Paul sent in a tip earlier that Google Maps has been updated from version 2.0.1 to version 2.0.2. As you may remember version 2 of Google Maps brought us location tracking VIA cellphone towers. This new version 2.0.2 has no changelog (come on Google!) and when I installed it I really could not tell any difference between [...]

The MiniMoni Traffic Monitor application that we have been mentioning over and over has finally released version 1.0. The biggest announcement is that the software will remain free but the developer is asking kindly for donations. Another big fix is that the code is now signed so the application can automatically start when you boot [...]

When we mentioned VideoStreams For BlackBerry before I was under the impression that it was a new company. It turns out that the application is actually designed by QuickPlay.com which previously had an unsuccessful video player for BlackBerry. So far the application seems to only be for OS 4.3 devices but I find it interesting that [...]

eVeek.com has just released another great free theme for the BlackBerry 8300 Curve and 8800 series devices. The theme is just a regular icon theme with no today or zen screen. The green coloring is quite hot and is my favorite color but I really wish they would have stuck with one shade. The dark [...]

They have created the website www.opencod.org to help host opensource BlackBerry software. You can read the announcement here. Jason has promised to post a free blogging application for BlackBerry on OpenCOD soon. The application is made [...]

We have gotten a ton of emails asking about the free EA Games that were supposed to be available after CES. It seems that “after CES” means not exactly after CES. I have heard no word back from RIM about the games so I can’t offer much more than that.
The website for the promo code [...]

I was just reading a Forbes article one of our readers, Michael, sent in that mentions that NewsGator is now giving away their mobile feed reader for free. The NewsGator Go! application used to cost a hefty $29.99 which was a terrible proposition compared to the free Viigo RSS reader. This may give Viigo a [...]

As we mentioned last night Yahoo has finally released the new Yahoo Go Beta for BlackBerry. The new version is meant to bring quite a few new features to the table including speed improvements and new map features. I am just installing it myself so I will let you know how it goes after CES [...]

I just noticed an announcement on RIM’s CES microsite about 3 free games from EA Mobile that will be available after CES. The games included are Skate, Medal of Honor, and SimCity for your BlackBerry. I guess this means that EA Mobile games for BlackBerry devices are finally out. I just checked out EA Mobile’s [...]

Not sure exactly which devices are compatible with this theme but I am sure It works on the Curve and Pearl series devices. The theme is actually quite slick and is designed by Scott Campbell the Tattoo artist. Scott is releasing a new line of decal stickers (called tattoos) for BlackBerry but I have not [...]
