BerryReader 1.1 Public Beta Fixes Bugs and Adds OS 6.0 Support

Since I was deprived of Viigo on the BlackBerry Torch I have been a regular user of BerryReader by Bellshare. Support for BlackBerry OS 6.0 is not official in the current stable version of BerryReader (aka BeReader in App World) and I was missing Viigo’s ability to post articles to Twitter from the app. I mentioned this on Twitter and @Nfldberryguy let me know that Bellshare has a public beta of the app with both of those features.

You can pick up the public beta and use your current BerryReader activation code for it to work. If you don’t already have a copy of BerryReader you can pick one up in the store for $9.95.

Here is the change log for the current beta:
