When Google Maps 3.2 was released a bit ago I got all excited about being able to overlay the NYC subway on top of the map view. I was saddened to learn that this feature was not available at launch though it was available in other markets.

Right after Verizon’s announcement Sprint has also made theirs for the BlackBerry Curve 8530. The first question we asked them is if the 8530 will ship with OS 5.0 and they said and I quote “it should.” They also confirmed that the 8530 will be shipping with the BlackBerry App World preloaded.
You can [...]
Ronen and I have had our hands on the Bold 9700 for a couple of days now, so I guess its time for some first thoughts.
Summary: In my opinion, best BlackBerry yet–hands down.
Although the high end style and functionality of the Bold 9700 makes for a perfect comparison to the original Bold, I find [...]

We told you about the BlackBerry Messenger outage happening since Nov 1st and we got confirmation this morning that the outage is supposedly resolved according to RIM. The crazy part is that it took RIM more than three and a half days to resolve the issue. It looks like a reboot may be in order [...]
Here is another update from Google but this time it is a bit confusing. When you head to m.google.com/mail it says the version available is 2.0.6 but if you hit the download button it gives you v2.0.7.
Jason let me know about this update on his BlackBerry 9700 and I confirmed this on my AT&T [...]

The device will be available on [...]
Here I was under the impression that after all the ETF class action lawsuits we would finally see the demise of the ETF. Turns out I was wrong. The BoyGenius confirmed that Verizon is planning on raising their Early Termination Fee for “Advanced Devices” up to $350. Verizon is kind enough to lower the [...]
Looks like Google just put up a quick bug fix for Google Maps. Josep let me know that you can now download Google Maps v3.2.1 from Google’s website. In typical Google fashion there is no change log so its time to play guess what Google fixed!

We mentioned the new USPS mobile website last month which was pretty useful. What’s even better is that a USPS employee let us know that they are coming out with a BlackBerry app in December!
I am always shocked that there is no good app for tracking packages on your BlackBerry. You would think it would [...]

While I wasn’t technically a beta tester on Ninja’s latest theme design ‘Shelved’, I was able to get a preview of it prior to its release. Now, I’m not generally a fan of these ‘shelf’ type themes but I have to admit that if I was gonna go for one, this would be it. On [...]
