also count how many times I was supposed to text something to someone by a certain time and forgot. So I was intrigued to [...]

Review: WildCharger – Wireless Charging Unit For BlackBerry
Rating:
Cost: $79.99 For Pad & Skin
We, BlackBerry Addicts, are constantly running our batteries down; whether or not we’d like to admit it. And many of us don’t like to lug around travel chargers or USB cords. So for this exact reason, the good people at WildCharge came [...]

I have learned 2 things while owning a BlackBerry. As a BlackBerry addict, I have come to the conclusion that my precious 8120 needs to be protected at all times (&^%$, another darn scratch. Hurry! Find my soft towel! It needs to be buffed!). As a mother, I have come to the conclusion that [...]
Like most 8120 owners, I love my WIFI, but I was bummed at not having GPS like the 8110. GPS is a big deal since I like to travel. But I’ve noticed that most receivers can be bulky and remembering to grab it can be rather cumbersome. So when the opportunity came up to review [...]
Review: SMS Eraser

Price: $29.95
I was looking through the BerryReview Store and noticed an application called SMS Eraser and I was intrigued by the description: The ability to have SMS or MMS messages self destruct after 1 or 2 views or after 15 seconds.
I thought to give it a try. I downloaded the program and [...]

This is integrated into PeeKaWho [...]
