Get ready, Blackberry fans. After weeks of leaks and goofy internal videos, it looks like the Storm’s finally a-comin’ — the first ads for the RIM’s touchscreen wonder aired on CBS tonight. We’re on the lookout for a better video, but even at that low res we can’t help but notice how chunky […]

Just when you think you’ve escaped the darkened woods of firmware 2.0.2 and previous ilk, along comes 2.1, wrapped in faster-loading-contacts-finery to convince you all is well in the iPhone world. That isn’t entirely the case, it seems, whether you’re user of POP or IMAP mail accounts which are set to fetch messages. […]


BLACKBERRY STORM USER GUIDE SURFACES

Filed under: Cellphones

Look, we love finding out the pre-release minutiae just as much as anyone, but that is getting a little absurd. Yesterday we spotted a Storm slide pack, just that am we ran across a sneak peek of RIM’s BlackBerry Application Center, and merely hours later we’re being treated to the BlackBerry Storm User […]

It’s been nearly a year since Parrot announced its DF7700 GPRS-endowed picture frame, said to possess the mystical ability to pull photographs straight out of the ether. Now T-Mobile has pledged to bring Parrot’s magic frame to the US as the CAMEO, a $100 device that, when coupled with a $10/month service […]

There’s no telling what sort of crazy behind-the-scenes negotiations had to take place in order for our good friend Boy Genius to get his hands on the very first retail T-Mobile-branded BlackBerry 8220 we’ve seen in the wild — and let’s be honest, the whole unboxing takes on a sexier tone when […]

At that point, you’re probably wondering what section of the Storm’s UI you haven’t seen. Enter a few new sneak peeks, that moment showcasing the purported BlackBerry Application Center. Granted, these shots are from the Vodafone edition, but we don’t suspect the Verizon version will look much different. Reportedly, the Application Center will […]
