This is an idea I bounced off a bit back and I am glad it finally got some traction. A friend of mine asked me about 2 months ago if there was a way to ignore a incoming call and automatically reply with an SMS message. He told me that he had this option on [...]

RIM seems to be all over the place recently. First they seem to be involved in the product placement music video by Wil.i.am which was creative. Then they started promoting the Bold on their website months before its release with a consumer focused appeal. They are even advertising on Google Adwords (which has slowed down [...]

A few days ago I heard about MTS Mobility releasing OS 4.5.0.56 for the 8130 & 8330 but the links did not work when you tried to download it. Frank just checked today and the links now work. This is not the latest OS for either of these devices but if you are one who [...]

Rogers just sent out their launch kit for the Bold. Kevin at CrackBerry managed to get a few snaps of it courtesy of Treatz. Lucky Ba$+@rd!

Thanks to Michael & Randy for sending this one in!
UPDATE: Turns out you can get the same pictures with yet another watermark at BBNews

BoyGenius has scored some of Nextel’s upcoming lineup for 2008. Inside the coverage was some great information and screencandy on the 8350i Nextel iDen Curve. I am sure many Nextel fans will love appreciate the fact that RIM packed this 2 year old device with a nice software overhaul (OS 4.6) and a ton of [...]

I don’t know how many people use TeleFlip but I know I use it every once in awhile. It was a very simple service. You sent an email to phonenumber@teleflip.com and it would automatically convert the email to an SMS message and sent it to the phone number specified. It even let non-smartphone users get [...]

Josep sent me this article and I just had to share. I was really laughing hard when I finished reading it. I have to say that I have had the same conversations with my wife about my BlackBerry addiction. My wife is about to get her own CrackBerry BlackBerry from work so I am curious [...]

Frank sent in this interesting game from AIM productions. It reminds me of an old game I used to play on my commodore 64 called Prisoners Escape. You essentially need to shuffle up the puzzle to get a certain car out of the garage. Its kind of like getting out of a parking garage in [...]

Josep just let me know about the release of these two betas. From the forums it seems like they were released about 2 weeks ago so I am sure many of you know about it already. For those of you who didn’t (including myself) consider this a heads up. Feel free to rag on [...]

After CrackBerry, BoyGenius, & BBNews gave us some tastes of the Bold some production reviews have started to show up around the web.
Here are two good ones that I found:

Great review by Australian APC mag that even covers the DivX & XviD support found on the Bold. They also do some great comparison shots with [...]
