Another tip from our secret agents brings us OS 4.6.0.162 for the BlackBerry Bold AKA 9000 device. The 4.6.0.154 release was pretty solid with its smaller memory leak issue but hopefully that will be improved in this version.
Bold OS 4.6.0.162 was found at:

BlackBerry® Media Sync
BlackBerry® Pearl™ 8220 [...]

I heard that this was going to be released a few weeks back but I waited until it was actually available to mention it. Handmark has launched Jeopardy (I am tired of hitting caps for the whole word) for BlackBerry for a stiff $14.99 with no trial. The game looks like the classic computer game [...]

Chad from Themes4BB.Com just sent me a tip that the popular mobile download site, TuneUsIn.Com is now going mobile. Now you will be able to download their ringtones, wallpapers, videos, etc. right from your Blackberry device through their optimized mobile site.

The client supposedly works with Skype, Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo [...]

Just heard from David that E*Trade’s Mobile application now works on the Bold. Not sure how many people are trading with the current situation and also have a Bold but at least E*Trade is still updating the application instead of just leaving it stagnant.
