Live CES Pictures Of BlackBerry Remote Stereo Gateway

Okay I have to take an objective step back here and wonder if I missed something. While I was at CES I posted a LIVE picture and details about the BlackBerry Remote Stereo Gateway. Mind you I had the device in hand at the RIM CES booth and even got to try it out. (I [...]

Registration For WES 2008 Now Open - Early Bird Discount

I just got an email from RIM that registration for WES (Wireless Enterprise Symposium) 2008 is now open for registration. Many people have been waiting for this since RIM started the countdown to WES in November last year.
WES is the biggest RIM event of the year and from what I can tell it will be [...]

New RIM Campaign - Ask Somebody Why They Hate Their BlackBerry

I am proposing a response to RIM’s “Ask Somebody Why They Love Their BlackBerry” marketing campaign we told you about earlier. Our campaign will rightfully be titled “Ask Somebody Why They Hate Their BlackBerry.” RIM has never made an open push to ask users what they feel could be improved in their BlackBerry devices. This [...]

Ask Someone Why They Love Their BlackBerry?

RIM has started an interesting new marketing campaign called “Ask Someone Why They Love Their BlackBerry.” The idea is that RIM has a few featured owners sharing their love for the BlackBerry. On top of that RIM is asking users to submit their story of why they love their Berrys.
RIM has a whole philosophy as [...]

Pink BlackBerry 8130 Pearl Coming To Verizon Tomorrow

Remember those bad pictures we had of the Pink and Red BlackBerrys at CES? Well the first of them is about to come to light tomorrow on Verizon. The Pink BlackBerry 8130 is coming right in time for Valentines Day this year. I wonder how RIM and Verizon are going to spin it. Nothing changed [...]

The client runs natively on BlackBerry smartphones to provide users with access to Lotus Connections social software for business. According to RIM the client will be free when it [...]

RIM Makes More Promises At Lotusphere 2008

RIM has recently been making some serious promises and has yet to deliver on any of them. The funny part is that they keep their new devices under tight wrap until they are released but when it comes to software they just talk and talk for months in advance. These scheduled updates will (supposedly ) [...]

RANT! What Happened To Native HTML Email?

I an email with Josep of Miblackberry he reminded me about a RIM powerpoint released in October 2007 showing the BlackBerry Server roadmap. This powerpoint mentioned clearly that BES 4.1.5 was supposed to bring Rich Content and HTML to BlackBerry emails.

My question is what ever happened to BES 4.1.5? We are waiting RIM! BBSmart and Empower have [...]

How To: Activate / Unlock Free Vendor Themes Free

I have to start off this post by saying that these instructions probably do not work for the 8130. With that said Rcbjr (AKA Richard ) has kindly allowed us to republish the great instructions he posted on PinStack.com on how to unlock vendor themes. Yes these are the same instructions we referenced before but [...]

Gracenote Mobile MusicID - Help Them Convince RIM!

While I was at CES I came across a live demo Gracenote on a BlackBerry 8300 Curve. Most of you will have no idea what Gracenote is unless you have used it before. Gracenote is a whitelabel software company that provides software for devices to manage and identify music. Whitelabel means that they don’t sell [...]
