Sophisticated Full-QWERTY BlackBerry Curve 8330 Delivers Uncompromising Communications, Rich Multimedia Features, VZ Navigator and Broadband Speeds

I was soooo excited when I finally got to download Jott for my BlackBerry 8130 today. But after installation the application failed to launch properly with the following error:

“Jott for BlackBerry Error occured while Replying with Jott. Please try again.”
I reinstalled the application two more times, to no avail. My mailbox freezes with that error [...]

According to BerryReview, a new version of facebook is available.
I went ahead and upgraded from 1.0.0.18 to 1.0.0.23 just now. Installation was a breeze and after restarting my Blackberry I loaded the facebook application.
As far as I could tell there were no significant changes at all. Probably a few security updates here and there but [...]

Seems the folks over at Jott still haven’t been able to release their mobile application for blackberry. I wonder what the hold up is.
As promised, I will do an review as soon as it becomes available. Thanks.

I just installed a wonderful plugin from alexking.org that if this blog is visited from a mobile device, it will display a nice clean and easy to read format.
Yes, the site was viewable on a phone anyway, but in a garbled and messy way. This makes things a lot better. Everyone should have this.

Recently Kelly Carter wrote a review about Jott.com, a very handy voice-to-text service. I’ve used this service extensively and I can’t get enough of it! You create an account, setup your contact list, call the 1-800 #, tell it who you want to send an email/txt to and just start talking. The transcription from [...]

So the new version of Google Maps is available, but Google didn’t release any new information about it. So, no changelog or why this was released. I’m going to download it anyway to see if I can find anything. Probably the only change I’ll find is the new version number in the “About” section.

A friend of mine sent me this in an email. It brought tears to my eyes.
For all the liberal press, I have never heard
a better analogy of U.S. aggression. Nobody wants to
see our troops have to go to war but someone has to do it.
The other day, my nine year old son wanted to
know why [...]

Shortly after pinppl.com was shutdown, I was at a loss to find other Blackberry owners across the world. Yes, I was looking for a social networking site tailored to Blackberry folks like myself, who love their Blackberry’s and everything related to them.
World, meet Blackberry Ave.

Blackberry Ave is beautiful in design. While the site is still [...]
