| RIM Discontinuing 16GB PlayBook Model in Favor of 32GB & 64GB Models Posted: 07 Jun 2012 02:30 AM PDT
According to a letter received by ubermanx from RIM (via CrackBerry) it looks like RIM is clearing out stock of their 16GB entry level PlayBook. The letter above states that RIM is letting the supply of 16GB PlayBooks sell through after which stores will no longer get stock. Instead RIM is recommending vendors sell the 32GB and 64GB models which are not going anywhere. We know that RIM is working on a new revision of the PlayBook with a 1.5Ghz processor along with 4G so this could be part of their strategy. It also makes sense since RIM has been heavily discounting the 16GB model with the 32GB and 64GB models not far behind. What I am really interested is when these devices will be getting a BlackBerry 10 update or at least the OS 2.1 update officially. Cant wait!

| Two New Retail Concept Videos From the BlackBerry Enterprising Minds Posted: 06 Jun 2012 11:51 AM PDT Awhile back the BlackBerry Innovation forum released some concept videos of how RIM would imagine future technology. While RIM never really discussed them they were quickly pulled. Now Lucas @N4BB spotted two new videos from the BlackBerry Enterprising Minds Innovation Forums dated in 2011. They were released on the BlackBerryDE YouTube channel and are in German so I am not sure exactly what their audience is.

| QNX Unveils New Reference Design Jeep Wrangler CAR 2 Posted: 06 Jun 2012 11:04 AM PDT
We told you that QNX's Auto team was holding a contest to guess the next reference vehicle. That vehicle has now been announced as a Jeep Wrangler Sahara and the 17 people who guessed it correctly are getting their $25 Starbucks gift cards. The new Jeep Wrangler CAR 2 prototype demonstrates new features like the car posting updates to Facebook that list the song and artist of the current playing songs. You can also control that function using voice commands. A demo was setup for the Jeep during Telematics Detroit which you can find on the QNX Software Systems' Facebook page. Other features include a reskinnable digital instrument cluster, infotainment system, media player, smartphone integration, NFC pairing, and Ultra HD hands free communication. You can check out more slick pictures of the Jeep Wrangler on Flickr. Keep in mind the whole user interface is designed in HTML5. Other highlights of the new reference vehicle include:

| Free Think Square Dots and Boxes Game for the PlayBook Posted: 06 Jun 2012 08:53 AM PDT
I am not sure how many of you remember playing Dots & Boxes (Wikipedia) back on paper back in the day but its a true classic. Mobidream released the game free for the PlayBook allowing you to play against the computer. In case you don't know the rules the idea is that you earn points by completing the fourth side of a square. Each turn you get to place one line between the dots. When you complete a square with your line you get another turn until no more squares remain. Check out Think Square free in App World If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| Take Solitaire On The Go With Spider from SolverLabs Posted: 06 Jun 2012 07:42 AM PDT
Jen let us know that SolverLabs has a really good implementation of Spider and Solitaire (Klondike) for BlackBerry smartphones called Spider. The game allows you to play both of these hugely popular card games. I remember Magmic used to have Spider game back in the day that I used to be addicted to but the SolverLabs version seems to have better controls. They have also thrown in tweaks to increase the chances of actually finishing the game along with other useful additions.
Check out Spider for $1.99 in App World and let us know what you think. I just wish they had a free trial for others to try out. If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| Free Junk Call Blocker Adds Blocked Call Notification Posted: 06 Jun 2012 06:58 AM PDT S4BB let us know that they have updated their free Junk Call Blocker app to v1.5.103. This new version adds a key feature to the app to set a voice notification when a call is blocked along with a more subtle LED or vibration notification. The app still allows you to block calls with your own white and blacklist. All you need is an OS 6.0+ device to get in on the action.

| Mobile Spy v6.0 Introduces BlackBerry Social Media Monitoring and App Blocking Posted: 06 Jun 2012 05:55 AM PDT
We mentioned Mobile Spy v4 awhile back in 2010 when it started offering some serious mobile spyware for parents and employers. They let us know that they have continued their efforts to keep children and employer information safe with the release of Mobile Spy v6. This version adds social media monitoring and app blocking to Mobile Spy. It also continues to silently record user activity of children or employees to be viewed online including SMS, GPS, call info, photos taken, etc. It now can also view conversations which happen in Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp Messenger, BlackBerry Messenger, BlackBerry PIN Messenger, GTalk, Twitter and others. If you aren't creeped out yet the app also lets you view a list of applications installed to the BlackBerry and forcibly block any app remotely. They are also able to record Gmail App email messages and YouTube videos played along with how long a child or employee spends using each app. Last but not least the app can be uninstalled remotely. If this big brother style monitoring sounds exactly like what you are looking for then check out more info at www.mobile-spy.com. They are also available on five other platforms with similar features. If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:
