| RIM Patent Shows Off Pressure Sensitive Password Entry Posted: 25 May 2012 10:09 AM PDT
I am not sure what to make to this latest patent to be approved by the USPTO. It is for a "Pressure password for a touchscreen device" and mostly describes unlocking your device by pushing down on certain areas. Here is how they describe it:
I am not sure if this patent is more from the Storm days or something upcoming but it is interesting. I have been wondering how RIM was going to do the lock screen on the upcoming BlackBerry 10 devices. Personally I am loving the simplicity of the swipe gesture on the PlayBook and want something like that which can be done single handed. via USPTO via Engadget If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| OnStar RemoteLink App Built Using HTML5 – Featured in Exclusive OCTiV Video Posted: 25 May 2012 08:38 AM PDT
OnStar followed up with us about their launch of OnStar RemoteLink app for BlackBerry (App World). At launch it is limited to the BlackBerry Bold 9900 and 9930 but since it is an HTML5 app they planned on using it to bring the app to more devices and platforms. We even saw a demo of it on a PlayBook previously. When I asked them when it is coming to more BlackBerry models they responded saying that:
OnStar also teamed up with Detroit music producer, OCTiV, to create an exclusive video featuring the RemoteLink app and several Chevrolet vehicles, including the 2012 Camaro. The original music score includes OnStar sounds and OCTiV's unique Dubstep sound, a subgenre of electronic dance music that originated in London, has been around since 1998, but has seen its greatest growth in the past few years.

| Inside BlackBerry Blog Introduces “Five Pic Friday” Posted: 25 May 2012 08:28 AM PDT RIM is definitely working hard on expanding their marketing and media presence. I’ve seen more BeBold commercials in the past month than I ever have in the entire 5 years I’ve been a BlackBerry subscriber, and more ads on tech sites as well. Alex Kinsella has had the Social Media team hard at work spreading the BlackBerry message, and their latest effort comes from the Inside BlackBerry blog in the form of Five Pic Friday. Every Friday, the team will choose five photos to feature, selected from thousands of Team BlackBerry submissions, including categories like Team BlackBerry Pets and BlackBerry Sunsets and Sunrises. There are some B-E-A-UTIFUL shots in these galleries, showcasing what BlackBerry fans can do with their so-called “boring, obsolete business phones that aren’t fun”, so go check ‘em out, and spread the word. If I may, *ahem*, let me personally recommend the second pic on today’s inaugural post: my pretteh kitteh, Goldie, taken a few years ago on my Bold 9700. I think this shot is an excellent argument for having RIM bring back Black & White and Sepia options in the BB camera. What say you, RIM? How can you deny the cuteness that is my kitty? Bring back Sepia! If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| BlackBerry Bold 9900 OS 7.1.0.437 Officially Released by China Unicom Posted: 25 May 2012 08:00 AM PDT China Unicom has made a bunch of BlackBerry Bold 9900 owners happy today with the launch of a new OS for the device. This brings OS 7.1.0.437 officially to the Bold 9900. Hopefully this fixes some of the calling issues I have been having with .402. Download the OS from BlackBerry.com Warning: This OS will NOT install on any other BlackBerry besides the one mentioned above. If you do not know how to upgrade your BlackBerry OS please start by reading this step by step guide. Don't forget to delete the vendor.xml file located in c:program files>common files>research in motion>apploader to install it on a different carriers device. Don't forget our usual warnings: do not download and install these updates if you don't know what you're doing. Incorrect procedure or just bad luck could render your BlackBerry inoperative or unstable. If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| Free PrankCam Adds Funny Frames to Pictures As You Take Them (OS 7.0+) Posted: 25 May 2012 07:50 AM PDT
Devcellent Solutions released a cool new free app called PrankCam for owners of BlackBerry 7 devices. The app allows you to overlay funny frames on pictures you take as you take them. For example you can add masks and more to pics. There are free packs built into the app along with more you can download for free or for a fee (that’s how they pay the rent). If I am not mistaken the reason this app is OS 7.0+ only is because that is the first OS RIM let devs overlay images over a camera field. Check out PrankCam free in App World and share your pics if you get any good ones! Feel free to also send the dev tips on better prank frames for the app. If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| SkyTunes Streams Music To & From Your PlayBook With Caching (PC/MAC) Posted: 25 May 2012 05:55 AM PDT SkyTunes Music Streaming has been available for awhile now but for some reason we have never mentioned it. SkyTunes lets you listen to your music collection on your PC or Mac from your PlayBook. It even works the other way around allowing you to control the music playing on your computer. Better yet it also caches your last 500 played songs on the device so even when you don't have internet access you still can access your songs. If you know how to setup port forwarding on your router you can even access your music over 3G or public Wi-Fi. Features include:
Check out more info at www.skytunes.ca or you can find SkyTunes in App World for $4.99 with a free trial. If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:
