People have been complaining about being locked into iTunes for ages. Truthfully I have always been of the opinion that they brought it upon themselves by buying DRM music. A new freeware solution called doubleTwist hopes to help people from under the shackles of iTunes to liberate their music.

RIM finally released a press release about their BlackBerry Bluetooth Music Gateway (first seen at CES) today at the Mobile World Congress. You can read it below.

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.
