Magmic Games have been making games for BlackBerry for a long time now and QuicklyBored has been with them all the way. Because we’re both based in Ottawa (blocks apart), we’ve had the opportunity for interviews with both their CEO and developers. Magmic is doing great things for promoting the BlackBerry gaming business and their latest game, The New York Times Crosswords, is a sweet addition to their lineup.
I’ve heard people complain that the faux-leather on the BlackBerry Bold is a little tacky, but how awesome is denim? The back casing is available from CNN for $50. No, not the news network CNN, but the online mobile accessories store. Although currently out of stock, this casing is sure to garner enough interest for us to see it again.
The BlackBerry Storm, RIM’s first consumer touch screen device, goes on sale from November 17th in the US. The device is expected to satisfy the more demanding prosumers with a wide range of media capabilities.
MPEG4 and YouTube video
Music player will play MP3, WMA and AAC encoded files
With all this great hardware, I’m hoping the software comes strong too. RIM’s software portal should be able to serve up some great content for this device.
The BlackBerry Bold, HTC Touch Pro and the Samsung Epix are all smartphones that take elements from both the consumer space and the enterprise market. All three phones have 3G, GPS, WiFi, microSD slots and video capture. The HTC Touch Pro and the BlackBerry Bold are about identical in price and the Samsung Epix is around $100 less on the initial purchase with contract. I’ve taken the time to put together a comparison post for these 3 phones.
Documents To Go, the company that brought you Microsoft Office for BlackBerry, Palm, Windows Mobile, and Symbian are moving to iPhone. I’m really hoping that the company will offer copy & paste within their documents. Also, the product is still in development so they might be waiting for Apple to update and implement c&p themselves. Continue reading all the features that come with Documents To Go for iPhone
Except for the MOTO Z9, the top 6 bestselling phones on Amazon are smartphones. It’s also interesting to note that LG and BlackBerry dominate the smartphone space on Amazon.
The fact that the LG Vu is the top selling phone says a lot about the mobile TV industry. Clearly, consumers want mobile TV and are willing to buy a device that advertises its ability to provide mobile video services.
It also seems that the Curve is the most popular consumer BlackBerry. At least I have to assume that all purchases made through Amazon are consumer because enterprise would have a carrier rep to purchase from.
Motorola is still dominating the clam shell space. Almost every flip phone in the bestselling list is by Motorola. I guess they’ve held onto their loyal RAZR fans with new versions and features.
I’m looking forward to the day when the bestselling list will be nothing but the best smartphones.
Gmail for mobile has gone 2.0 and there are a ton of updates. The new Gmail mobile is directed at J2ME and BlackBerry devices. Here are the highlights:
Overall performance improvement: You should experience significant raw speed improvement, smoother scrolling, and no freezing.
Multiple accounts management: If you have both a Gmail and Google Apps email account, you can easily switch between them quickly. You will no longer have to use two different mobile apps to access personal and work emails.
Pinota is the first and only adult entertainment network for BlackBerry. A few months back I tried to register BlackBerryPorn.com but RIM had bought the domain like days before me. Imagine owning that domain? RIM would pay huge money to put the kibosh on it. Well porn finds a way and now Pinota is trying to capitalize on all the business men and women who want to look at nude people during meetings. Also of note, when you Google Pinota, the first thing that comes up is the Finnish word, which in English means “to stack”. Coincidence?
Go to www.pinota.com on your BlackBerry and sign up to be a beta tester. How do you “test” porn? I’ll leave that to your imagination.
BlackBerry Pluto: The BlackBerry Bold touch screen device.
I’ve been reading a lot of confusion on the web about the BlackBerry Magnum and the BlackBerry Pluto. Many are confused which BlackBerry touch screen the respective codenames are associated with.
BlackBerry Magnum (9220)
This touch screen device will be modeled on the BlackBerry Curve 8900 design, but will include 3G.
BlackBerry Pluto (9900)
Again a touch screen device, but this one will be modeled on the BlackBerry Bold design.
RIM’s BlackBerry application store went official at the BlackBerry Developer Conference in Santa Clara California. The store will take 2 forms: a new online application storefront and a new on-device storefront. The storefront will go live March 2009 and BlackBerry application developers can begin submitting their applications and content for inclusion in the storefront in December 2008.
The storefront will give 80 percent of the revenue generated from applications to the developers. Take that Apple! RIM is also working with PayPal to develop the payment systems. Something I’m not all that happy about is the fact that the on-device storefronts will be carrier controlled. Thanks for bringing us back to the Walled Garden.
