The Palm Pre wasn’t the only handset to get support for OpenTable lately – a BlackBerry version of their app is also now available. A quick search will not only help you find restaurants in your neighbourhood (organized by cuisine category, if you’re feeling picky) and allow you to reserve a table right from your mobile. Viigo had offered some of OpenTable’s service not long ago, but a dedicated app will be a good choice for those who eat out often. Check out OpenTable’s standard website to see what’s available in your area, and if you’re happy with the selection, download the app for free from App World. Oh, and OpenTable is also available for iPhone, if you’re into that kind of thing.
