RIM’s Success Due To Carriers Or The iPhone?

Since RIM announced their amazing results this quarter I have been hearing so many different stories as to why. These stories range from the logical to the downright fanciful. One news source even blamed it on a chronic BlackBerry addiction sweeping the nation.

What Google Is Doing Right With Android

I was just reading a post on the official Google Mobile blog about Androids first 5 months of existence. Some of these things are stuff RIM should have been doing ages ago. Also note by the way the fact that RIM does not even have an official blog beyond press releases that come days after [...]

RIM Doubles Their Revenue

RIM has astounded many with Q4 and year end revenue that doubles the previous year. Most of the growth is attributed to device sales with 2.18 million new subscribers in the last quarter of 2007.
In short RIM is doing very well… I will leave it at that. For the sake of all the people out there who actually [...]

High Hopes For New RIM BlackBerry Support Community Forums

First things first… I was talking to myself yesterday about all the things RIM should really do and this was not even on the list. Do we really need another forum dedicated to BlackBerry?

Review: Guitar Hero Mobile For BlackBerry

Review: Guitar Hero Mobile by Magmic/BplayRating: 9/10Cost: $14.99 (1 time fee) or $4.49/month subscriptionWebsite: www.bplay.com

Verizon Wireless Announces BlackBerry 8330 Curve… For MAY!!!

I always love when carriers just shoot themselves in the foot. Verizon announced today that they will release the 8330 in… wait for it… May. Talk about seriously dangling the proverbial carrot. All the other carriers have had the Curve for months! Oh an by the way WES is in… May.

Magmic has come through on their release schedule by putting out two new games today. The best part is that they have managed to get a 24 hour trial for Big Kahuna Words. This is a big step for Bplay since many previous games did not have trials. Hopefully this will pan out for more [...]
