It’s very close to making me rethink my Blackberry addiction.
This new Palm phone does everything the iPOS..err..iPhone does…AND BETTER!
Just unfortunate that it’s launching on the Sprint network exclusively. I would wait for it to come to Verizon and REALLY wonder if I’m still a Crackberry addict.
Time will tell….
The fellas over on Engadget have just loosed this awesome news!
This is just amazing. 16gb on a piece of silicon that fit’s on your pinky nail.
Do you remember how your brain went wild with what you could do with a CD-ROM and all 650gb of endless space on a coaster?
What is your mind thinking of now? hehe
I bought an 8gb MicroSDHC card from Meritline.com a few months back for all of $27 delivered.
I think I’ve filled it with about 1.5gb of music, movies and pictures for my Curve 8330.
I’ll wait for the price to drop on these 16gb babies. $129.99 retail for one of these hurts way too much and considering I’m not using all of my 8gb, I can wait.
This is a call out to most of the bloggers of the world. If you want people to leave you feedback or kudos or “hey you have a typo here” message, have a “contact me” link somewhere easy to find on your site.
It’s just common sense.
I’ve been trying to contact some bloggers to let them know that I’ve taken the liberty of adding their feed to one of my blogging aggregating sites. I couldn’t leave a message for close to 50% of the bloggers.
So please, if you have a blog, post a “contact me” link.

Looks like our neighbors up north are going to be getting some really sweet handsets from RIM next year.
What’s of TRUE interest to me is the Touchscreen Bold! Wow…YES! It’s a Treo…just WAY BETTER!!! Keyboard, HSPA, WiFi, 3G, AWESOME #($&ing screen, Fast processor..ugh. What more could you want?
Must…contain self….
Check Crackberry.com and BerryReview.com for the full review. Wow….salivating here
I’ve just finished updating my Viigo RSS feed reader (god I love this application), and found that they’ve added new features.
Finding local jobs using their local interest channel. This is great seeing that our economic condition has made us more and more aware of our job situation. So if you feel that you’re job is at stake or you’re looking for work, it’s a great way to keep ahead of the competition.

Ok, so I’ve been lookingfor a way to synchronize my outlook calendar and my blackberry curve. Yeah, I know, there are plenty of sync apps out there for this.
But, in redoing my computer system, I decided to forgo Outlook 2008 in favor of Mozilla Thunderbird (I’m on this new open-source trip lately and I don’t like Outlooks bloated weight). I’ve come to really like Thunderbird’s interface and most importantly, it’s overall speed (wow!).
This still poses a problem for me. Now I need a synchronization app for my Thunderbird calendar and my Blackberry. Oh, you need calendar add-on for Thunderbird. There’s none included with Thunderbird like Outlook.
So what you’ll need is:
- Gmail account
- Thunderbird
- Google Provider Add-on for thunderbird
- Lightning Add-On for Thunderbird
- Google Sync on your Blackberry (http://m.google.com/sync — from your blackberry)
PHEW! Seems like a lot huh? Well, maybe it is. But, it’s well worth it.
After installing and configuring everything you’re scheduling will be perfectly updated on both ends of the web.
If you change your calendar on Google, your handset is updated.
If you change your calendar on your handset, Google calendar is updated.
What I love most about this system is that I can have multiple calendars on my blackberry. I have my own personal private calendar and a public shared calendar all at my fingertips!
Plus with Google calendar, I can add public calendars like, oh..I don’t know…the NFL Schedule? House M.D. airings (yes, I’m a big House fan)? US Holidays? I add all those calendars to my google calendar and they’re all synched up nicely on my blackberry.
OH JOY! hahaha. Loving my blackberry curve more and more everyday

Why can’t the US have funny ads like this? We are a global leader in many things yet at the same time so conservative in others. Watch, laugh, share. This one hot claus
I’m no finance professional by any stretch of the word. Hell, I hate the term, “assetss and liabilities”.
But, it doesn’t take a genius to figure out that RIM’s stock price will probably be where it is now for a very very very long while.
RIM’s popularity grew with the business sector. They’ve dominated mobile communications for years with their smartphones. Well…duh..that’s not news
And with all the big banks and other varied financial institutions going belly up, that doesn’t bode well for RIM’s subscriber base. Without many subscribers, RIMs books will report lower and lower revenue.
If and only if the financial sector improves, will RIMs pockets deepen. But, I think that RIMs stock price will dive even further than it is today ($38 Down from it’s year high of $148).
Let’s hope that RIM will be smart and divest their product line to offer more phones to different sectors.
Heck, Apple is positioning their iPhone as both a consumer product and a business product (and we know how that is far(k)ing).
RIM needs to improve upon their consumer product line with the Storm and the Kickstart. Get into more pockets and purses than the ubiquitous iPhone. (I hate to acknowledge the popularty of the iPhone but it’s hard not to comment on it when talking about RIM)
Just my 2 cents

Without a doubt, Viigo has been my #1 favorite application on my Blackberry Curve.
I can read all of my RSS feeds, check the local weather, check the latest sports scores and sports news, get the latest on my travel itinerary, and read the latest entertainment news. Everything from one simple easy to use application.
