A short description of nuTsie:
nuTsie is a new mobile and online music service that allows anyone to listen to their iTunes music and playlists in hi-fi quality [...]

Not long ago RIM relented and gave us a MP3 player, external media, and a standard headphone jack. Since then they have made some small improvements but the features and options are still pitiful! When OS 4.3 came out on the 8130 I was hoping for some nice additions but still nothing. So now we are hearing [...]

Review: Bose Triport IE Headphones
Rating: 8/10
Link: www.bose.com
Cost: ranges around $99
Now, I might be a bit biased towards this review as just about every bit of sound hardware I have has the Bose logo printed on it somewhere. Home entertainment, outdoor sound system, iPod docking station and even my clock radio is all in this [...]

Kevin Doel from FlipSide just sent me an email about a new update to the FlipSide MP3 player we told you about before. The new version allows BlackBerry users to get Last.fm auto-scrobbling support with FlipSide. What that means is that when you listen to a song, the name of the song is sent to Last.fm and [...]

While I was at CES I came across a live demo Gracenote on a BlackBerry 8300 Curve. Most of you will have no idea what Gracenote is unless you have used it before.

Hayden just posted on PinStack about a new commercial radio streaming application for BlackBerry. I will start off by mentioning the fact that this application has no trial which will turn off many potential users but hopefully we will review it soon.
The PocketStreamer application is now available for the 8100 Pearl, 8300 Curve, and 8800 [...]

The BlackBerry mascot is still touting the old 8100 Pearl style. I guess they only have 4 fingers on each hand in Canada. Just thought you would get a kick out of seeing somebody with a job worse than yours. Not sure if it is a guy or a gal underneath there but either way I am curious [...]

While playing around listening to some music and watching video on my BlackBerry 8310 I discovered something I had never known before. In my previous Rant! about the video options on the BlackBerry I mentioned my frustration about the fast forward and rewind increments on the BlackBerry media player.
