Skylab let me know that they have updated their free LiveTracker application to allow you to launch the remote tracking control via SMS or when your BlackBerry is rebooted. This is not the biggest upgrade in the beta but I really like the LiveTracker application so I was just looking for an excuse to [...]

OpenTable along with quite a few readers (TTune, Tashanna, etc.) let us know about a new application they have released for their service. We mentioned back in May that they released an application but this version seems to be much more refined. The only downside is that it only supports OS 4.5+ and is only [...]

Not many users know about Gokivo Navigator but if I am not mistaken this is the navigation that powers Verizon’s VZ Navigator service. They have just announced support for much of Europe including the previously supported US and Canada offerings.
From what I can tell it is supported on the Bold and 8900 Curve but [...]

Adam let me know that the popular Trapster application has been updated from version 3.1.0 to 3.2.5. The last update to 3.1.0 was pretty significant so hopefully this one adds some much needed functionality. Sadly there is no official change log but if somebody manages to scrounge one up that would be great!
Check it out [...]

Tateu has been doing a wonderful job of taking over the BBWeather application. Tom let me know that he has released a new version with experimental GPS support for your location. Personally I don’t find it so hard to put in your own zip code but this makes life simpler. The GPS only really [...]

Jerry let me know about this popular free app called Travel Genius. Sadly it makes use of BlackBerry Maps for mapping so I could not really try it on my AT&T BlackBerry so I will resort to the description they provide. Sadly the app is also only available in the App World so you will [...]

Nogago let me know about their free application that lets you track your outdoor activities. Its pretty cool for a free app but there are already other solutions that offer similar features. The cool feature in Nogago is the ability to navigate along prerecorded tracks from the many GPS track communities online.
Features include:
Measure the [...]

This is a slick app that I think would really take off if only it worked on more devices. It simply shows you where you are on a map and sets that as your homescreen background. The main problem is that it only works with the 9500 Storm GSM version so even 9530 CDMA [...]

I hate when Google does this and doesn’t let us know what changed. Nikolaus let me know that the Google Mobile App has been updated from 3.3.38 to version 3.4.8.
I have no idea what is new but the last update to the app gave you access to voice searching and cell tower “My Location” [...]

Robert let me know about Centrl which is another slick looking location based social network. The problem with most of these networks is that you need to have friends on them to be tempted to install it. Google got this easily with Google Maps since so many people already have it installed for Latitude. [...]

I am liking this trend. The developer of the 3rd party BrightKite client for BlackBerry we told you about has released his code as Open Source in hopes of speeding up development. As a reminder BrightKite is a mix of Twitter with a lightweight Facebook community style interface that throws in your location into the [...]
