Larry has updated the BlackBerry Bold 9000 Zen theme he released earlier with a Today version that I thought was worth mention. I guess he answered my wish.
The new version is similar to the old but obviously it now has a clean today screen. There is also an updated battery meter, menu lists, profiles and [...]

MonkeyBizIU has struck again with another great theme called AeroBerry for the 8300 series. The theme is a bit Vista looking but all in all I like it. The icons are really slick and glossy. The today screen and Zen screen are both really sharp.
The theme comes in Zen, Icon, & Today format. Sadly it [...]

All you NASCAR fans rejoice. Tammy has released a Jeff Gordon fan theme for the BlackBerry 8300 which looks really good. The icons are custom and look nice but I think the added bubble around them is unnecessary. The top bar is just downright cool with a gauge for coverage and battery life. I like [...]

Bplay just released four slick Star Wars themes that I thought looked really well done. I know I grew up on this stuff so I am a bit biased but see for yourself.
The themes are all in Zen format and feature one for Hans Solo, Anakin Skywalker, Boba Fett, & Darth Vader so far. The [...]

I just found another theme creation from MonkyBizIU sent to us by a reader. This latest is a iPhone knockoff theme in all Zen, Icon, & Today formats. The background is awesome in my opinion. The only problem I had was that the Today screen was really hard to read since the text was white [...]

NancyDrew released a theme a bit back that caught my eye but I completely forgot about it. The theme is based on Tiffany’s and comes in a today format with a Zen and Icon format for select devices. The theme has a really cool background and the icons are custom and fit the theme perfectly. [...]

Larry Farmer hooked us all up with a free theme that gives you the 9000 BlackBerry Bold series look without the device. It looks pretty damn cool with the background and all. I love the icons and the top bar fits in perfectly. Text is pretty good but I wish he would offer the theme [...]

I just got confirmation from one of our longtime readers, another Ronen, that the BlackBerry Unite version from Bell works on AT&T and is not carrier dependent!!!
Pretty amazing stuff. He got the Bell-Canada copy, installed it and it is working amazingly on his at&t blackberry. It looks awesome, can sync and share: Calendar, Contacts, access [...]

Sadly I find it very hard to get excited about a year old device that is finally making its way [...]

We have mentioned a few themes by Geenyc before but he recently emailed me about one of his more interesting creations. This theme is completely based off scrabble and is quite fun to look at. It is not the sharpest or most beautiful theme out there but I thought the use of letters as application [...]
