Recent reports have demonstrated that in countries where the iPhone exclusivity has been dropped, the number of Apple handsets sold has almost doubled. A good example is France, where the iPhone was only selling on France Telecom’s Orange since December 2007, wheres joining rival operators Bouygues Telecom and SFR, open ...
We have always been big fans of the premium line of BlackBerry cases that Case-Mate provides. They seem to be ahead of the curve when it comes to making cases and accessories that serve many purposes. For instance I’m sure by now you have heard of the Fuel rechargeable battery pack for select BlackBerry phones. [...]

It’s been a long time coming but Flixster has finally released a full native BlackBerry application. The previous version of the Movies by Flixster BlackBerry app was more of a web launcher as it just took you to their mobile website. It did have some nice features but it was a pain waiting for the [...]

RIM has been busy outing updated BlackBerrys and the Pearl wasn't forgotten. An updated version is apparently on its way and these early pics clearly show that the phone is shapping up nicely. Everything is there from the slender candy-bar form factor to the SureType keyboard. Everything but the pearly trackball though. That's been replaced with a trackpad.
For those interested in the Blackberry Storm 2: Wirefly has just announced that it will sell the phone (with a new contract). If you already have a Verizon contract, you might be eligible for a $29.99 upgrade. From Wirefly: "Verizon is waiving the activation fee, as well. And additional savings of $35 for one line. And up to $135 for 5 lines." Our advice: check the Motorola Droid first....
The true successor to the compact BlackBerry Pearl 8100 is styled like a slimmed-down Bold 9700 . And while it ditches the "pearl" trackball for RIM's new optical touchpad, the QWERTY keyboard has made way for a reworked SureType setup. CrackBerry says it's been sitting on the photos for a while, but was waiting for its tipster's go-ahead to run them. No specs yet, but we're told they're...
With all the tweaks to their full-QWERTY range, it should come as no surprise that RIM have been planning some modifications to their Pearl line-up of compact BlackBerry handsets. CrackBerry have been sitting on some leaked shots of the upcoming BlackBerry Pearl 9100, internally code-named Striker, which has a reworked SureType keyboard and optical joystick. No word on things like camera resolution,...
The holidays are upon us, and new devices from Research In Motion, Sony, and other manufacturers offer users a host of new multimedia capabilities. RIMs BlackBerry line seems to be incorporating more consumer-style features such as dedicated music buttons with every passing generation, and Sony is embracing both Google Android and Windows Mobile 6.5 as the operating systems for its latest smartphones....
Gotta love Salomondrin for leaking pics of the upcoming BlackBerry Pearl 9100 aka Stratus. The 9100 is apparently a 3G Pearl Flip for the GSM network. It has SureType, an optical trackpad, 3G, WiFi and the version we're seeing is running OS 5.0.0.350. Too bad Sal's YouTube was taken down by RIM legal. Those lawyers are killing the Internet, 1 leak at a time.
Sleeplessness used to be the bane of my existence. People apparently need more than four hours of quality sleep per night but somehow my aspie brain didn't seem to care. These days, the problem is mostly "licked". I usually feel tired enough to go to bed somewhere between 11 and 12pm and I wake for work at around 5.15am. I get around 5 and a half hours sleep per night. I'm still tired but it's a good...
