Dr. Devious recently posted a theme on Themes4BB called ‘Google Android’ for the Blackberry Curve. I like the pretty main page image of a tranquil sunset along with the cool looking icons. The top bar clearly shows battery and network indicator along with the time and date. Very easy to read. According to Dr. Devious, [...]

It looks like carriers are on a roll with official OS 4.5 releases this week. JSanders spotted OS 4.5.0.77 officially on the Cellular South website for the 8330 with the help of Garz08 on BBForums. Sadly the 8830 received no such love but hopefully that is coming soon. Got to love how these unofficial betas [...]

More information was released today, mostly about the multimedia capability of the Storm. They talked about the 3.2 mega pixel camera, the ability to shoot [...]

Peter just let me know that eVeek has just made their 4 premium themes for OS 4.2 & 4.3 free for all. Pretty cool if I may say so myself. These themes are not groundbreaking but I know a few people who are sporting them with pride. This is not a limited time offer so [...]

A friend of mine told me about this theme for his Bold and I was impressed. I did not have a chance to take a screenshot of it on the Bold but trust me it looks good. This is the same reflex theme that we have seen before but it finally got a touch of [...]

CDMA EV-DO revision A
Quadband EDGE AND 2100MHz HSPA

Tom let me know that MyPoynt has updated their application to support the Bold. All you lucky… can pick up the updated version at m.mypoynt.com. Make sure you have emulation set to “BlackBerry” in your browser options or else the site will not recognize your Bold.
Sorry could not get a screenshot of the Bold running [...]

Gareth sent me a link to a user guide that RIM has just released for the Bold. This has to be one of the coolest flash animations that RIM has ever released. Its like a book where you flip pages and all. Nothing groundbreaking here or anything but this just looks cool. You have to [...]

Compared to the Storm the 8220 has not been getting as much rumor love. On the other hand both T-Mobile and Rogers now have the 8220 up on their websites with a registration form. You can fill out the form and be the last first to know about the release. To be honest I [...]
