Die-hard BlackBerry users have had quite the ample selection of white devices to choose from in recent history. Awesome for sure, in fact, it’s enough to drive an iPhone 4 user certifiably nuts. With the White iPhone 4 still nowhere to be found, BlackBerry users all over the globe are showing off their white devices…
If you live in Canada, carry a BlackBerry or iPhone, and collect AIR MILES… hold on to your shorts because I have some pretty sweet news for you. The good folks at AIR MILES have just launched their first ever application for BlackBerry and iPhone users. It’s true, no longer do you need to pull…
RIM co-CEO Mike Lazaridis did a follow-up interview to his talk at the IntoMobile Dive Into Mobile conference the other day to show off the BlackBerry PlayBook a little more and talk about how it’ll do. If you haven’t had a chance to check it out, the BlackBerry PlayBook is RIM’s first tablet, due to…
I can’t remember the last time I read any news about the BlackBerry Curve 8350i, so when I came across this OS release for the device, I figured I should post it. Yes, a new and very official OS has dropped for 8350i users north of the border. Coming to us from TELUS, owners of…

Another one came out today at a joint RIM/Adobe developer event in New York, and we’ll probably have at least one more video coming from the shindig later today. The…
RIM’s co-CEO Mike Lazaridis showed off the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet yet again for a WSJ conference last night, where he ferociously (and sometimes confusingly) defended the present and future of RIM. From the edited video below and some of the liveblogs, it seems that he was trying to contort canned lines into responses that nobody…
Just a quick BlackBerry OS update here for the Bold 9780 users out there. The best part of this is, it’s an OFFICIAL release, woohoo! OS 6.0.0.359 has dropped for the BlackBerry Bold 9780 from AVEA. The update should pack a somewhat reasonable punch, bumping you up quite a bit from the standard OS build…
Hey mobile app developers, you want a free BlackBerry PlayBook? Yeah, of course you do. Well, if you’ve been taking the last couple of weeks to play around with the AIR SDK for RIM’s first tablet, you can now submit your final work to the BlackBerry App World and get a free PlayBook if it’s…
