Future Shop, Canada’s largest electronics superstore, has decided to join the BlackBerry Revolution with a couple of new features. The first is what they call a “Mobile Browser” which in reality is little more than a home screen shortcut to their mobile website with a few added menu options. The second, and in my opinion [...]

You know you have a good idea when others start copying you. I was just reading about the Motorola Napoleon Q9 on BoyGenius when I things started sounding familiar. How many Dual CDMA/GSM Verizon worldphones are there?
Turns out that the phone has a CDMA radio with EVDO Rev A! (Come on RIM) It also includes [...]

I was just reading a great article on CrackBerry giving a look at some of RIM’s upcoming BlackBerry accessories. Some of the stuff is new like a personalized stereo headset. I also am starting to really warm up to these battery covers. The batteries look nice and slick but who ever really shows one off. [...]

I know some of you are using LaunchPads as your shortcut utility so I thought I would let you know about the last two updates. Phil sent me a link telling me that this latest update has improved a bit of the functionality to really round out the application. I also thought the rudimentary backup [...]

I just got an email from Josep about BlackBerryTracker going opensource. We mentioned BlackBerryTracker back in February. It is a great bare bones BlackBerry GPS tracking service. The best part is that the server and client software code is now available as an opensource download under the OpenLBS name. It is released under the Apache [...]

- SMS send delay/fault has been resolved

I was enjoying a relaxing 4th of July weekend but [...]

The BerryReview BlackBerry IQ Quiz is my wife’s brainchild. The whole team got behind the idea and we can now present you with some of the hardest BlackBerry trivia questions we could come up with, 30 in all. I mean it when I say this quiz is HARD so don’t be disappointed if you don’t [...]

UPDATE: May be a false alarm. This seems to have application version 4.5.0.37 in a 4.5.0.52 build…
UPDATE #2: Looks like a false alarm. I just thought this was too good to be true and it was. Forgive me for getting your hopes up… Still waiting for confirmation.
UPDATE #3: Confirmed this is a false alarm. Once [...]

CarRentals.com now has a mobile version of their site. Like the standard online website version, the mobile version allows you to type in the appropriate zip code or airport code and then searches many (if not all) of the local car rental agencies in that area (Avis, Hertz, etc).

Select one and then indicate the dates you wish to reserve [...]

When I wrote about Anyvite being better than Evite because it has mobile access Nikolaus corrected me. It turns out that Evite does have a mobile website. It is not a bad mobile website but it is lacking in two major features:
First of all if you go to www.evite.com from your BlackBerry it does not [...]
