So, we mentioned that the new official BlackBerry community, MyBlackBerry, was going live tonight, and thought you might like a sneak peek at what’s up. As mentioned, the layout’s pretty interesting – RIM has clearly put a lot of work into it. Take a look at a few of these screenshots and let us know what you think. Any of you BlackBerry fans think you’ll end up spending a lot of time here?
N.B.: This is all prior to public release, so there might be a few things that get changed around before tomorrow’s launch. TechCrunch is saying that the site will be tailored to your particular device, so those shameless plugs for apps might actually be pertinent to your interests.
