Good news, everyone! RIM has launched a web site featuring the full BlackBerry App World library for easier perusing. We had heard this feature would be launching with the latest update to the on-device software portal, but clearly there were a few kinks in the site to iron out that stopped them from launching simultaneously. Still, this is a much easier way to browse through the multitudinous app categories than through the device app, especially if you happen to have a desktop browser at the ready. The shopping proper still happens on your BlackBerry, but you can send yourself links to apps you find on the website via e-mail. Hit up appworld.blackberry.com/webstore take a look around.
