DropBox for BlackBerry is a great application for getting in touch with files you have stored on your cloud folder.  I have been using it since I had the BlackBerry Bold 9700, and as I upgraded devices, DropBox would always work better.  For example, I have a 2 hour film on my DropBox where I could not stream on my 9700, but on my Torch 9800 I was able to (sometimes needed WiFi).  So the application has been improving over time and now with OS 7 devices, we see it work even better.  The latest update for DropBox landed earlier this morning at version 1.0.55.  Here’s the full change log:

• Save mail attachments to Dropbox
• Protect your DropBox account with a passcode
• Various bug fixes

• saving non-ascii texts results in garbled text
• handling of edge cases when running out of space on sd card and in device memory
• open-edit-upload usecase wasn’t working for devices with encryption enabled
• share link freezes for some users
• open-edit-upload usecase fails for files with non-ascii filenames
• “would you like to allow logging” dialog shouldn’t appear on first launch
• on rotatable devices, in image gallery, the displayed/cached image is smaller than screen size (shouldn’t happen)
• app should ask for permissions in advance on first launch
• app should support multiple third-party app associations for a given file type (e.g multiple pdf viewers)
• music/video stops when screen fades out
• user gets a “not enough room to write file” message when trying to open a file that’s already open in docs2go
• uploading file changes for file stored in folder with non-ASCII characters can result in creation of damaged folder name with contents of a new file
• user interface rotation glitches on some screens
• BES permissions problems
• resolve some chronic upload retry issues and related UI glitches
• file browser lagginess when dealing with non-ASCII characters in file names
