blackberry88001

1) Blackberry Essex:
This device is equipped with newer version of 3G/CDMA/WiFi, better than the Blackberry Tour 9630 which is currently out for Verizon Wireless and Sprint. We’ve touch base on this device a little while ago during the release of the Tour, talking about how the next Tour will be equipped with WiFi.  Well, this is that device we were talking about! The device will be also rockin’ the all new trackpad and from what BBLeaks says another “little surprise.” which remains unknown.

2) Blackberry 9100 aka Striker:
The BlackBerry Pearl has been nothing but history lately, especially after the release of the BlackBerry Pearl Flip 82xx series which did not launch as successfully as planned.  Rest assured, the Pearl will be coming back as you all remember it with some cool new features that will definitely convince you to go back to it.  The BlackBerry 9100 aka Striker is going to be equipped with 3G + Trackpad.  The coolest part about it is that it will be even slimmer than the upcoming BlackBerry Bold 2 9700 aka Onyx which is expected to release by the end of year.  Stay tuned for the sexier and improved BlackBerry Pearl 9100.

3) Blackberry Curve 8530:
This won’t excite many but as we all know, the BlackBerry Curve 85xx series is a very basic model with its soul purpose to cater to the user friendly crowd which are most likely just getting introduced to the BlackBerry platform for the first time.  Being that it is very basic, the device will be offered at a very low affordable price.  As for the specis, it will be like the recently released 8520, this one is just a Curve, but for CDMA carriers.  We’ve seen many leaked images on it so far as well as carrier inventory releases.  It is expected to be announced really soon.

Spear

Elecite’s themes just keep getting better and better.  As you follow their catalog of themes and their releases, you’ll see how baffled you can be in deciding which theme to keep primarily.  The Spear theme is definitely one of my favorites as it completely transforms the look of your BlackBerry unlike anything else you’ve ever seen.  The main home screen is pretty straight forward with its indicators and incredible scroll bar on the bottom where all your customized top applications will be displayed.  When you go to your application screen, you’ll see your battery bar and signal in the actual numeric strength.  For example, if you have full service you’ll see 100.  Overall, this theme is definitely worth purchasing.  Head over to Elecite today and grab your copy for only $6.99.  This theme is compatible with the BlackBerry Curve 8350i, 85xx, 8900, Tour 96xx, and Bold 9000.

blackberry-9520-2

Seeing images teasing about the Storm coming to AT&T and furthermore images of the actual GSM 9520 is quite a relief and allows us to feel like the day is coming soon.  It looks like the folks over at BGR got their hands on a 9520.  If you read up the full article on their site, you’ll full images of it, side by side with the older 9500/9530 style Storm.

Here’s a nice humble theme for the BlackBerry Tour 9630 without all the special effects and lagging backgrounds causing lots of aggravation.  This theme takes very little space on your BlackBerry and is great for those just looking for small subtle changes within the theme as far as color goes.  Special thanks to fun2be02 for providing this great theme.  The OTA link is available below the screenshots.  Enjoy.

Twitter-Logo

We gathered three great applications that are evolved around Twitter for you fellow readers.  There are many apps out there such as TweetGenius and SocialScope but as we all know they are currently not accessible instantly to the public yet.  TweetGenius (which is said to cost $9.99 when officially launched) is on its merging process with BeeJive and SocialScope requires an invite.  Given that, we decided to sharethese applications which are absolutely free and accessible for everyone to download.

UberTwitter – Free Twitter application allowing you tweet messages, pictures, retweet, view time lines, follow/unfollow, and everything else you like to do on Twitter except tweet videos.

TwitVid – This is where your video solution comes in.  TwitVid strictly has its soul purpose to tweeting videos in the simplest application layout possible.

SnapMyLife – With this app, you’ll get a different vibe of social networking as you can share your photos on the SnapMyLife network as well as Twitter at the same time.  Many folks use it as a “kill two birds with one stone” type of deal.
