BetteDavis has released a hot new theme on Themes4BB that I wanted to share with you. This Light Show theme brings a cool header bar that is translucent and looks very Vista-like. I love the custom icons she used. They are slick looking and it is still easy to identify their function. I just can’t [...]

The good guys over at CrackBerry.com celebrated their 1 year birthday yesterday by releasing two variations of a hot Zen bottom dock theme. The theme is designed by the cutting edge JC Designs/GadgetBean owner John.

The icons are very nice but did not come out as clean cut as I would expect when I installed the [...]

One of our readers, Carl, just sent us a tip that OtterBox has released their new case for the BlackBerry Pearl 8120 and 8130 for $49.95.

Below is an extract from their news email:

Review: SENA BlackBerry 8100 LeatherSkin CaseRating: 8/10Cost: $49.99Website: www.senacases.com
I decided to follow up the last SENA LeatherSkin review with a simpler design than the Alligator skin model we reviewed earlier. This model scores half a point higher for having a nicer leather but the leather is still not the same quality as the [...]

One of the moderators on Pinstack, UH8ME, caught wind of the first privacy screen for BlackBerry devices. The privacy screen is made by Case Mate and costs $14.99. It is available for the BlackBerry 8100, 8300, 8700, & 8800 series devices.
If you don’t know what a privacy screen is let me explain. The idea is [...]

Guess, one of the gurus at BlackBerryFAQ.com, has created a wonderful How-To for disassembling an 8100. I just stumbled across it but it has been around for a few months now. I find these instructions useful and enjoyable because I just love to see the guts of my electronics.
The pictures are awesome but if you want [...]

It’s been there for a few days now but I completely forgot about it. The Magmic game Disco Bowling is now available for free in the BlackBerry Owners Lounge. Personally I think RIM could have done a much better job with the Owners Lounge but I guess we have to live with what we get.

Marc has released a slick easy on the eyes Zen theme on BlackBerryForums called SimplyGreen. The theme comes in all 8100/8300/8800 flavours. I liked the clean lines of the theme so I thought I would share. Sadly there are no OTA links and the Desktop links are provided using the free Mediashare service. This is [...]

Late in January we mentioned Michael Small’s website www.blackberrythemes.co.uk. Michael has over 100 free themes available on his site for the 8100, 8300, & 8800 series devices but the site was crippled by the fact that it did not work in any other browser other than Internet explorer.

Well Michael has taken our concerns to heart and [...]

The theme costs a cool $6 for each version. The icons are hot and the theme is just plain sexy. You will see [...]
