RIM Giving Away a 9 Day Trip for 2 to Australia & 9 BlackBerrys!!! Posted: 31 May 2011 03:22 AM PDT RIM really knows how to do a giveaway! Though they are really bad at publicizing them but we can help them with that. Bill let us know about the latest one called "Travel Better with BlackBerry" which is offering up a grand prize of a trip for 2 for 9 days in Australia with $2,500 spending money while you are there. They are also giving away 9 BlackBerry devices listed below that you get to choose everything from the 9800 to a 8520/8520. Pretty sweet right? The contest is limited to the US and Canada excluding Quebec again. You can enter every week for their weekly drawing for a BlackBerry smartphone which also enters you for the grand prize. You can enter via Twitter or their website for dual entries which is also sweet. The contest started on May 16th and ends June 26th so get cracking!!!

Sideload aMail Email Client on Your BlackBerry PlayBook Posted: 30 May 2011 02:38 PM PDT We heard about aMail working on a BlackBerry PlayBook email client for almost a month now but it has yet to hit App World. My guess is RIM is holding up the app due to their SDK license that disallows creating email clients for BlackBerrys. Still it looks like aMail is working around App World. Todd noticed a thread on CrackBerry forums where aMail is offering their app as a sideload-able installer. This means you can install aMail on your BlackBerry PlayBook using the Development Mode sideloading process detailed by Keeper in our forums. This sideload version of aMail comes with a 24 hour trial for you to kick the tires after which you can buy the program for $2.99 (beta test program rate). Its kind of a unique idea and definitely the first developer to document and promote sideloading apps on the BlackBerry PlayBook. RIM has foolishly not opened up OTA downloads for the BlackBerry PlayBook but hopefully they are reconsidering that annoying stance. Until then let us know what you think about aMail in the comments!

Leaked AT&T Roadmap Shows BlackBerry Torch 2 “Uwan” 9810 Launching in Q2 Posted: 30 May 2011 12:21 PM PDT While this looks like an old roadmap from AT&T it still is a bit telling. This rumored roadmap shows a BlackBerry "Uwan" 9810 launching in Q2 of 2011. It still says the device runs BlackBerry OS 6.1 so it is definitely a month old if not more. On the other hand this means RIM was gearing up for a Q2 2011 release which ends in June so it might not be crazy to think we will see the Torch 2 in a June/July or maybe even August time frame. The odd part is that RIM announced the BlackBerry Bold 9900 yet did not mention any of these other devices officially… What do you think of this rumored roadmap?

Posted: 30 May 2011 10:17 AM PDT I wanted to take a moment today to salute those men and women who have given their lives for our country. If you don't live in the US you may have missed that today is Memorial Day where we honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our freedom. It is a tradition that hails back to the times of the Civil War and is both a solemn and festive occasion celebrated with everything from memorials to family BBQs. We wanted to take a moment to salute, support, and honor the brave men and women, those who have passed alongside the living, who put their life on the line to protect our thankful nation.

Free LogicMail 2.0 IMAP/POP3 Email Client Graduates Out of Beta Posted: 30 May 2011 09:40 AM PDT Over the years I have found LogicMail to be a must have app on my BlackBerry. It provides a free open source email client (POP3, IMAP, SMTP) for your BlackBerry so you can access emails you don't want pushed to your device. Right at the beginning of the year LogicMail 2.0 was released in beta form with a boatload of new features. Now those features have been considered stable and are in the full public release. There is even a nice Setup Guide to get you up and running. The new features in LogicMail v2.0 include:

BlackBerry Curve Apollo Caught Gets Video and Picture Treatment! Posted: 30 May 2011 08:22 AM PDT The leaks keep on rolling out for the unreleased (and mostly unannounced) lineup of BlackBerry devices RIM has in store for us in 2011. The latest to get the video treatment is the unreleased and unannounced BlackBerry Curve codename Apollo. This new device was caught on video by Vietnamese site Tinh te (via Engadget) along with some nice close-ups of the device. Google Translate does not due the site justice but you can get the gist of it. Desktop Video Link | Mobile Video LinkIf you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

BlackBerry Torch 2 9810 Caught on Video Posted: 30 May 2011 08:14 AM PDT The BlackBerry Torch 2 9810 got some hands on pictures a few times in the past. I have a gut feeling that we might be seeing this device roll out within days or weeks of the 9900. The team at TechnoBuffalo was kind enough to take a video of this yet to be released device and I really want the upgrade. I am sort of on the fence between all of the upcoming devices. Which one do you have your eye on? If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

Unreleased BlackBerry Bold 9900 Simulator Found Online Posted: 30 May 2011 08:06 AM PDT While RIM has announced the BlackBerry Bold 9900 they have been sort of quiet about it. We were told that the BlackBerry v7.0 SDK is coming soon which will probably come with a simulator but it has yet to launch. Until then you can get a chance to play with a leaked simulator for the device courtesy of the N4BB team. Most of the perks on the 9900 have to do with new hardware but the OS also got a nice overhaul.
