Yes, this is no photoshop work folks.  CrackBerry has done a full review of the all new BlackBerry Application Suite, which basically enables you to to have BlackBerry on other non-BlackBerry smartphones.  It is quite amazing if you think about it.  BlackBerry is opening and expanding all over through other devices now even.  Some people favor actual devices but hate their software, sometime vice versa but never with BlackBerry.

As you can see pretty much all functions of the BlackBerry OS are there, it is currently running 4.2, so all you 4.5+, settle down now and appreciate what’s been done here!  BlackBerry Messenger looks like a charm as it appears on the full screen with lots of buddy list clarity.  It comes out more or so as the Storm would you could say, but minus allt he nwe 4.7 stuff.  Tune over to CrackBerry for further details about it.

I know, I couldn’t beleive it when i saw it either.  First we saw Windows Mobile taking its shift towards iPhones in creating big desktop icons and things of that nature, now we see Windows Mobile devices such as this iMate here (picture from MobileSyrup)which is just confused between a Pocket PC and a wanna-be BlackBerry.  Is that a trackball in the middle? Whatever it is, they are trying to make it look the same fashion as the BlackBerry.  I had to share the sorrow with you folks, and I will continue to do so as long as the FCC allows these replicated phone models to come out!

Paparazzis did it again, this time caught him over the weekend over in Hawaii sporting out on the beach, eating some very colorful (childish looking) ice cream if you ask me.  Seen on his waist is a BlackBerry 8830 World Edition, as we have seen in some pictures in the past few weeks along with the stock BlackBerry holster.  Who would of thought he was the type to have a holster? All I know is that RIM couldn’t complain as Obama has put over $50 million worth in advertising for them with the whole “Obama and keeping his BlackBerry” dilemma.

Strangely but true.  It’s been confirmed from the guys over at BGR.  In this inventory list it shows a non camera 8900 series phone.  If you think about this, it seems as though this will be 3G based.  In earlier posts about the 3G Curve coming out with WiFi and GPS, I stressed the fact that it would tick off a lot of recent Bold buyers if the new Curve was equipped with all 3: 3G, WiFi, GPS.

Facebook is currenly finding ways to tie closer with smartphone access and generating new services.  One leaked out service they mention was that they wanted to add features such as displaying Facebook profiles pictures when contacts call.  There have been some third party softwares that did that, but they really were not that great.  (more…)
