| BlackBerry 10 App World Possible Mockups & OLED Screen Details Posted: 27 Jun 2012 01:40 PM PDT
The early details of BlackBerry 10 devices continue to leak with design and hardware decisions coming out. BBOS scored what they are hearing are mockups for App World on BlackBerry 10 devices. It looks pretty generic though I am really just hoping for an "Update All" button at launch.
Also worth noting is another slow leak from N4BB detailing just a little bit more about RIM's design decision for using an OLED screen in BlackBerry 10 devices. It describes how the screen benefits from battery saving when it shows black themes or backgrounds and looks like a unified surface. Worth a read if that is your thing though OLED technology is not exclusive to RIM. If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

Usually whenever I see a BlackBerry Bridge update I hope to see a PlayBook OS update but this time it does not look like it will be the case. Jason let us know that RIM has pushed out a tiny update to BlackBerry Bridge bringing it to v2.0.0.35. according to the change log this fixes an issue that I have never heard anyone really complaining about. Supposedly this update:
I personally blame AT&T but I have no proof for that. If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| BlackBerry Curve 9310 Simulator Available – RIM Asks Devs to Prepare Apps Posted: 27 Jun 2012 10:50 AM PDT
Its no big secret that RIM was working on a BlackBerry Curve 9310 and now it is official. They have announced the specs on the BlackBerry DevBlog and emailed all developers asking them to prepare their apps. Devs will have to login and specifically confirm their apps support the device. Due to similarities with the Curve 9320 and Curve 9220 devices they should be able to adapt apps from there to run on the 9310 just fine. Devs can find the simulator for the Curve 9310 here along with the specs below (source): BlackBerry 9310 smartphone – Device Info
PS: Has anyone figured out if this is the BlackBerry Curve 9315 that was found in the Device.xml files? If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| Orangepixel Brings Six 8-Bit Pixel Art Games to the PlayBook Posted: 27 Jun 2012 10:38 AM PDT
We can thank the PlayBook Android player for six more addictive games for us. Orangepixel has ported six of their 8-Bit pixel art 2D games to the PlayBook and the Android Player mostly handles them fine. This includes a game called INC that has been pointed out to me a few times as a comic book style game. There is also Neoteria which is a classic side scrolling shooter that makes me want to punch in the Konami code. Then there is Stardash which reminds me of Mario Bros on the Gameboy back in the day. Check out Orangepixels full line of PlayBook games in App World and let us know what you think If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| Fuzzy Cubes HD is 3D Tetris With Cute Creatures & Bombs Posted: 27 Jun 2012 09:05 AM PDT
When Workhorse Bytes first let us know about their Fuzzy Cubes HD game it made me laugh. You set the bar pretty high when you describe your game as an "insane 3d mixture of Tetris and Rubik's Cube with cute furry creatures and bombs." The game offers up 40 levels of gameplay that is a bit hard to describe but works well on the PlayBook though it can be aggravatingly frustrating. Instead I will show you the cross platform trailer they put up: Desktop Video Link | Mobile Video LinkFuzzy Cubes is available now for $1.99 in App World If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| Top Dev Motek Mobile Shares Their Experience With BlackBerry Development Posted: 27 Jun 2012 08:08 AM PDT Motek Mobile is a top BlackBerry developer with apps like Screen Muncher, Color ID, and more. They just sat down with Jesse Ariss (@jesseariss) on the BlackBerry dev blog and shared some of their experiences with BlackBerry development currently and over the years. I was impressed to learn that Motek sees a daily average of 150,000 and 200,000 downloads with nearly seven million daily unique users and even more if they include themes. They also counted over 387 million Screen Munchies in the past year all of which was made possible by their 12 in house developers. I always find it interesting to hear why developers are developing for BlackBerry and this interview does not disappoint. Motek seems extremely excited about BlackBerry 10 and the benefits gained by App World. Definitely worth a read to see what a major developer thinks of the platform and the direction it is heading. Check out the full interview on the BlackBerry DevBlog. If you liked this article, you might find these interesting:

| McDonalds Canada Behinds the Scene Photo Shoot Stars a PlayBook Posted: 27 Jun 2012 07:05 AM PDT You may have heard or even seen this video McDonalds Canada created which goes behind the scenes at one of their photo shoots. They were trying to explain to a Twitter follower why a cheeseburger in the store does not look the same as the one in the photo shoots. Since I don't eat cheeseburgers I avoided watching the video but Jason pointed out (via BerryReporter) that it features a BlackBerry PlayBook. In the video McDonald's Canada Hope Bagozzi shows off the Twitter users question on a BlackBerry PlayBook (With the BlackBerry Logo blurred out).

| Free “Oh the Huge Manatee” Flash Game for the PlayBook Posted: 27 Jun 2012 05:55 AM PDT
A friend at RIM pointed out a new game to me that stuck in my head so I had to download it. It turns out that I had read about the "Oh the Huge Manatee" meme awhile back on a security forum. Turns out that Dig Your Own Grave (Aka Little Grey Media) created a game for the meme. The gameplay is pretty simplistic with you hiding from bouncing Manatees but it definitely gets challenging and there are some curve balls that I won't ruin. You can check out Oh The Huge Manatee free in App World or simply play the non PlayBook optimized version on their website. Let me know what your high score is!!!
