Mark McQueen has a great article at Seeking Alpha about Jim Balsillie’s latest comments at Scotia Capital Tech/Telecom Conference. I always knew the Jim liked to talk big but calling the new BlackBerry Unite Platform the Holy Grail might be a bit premature. I realize that it would be awesome to have all those features [...]

It seems that after all the hubbub about GPS being locked down on the Verizon 8830 there is finally a way to use Verizon’s Navigator service on your 8830. A new patch that Simon at BBCool caught opens up the door for Verizon 8830’s to work with the Verizon Navigator GPS application. If you remember [...]

I just read a great Knowledgebase article on RIM’s website that compares the RIM Facebook application with the regular Facebook mobile website. It is pretty details and I found it to be quite a good read. You can catch the full comparison after the jump or at the following link.

I have been seeing multiple reports about a statement by Research in Motion (RIM) vice-president of customer accounts, Gregory Wade, who spoke to Business Standard for an article that was posted today.
He is quoted saying:

We will also announce another 4-5 models in 2008 and all of them would be packed with consumer-friendly applications and design.

PhoneScoop has just discovered some FCC goodness in a filing by RIM. This is that same 8120 WiFi-Berry you have heard about earlier. It seems that the upcoming 8120 will have UMA but as we mentioned earlier no GPS. The thing that always irks me about these new WiFi devices is why they sometimes come [...]

Well the announcement has come out early this year with the new WES 2008 being held in Orlando, Florida from May 13th to the 15th. This is always the biggest BlackBerry event of the year and it promises to be the biggest ever. (not saying much ) Many new products and services are announced at [...]

Simon at BBcool just caught wind of the 4.2.1 OS update for the BlackBerry 8703e. This is big news for Verizon and CDMA users since they have been left out in the cold since the GSM version of 4.2 has been out for months. The reason so many people care is that many of the new [...]

I just read an interesting interview RIM ran in the Small Business Editon of their newsletter this month. They interview Yahoo! EVP Marco Boerries about the Push 2–way sync now available for BlackBerry devices. Personally the 2–way push is old news but I found that the content pointed towards much more cooperation between RIM and [...]

Simon at BBcool has heard from the grapevine that we should be expecting to see BlackBerry Unite in the US sometime in early December. If you remember from before BlackBerry Unite is a quasi-BES solution for personal users to share documents, media, calendar, and contacts with up to 5 people. RIM has been teasing us [...]

I just read a very interesting FAQ article on RIM’s Knowledgebase. The article discusses an issue with Belkin routers and the 8320 and 8820 WiFi-berry’s. It turns out that when you connect these berry’s to a Belkin router it may cause your BlackBerry to reboot. The interesting part is that RIM recommends you update to [...]
