| RIM Updates Parental Controls App to v1.0.0.24 Posted: 29 Aug 2012 01:55 AM PDT
RIM recently released their Parental Controls app in App World for OS 5.0+ devices. Jason let us know that RIM has updated that app to v1.0.0.24 from the previous 1.0.0.19 which is a small jump. There is no word on what is new in this update but if you use the parental controls app it may be worth an update to check it out.

| Reviewer: BlackBerry 10 QWERTY Keyboard is "Fantastic" & Software "Feels Unique" Posted: 28 Aug 2012 02:14 PM PDT Long time BlackBerry beat journalist Al Sacco just posted his feedback from his hands on demo with the upcoming BlackBerry 10 devices. Sacco is the latest in the line of media that RIM has been showing the devices to and as a current BlackBerry QWERTY user I was really curious to see what his response would be. After reading his write up today I think we can more or less see where these BlackBerry 10 devices will hit for current QWERTY keyboard device lovers. In Sacco's words:
Sacco also gives us a bit of a taste about the software being way more polished than what RIM was showing at BlackBerry World. He also confirmed that the Full Touch device looks like an aesthetically pleasing and relatively light version of the Dev Alpha though not as thin as some recent Android phones. He also relates that the BlackBerry 10 experience and software "feels unique" instead of borrowed from iOS, android, or Windows Phone though it does have touches of WebOS. I highly recommend checking out Al Sacco's full write up on the devices. Let us know what you think in the comments! If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| Leaked Apple Genius Employee Training Manual Makes Your Head Spin Posted: 28 Aug 2012 02:00 PM PDT
I could not stop laughing while reading this latest leak to come out of Apple. Sam Biddle of Gizmodo scored the latest Genius Training Student Workbook that Apple uses to train their "Genius" store employees. While some of this stuff is pretty self explanatory (though taken to Apple's anal retentive extremes) other parts of it seem to really boggle the mind. My favorite snippet is:
Some are going to scream that it is a reality distortion field but truthfully Apple's retail experience is second to none according to many retail experts. I have been to a few stores where employees could use a few lessons in humanity that Apple indoctrinates. Either way I found the excerpts of the Genius Training Student Workbook Gizmodo posted to be quite entertaining. Check them out yourself and let us know what you think!

| Open on Tablet Sends Websites From your PC to Your PlayBook Posted: 28 Aug 2012 11:29 AM PDT
Daniel Bigham let us know about his latest PC<->PlayBook interaction app called Open on Tablet. Just like his other apps it allows you to send data between your pc and your PlayBook this time opening up URL's from your PC to your PlayBook. I am really hoping that Daniel combines all of his apps like iTunes Sync and Print into one utility and is working on a BlackBerry 10 version that runs in the background all the time. If you have been looking for such a utility and sending URL's via email is not working for you then check out Open on Tablet for $0.99 in App World If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| Check out 40 BlackBerry Developer Success Story Q&As from RIM Posted: 28 Aug 2012 10:55 AM PDT
I am not sure exactly when RIM published these 40 BlackBerry developer success stories but thought it would be worthwhile sharing them. For years there has been an unsung story of BlackBerry developers successfully tapping the BlackBerry market. We have shared some of these developer success stories in the past but I learned quite a bit more about these developers from their stories and experiences developing for BlackBerry smartphones and the PlayBook. RIM has gone out and collected some great success stories from 40 top BlackBerry developers. They even have a Q&A section that usually goes for four or so questions delving into their experience. If you are a developer and are considering developing for BlackBerry Smartphones, PlayBook, or BlackBerry 10 I highly recommend reading them: Check out RIM's "Why BlackBerry" developer success stories here If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| BlackBerry 10 WebWorks SDK Gets Quick Bug Fix Refresh Posted: 28 Aug 2012 08:45 AM PDT
RIM just released an updated BlackBerry 10 WebWorks SDK but they have just refreshed it yet again. They found that there were two issues in the go live version with code signing issues reported on Apple Mac systems along with config.xml issues with more than one unsupported <feature> element. This new v1.0.1.17 SDK should help out people running into those issues. I know I heard about the Mac issue so its nice to see RIM jumping ahead of this one and posting it on the DevBlog. Check out the new BlackBerry 10 WebWorks release here. If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| BlackBerry Beta Zone To Soon Allow You To Login with BlackBerry ID Posted: 28 Aug 2012 07:55 AM PDT
It looks like good usability is sinking into RIM's culture. The latest sign is an announcement by the Beta Zone that they sent to users about changes to the BlackBerry Beta Zone Logins. RIM is planning on streamlining the login process letting you integrate your Beta Zone with BlackBerry ID. This will allow you to integrate your Beta Zone account with your BlackBerry ID for the future. If your BlackBerry ID matches your Beta Zone then you will automatically be connected in the coming weeks. Hopefully this means that RIM will use your BlackBerry ID everywhere from now on. I am also guessing this is a sign that BlackBerry 10 will also be using the Beta Zone even though the PlayBook does not currently do so. Check out the announcement below:

| Nobex Radio Already Testing BlackBerry 10 App in App World Posted: 28 Aug 2012 06:44 AM PDT
Nobex engineers have been pretty vocal about developing for BlackBerry 10 so this is no real surprise. RIM has been encouraging developers with BlackBerry 10 Dev Alphas to submit apps into App World for other devs with Dev Alpha's to test. Shane @OSBB noticed that Nobex has already done so with a beta of Nobex Radio for BlackBerry 10. It would be very interesting to learn how long it took Nobex to bring the app over. I tried it and it looks quite nice though the visual elements need some tweaking. I am pretty curious to learn who RIM is lining up as developer partners at launch. My guess is Nobex will be one of them. If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:
