I know there is many BB users that love starbucks; @Mi_Infierno let us know that Starbucks released an app for Blackberry that allows you to locate stores near you, add your starbucks card information and even make payments at certain starbucks locations using your BlackBerry.
You can pick up the app at this link or to find out more go to this link and is available for most Blackberry devices from the 83xx and up.
Here is a description from the Starbucks website:
“Just enter your Starbucks Card number and your BlackBerry Tour, Curve or Storm becomes your Starbucks Card. You can register your card, check your balance and track the Stars you earn toward free beverages through My Starbucks Rewards.
And here’s the coolest feature: in some places you can pay for your drink using the Starbucks Card Mobile app. Enter your card number and your device will display a barcode you can use as your Starbucks Card to make purchases. It’s fast. It’s easy. And it’s a revolution in mobile payment. Mobile Pay is available at select stores in Seattle and Silicon Valley, and at all Target® Starbucks stores in the United States. To find a store, use our Store Locator and select the Mobile Payment filter.
To download Starbucks Card Mobile for your BlackBerry, text GO to 70845

Store Location could be better. I got a GPS time-out while in a building, showing me that it does not use assisted GPS via the towers.

Store Location also does NOT show the distance from a zip code to each store found.
