Sadly over the years it stopped working in full screen on newer devices due to recent OS improvements. Fast forward to 2009 where <a href="http://www.blackberryos.com/forums/blackberryos-blog/6128-free-pacman-your-blackberry.html" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.blackberryos.com');" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">cslaten spotted</a> an <a href="http://www.bennychow.com/blackberry.shtml" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.bennychow.com');" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">update by Benny Chow</a> that brings full screen compatibility for the Bold, Tour, & 8900 Curve!

Sadly this upgrade adds an annoying advertising banner to the application… It is Ubertwitters choice on how to monetize their application but this may turn many off from the application since the BlackBerry screen is already pretty small to eat more real estate. Hopefully a paid version will also come out soon. Changes include: <ul> <li>Multiple Accounts – You can now configure multiple accounts, each with their own set of on-device preferences. </li> <li>You can now BLOCK people! </li> <li>Video Integration – We have partnered with <a href="http://www.twitvid.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.twitvid.com');" rel="nofollow">TwitVid.com</a> to offer you an outstanding video integration. </li> <li>Goto user – You can now enter twitter users name and go directly to their timeline </li> <li>URL Shortening – we’ve integrated with bit.ly so you can easily send those long URLs now and not bump up against the 140 limit </li> <li>MUCH faster photo uploads, significantly improving the user experience. </li> <li>Use of the internal GPS is now solidly supported with proper fallback to cell tower based location when GPS isn’t available. </li> <li>Icon Caching If you have and SD card, we will cache avatar icons on the card, increasing the speed of timeline displays and reducing network traffic. </li> <li>You can now select pictures and videos that have already been take and are on your device. The interface shows the most recent at the top and offers a preview so you can verify it is the picture/video you expected! </li> <li>When composing a tweet you can now insert symbols from a large selection of commonly available characters such as smiley’s, hearts, etc. </li> <li>Integrated advertisements – Please note, the ads are there to support the freely distributable version of ÜberTwitter. Users that purchase ÜberTwitter will not have advertisement in their version. </li> <li>We’ve streamlined the friends and followers lists </li> <li>You can now see both the number of friends, followers, and tweets sent when viewing the details of a tweet. </li> <li>Replying to a DM from the timeline will now correctly send a DM and not a regular tweet </li> <li>Fixed the bug in reply all where it would truncate some twitter user names </li> <li>Added reply all to the menu when viewing a tweet </li> </ul> You can pickup the update at <a title="http://ubertwitter.com/" href="http://ubertwitter.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/ubertwitter.com');" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://ubertwitter.com/</a> Kudos to <a href="http://www.blackberrycool.com/2009/08/ubertwitter-beta-4-now-available-for-free-download/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.blackberrycool.com');" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">BBCool</a> for the screenshot! <a href="http://www.berryreview.com/2009/08/12/ubertwitter-beta-4-released-adds-advertising-multiple-accounts/" rel="nofollow">Ubertwitter Beta 4 Released – Adds Advertising & Multiple Accounts!</a> Keeper on "BePub | ePub reader for BlackBerry [Update 9-Dec-2010]" http://www.berryreview.com/forums/topic/bepub-epub-reader-for-blackberry#post-13706 Sun, 15 May 2011 04:58:02 +0000 Keeper 13706@http://www.berryreview.com/forums/ <blockquote><cite>Terrence T <a href="http://www.berryreview.com/forums/topic/bepub-epub-reader-for-blackberry/page/6#post-13694" rel="nofollow">said</a>:</cite> any playbook?

As I expected there were a number of their preinstalled apps (actually, just icons, you still have to install). I went into the service books and deleted them and everything was fine. However, last night I let my battery run to low, it reset itself and now the apps are back on again. So, my question is, was it the reboot or did AT&T push them to my device because I deleted them?

The app simply lets you flag emails as high or low priority. You just highlight the selected message and click the Menu and then Flag Mail. If you click the Menu a few times it toggles between the flags. Now if only RIM would finish the rollout of OS 5.0 officially so we can flag emails on BES email at the very least.

It is the coolest translation application I have seen to date for BlackBerry that ties in nicely with the whole OS. The best part is that it is free but it is limited to translating between English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, German and Italian. It also works over BIS, BES, BPS and WiFi which is a concern for many international users. The only caveats are that OS 4.3+ is required (not sure about Storm) and you need to manually request a free license. <a href="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/navitatranslator6.jpg" target="_blank" rel="lightbox[]" rel="nofollow"><img style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" title="http://www.berryreview.co/navita-translator6" src="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/navitatranslator6-thumb.jpg" border="http://www.berryreview.co/0" alt="navita-translator6" width="http://www.berryreview.co/179" height="123" /></a> <a href="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/navitatranslator5.jpg" target="_blank" rel="lightbox[]" rel="nofollow"><img style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" title="http://www.berryreview.co/navita-translator5" src="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/navitatranslator5-thumb.jpg" border="http://www.berryreview.co/0" alt="navita-translator5" width="http://www.berryreview.co/179" height="120" /></a> <a href="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/navitatranslator4.jpg" target="_blank" rel="lightbox[]" rel="nofollow"><img style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" title="http://www.berryreview.co/navita-translator4" src="http://static.berryreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/navitatranslator4-thumb.jpg" border="http://www.berryreview.co/0" alt="navita-translator4" width="http://www.berryreview.co/179" height="122" /></a>  Features include: <ul> <li>Quickly translates words and text inputs;</li> <li>Easily translates phrases;</li> <li>Translates text directly from your email;</li> <li>Translates text parts of your BlackBerry® Browser as you select them;</li> <li>Translates from 6 to 6 idioms (English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, German and Italian);</li> <li>Supports BIS, BES, BPS, WAP and WiFi;</li> <li>It runs on BlackBerry OS 4.3 or higher;</li> <li>User friendly interface;</li> <li>Freeware BlackBerry Translator (Free application for BlackBerry);</li> <li>Software size is smaller than 120kb;</li> <li>Send your translation by e-mail, sms or pin;</li> <li>Save your translation as memopad.</li> </ul> You can <a href="http://www.bbtranslator.com/ota/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.bbtranslator.com');" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">download the application OTA free at this link</a> and I could not find a desktop install link but you can read more on their website <a href="http://www.bbtranslator.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.bbtranslator.com');" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.bbtranslator.com</a>.

You just activate the app when you start your running, cycling, walking, rollerblading or similar exercise. The app will start to log and map your position, movement, distance, tempo and calories burned. You can even run it in the background. When you finish your workout the collected information is stored on your BlackBerry where you can review it and compare it to previous workouts. The app will show you a map and charts of your performance. The cool part is that the app also has web integration which lets you upload your workouts to their website. You just need to register for free and you can access you workouts and maps from your PC and share them with others. Definitely a pretty cool app especially considering it is free.

It is a free app from REGARD that is meant to help wine enthusiasts looks up a bottles rating. You can look up a vintage rating by country, region and varietal which helps narrow down the search. Not really my cup of tea since I will drink practically any decent red wine but I know a few people that would find this invaluable.
