The BlackBerry Curve 8900 was the trending celebrity Berry for awhile but it looks like the the recently released BlackBerry Tour 9630 seems to be the more appropriate choice on Hollywood Boulevard. Lauren Conrad is seen here holding her BlackBerry Tour oh so close to her face which we are uncertain if her vision is poor (due to the device practically glued to her face) or not being able to believe the nature of the message or email she had just received in that moment of time. Cheer up Lauren.

This is a great comic-based theme on the Amazing SpiderMan with some really nice work done to it. It’s not your average theme where the background are changed solely without rockin’ new icons. As you can see this theme took a lot of good work and effort to keep both the backgrounds and icons in sync with each other. This theme is only for the BlackBerry Storm 9500 and 9530. If you like this theme, please feel free to donate by hittin the link below the OTA. Enjoy.

The BlackBerry Curve 8520 is finally coming to the Rogers network as we saw many leaked inventory shots. We all know the specs on the device so we’re not going to bother getting into all the general specifics. One interesting aspect seen here is that the flyer shows that TalkSpot will be available which is similar to the T-Mobile UMA capable HotSpot at home service.

We thought it was a pretty cool idea, and of course no disrespect to any iPhone owners but it’s clear that the device indeed lacks a physical feel of a keyboard. If you’re currently an iPhone and want to be as tip-top as a BlackBerry, then the iTringe is the perfect accessory for you. As seen in the image above, it transforms your iPhone into a full feel QWERTY keyboarded device.

We read an article posted earlier over at RIMarkable as to whether or not the all new BlackBerry Storm 2 9550 & 9520 will be hyped as the first generation one was. With the first generation Storm releasing, we did not see the device in as much action as we saw this year with the Storm 2 so there really was no reason to get hyped up by Verizon’s commercials alone. Of course a stronger initiative in advertising will be required this time around due to all the mishaps from the 9500/9530 first generation Storm.

AnnaLynne McCord is very well known for playing in a range of movies and TV Shows. You may recall her in 2007 as the Eden Lord on the FX television series Nip/Tuck, and as Loren Wakefield on the MyNetworkTV telenovela American Heiress. In film, she has appeared in the Transporter 2, as well as the horror movie remake Day of the Dead. In this picture, she is seen holding up a BlackBerry Bold 9000 proudly in some aftermarket rubber case. Being the celebrity she is, I strongly believe she needs to be a little classier when it comes to her BlackBerry accessories and purchase an Impact series OtterBox. Sure there are better grades to purchase such as the Commuter Series and Defender Series, but given that she has a slim silicon cover, the simple Impact Series OtterBox would suffice for her.

Here’s a pretty cool theme that I guess could work for both men and women depending on your taste of preference. The home screen icons are 3 on top of 3 similar to the Beatles Theme for the BlackBerry Bold 9000. Special thanks to Jennifer from Cool BlackBerry Themes for providing this theme. The OTA links is available below the screenshots.
