This is a bit of an interesting entry. RIM has just released a ShopBlackBerry app in App World. A natural extension of the ShopBlackBerry website, RIM is hoping to use the app to pimp accessories out to those that need them in a quick, and convenient way. The cool thing about this app is it already knows what device you’re using, and shows you relevant accessories right away for your device. No need to go in and select your device from a list. Not that this was a hassle anyway… But, you know… Just sayin’.
For the moment the ShopBlackBerry app is in the ‘test center’ category, and will no doubt work its way out into the mainstream once some final bugs are worked out of the system. Overall though the thing works great, although I would like to see more payment options (you can use Visa and Mastercard to checkout currently).
Feel free to check it out for yourself in App World. It’s a free download.
