Downloaded Blackberry Traffic today from the Beta Zone. I was never a fan of the previous versions, but since they added the voice guided feature I figured I’d give a shot. Since downloading, I’ve tried it in a few spots and would love to try it out, but I haven’t been able to get a gps signal. Guess I’ll be using Google Maps til Traffic decides to behave.

WordPress for BB has got to be one of my fave apps after discovering it again for the first time.

After about a day of spotty or no Blackberry data service in North America, it is slowly returning. Millions of Blackberry users had hips that were not buzzing due to a faulty switch that caused outages across several continents. This has been the largest RIM service failure in years. With many customers and investors already losing faith in the communications giant, this was definitely not a good look. Hopefully for their sake (and mine since a I’m a BB fan), this isn’t a sign of things to come.


There are a few hands free bluetooth speakerphones available on the market right now. While they all perform that basic function, some do it well, and others not so much. I was able to get my hands on Freeway($129.99) from Jabra, and i gotta say, i’m impressed. It paired with my phone in about 10 seconds out of the box. Before making or taking any calls on it, i decided to check out the sound quality by streaming some mp3′s to it from my phone. (more…)

RIM made their much anticipated touch and type hybrid phone a reality with their announcement at Blackberry world. Feature to be included are HD video recording and playback, NFC and Liquid Graphics touchscreen. The 4g device will be available this summer in both GSM and CDMA varietis. You can find the GSM version on T-Mobile, and the CDMA version on either Sprint or Verizon.

Apple made headlines when it was discovered that iPhones and iPads use their built in gps transceivers to track and record their owners where abouts. Even more disturbing is the fact that the feature can’t be turned off. Well all you Android os phone users, no need to feel left out. Apparently Android devices do the same thing. It’s believed that this info is used for location based add campaigns, but only the manufactures know for sure.

In order to survive as a tech company today, you have to remain on the cutting edge. I’d have to say the Acer Iconia ($1,199.00), fits the bill. It’s a double screened, hinged tablet that’s jam packed with apps and gadgets. It can be configured either as two seperate screens, one large screen , or a screen and a vertual keyboard. It’s also powered by an Intel i5 cpu witch will give it enough power to handle business app. Think of it Nintendo DS’s more articulate and mature big brother.
