I have been asked countless times how to unlock all those slick themes on your BlackBerry. The nice part is that these well designed RIM themes are very good (I personally use the Vodaphone theme on AT&T) and are totally free once you unlock them.

I just discovered a great new feature in GoogleTalk that I thought might interest some. The new version of Google Talk allows you save a Google Talk Contacts picture onto your BlackBerry.
