Italy is rumoured to be getting the BlackBerry App World on July 20th., leaving us to wonder about the rest of Europe. Right now RIM’s dedicated on-device software portal is only available in Canada, the U.S., and the U.K., much to the chagrin of international BlackBerry-users who scoff openly at their use of the term “world”. It’s entirely possible that App World launches will roll out gradually on a country-by-country basis, but they would certainly pack a bit more punch if they happened in batches of several languages at a time. One way or the other, you can get notifications for when BlackBerry hits your hometown in a variety of languages (Italian, French, German, Spanish) – odds are it’ll be coming soon, so keep an eye on your inbox.
