I had forgotten about MidpSSH until Josep of MiBlackBerry reminded me of this wonderful free application. Personally I use Rove/Idokorro’s Mobile SSH application to access my servers but free applications are always useful for casual users. The only problem with MidpSSH is that it does not support input buffering like Idokorro’s Mobile SSH application. The [...]

There are two free applications for BlackBerry that allow you to post to your Mini-Blog from your BlackBerry. I am not personally into “Stream of consciousness” blogging but I have quite a few friends who post to their Twitter or Jaiku Blog daily. The two applications are free and seem to be quite useful:
TwitterBerry - [...]

I was reading an article on the New York Times website about this clever new service appropriately called Clever Commute. This email service is a peer to peer email mailing list where users with BlackBerry’s or other email enabled devices share commute advice with each other. The lists are highly moderated and specific to the [...]

BeamBerry is a free (for now) application that allows you to view certain attachments from your BlackBerry. The reason I am mentioning it is because they have just released Version 2.0 of BeamBerry that adds quite a few new features. I personally use BeamBerry as a backup for the native attachment viewing on my BlackBerry. [...]

It includes: Google Search, Google News, Gmail, and Google Maps in one install file with 4 different application icons on your home screen. It is easy to switch each application on and off by just [...]

Jon Fortt at Business 2.0 posted an interesting article on the best designed Bluetooth gear to date. About half of the gear is not relevant to us BlackBerry fans but I did find his mention of  5 different Bluetooth headsets to be of interest. Keep in mind his picks are based on design and style [...]

xPlayer is one of my favorite new applications for the BlackBerry. The media player reminds me of Winamp and just gets the job done with a very user friendly interface that now also has theme options. As I mentioned before it also helps that the software is completely free when compared to the competition and [...]
