Better finger selection for Copy/Paste/Edit coming to future Storm OS!!

iphoneges-stormos

We just received a tip that an upcoming BlackBerry Storm OS will introduce better finger movements for copy/pasting and selecting text. In the picture above you see the little box which you can drag along to highlight text. It’s quite a good idea!! We can’t tell you just yet what OS this will appear in however expect it soon at the rate of all these beta leaks. Using the box to slide your finger on the screen it makes it a lot easier to select text and copy/paste things. This little box at first reminded me of the hover on the iPhone, however it does not show the words magnified. Regardless it’s a great addition to the BlackBerry Storm and will for sure come in handy!

Here’s a video so you under.. Forgive me trying to operate camera and Storm at the same time…

Verizon BlackBerry Bold 9030 and Pearl Flip 8230 details…

blackberryniagra

Un-official image of BlackBerry Niagara

News has arrived about Verizon’s upcoming BlackBerry plans. It’s no secret that Verizon will be getting the Pearl Flip soon, however according to Boy Genius the Pearl Flip has been removed from their upcoming device road map. This could mean one of two things, either Verizon has decided not to launch the device (not likely) or that it will be launching VERY soon. But for those that are looking for more of a business device have we got good news for you! Remember the BlackBerry code-named Niagara? Its the cross between the Curve 8900 and Bold 9000. This will be the other device that Verizon will be launching. Niagara is rumored to be called Bold 9030. It will a little bigger than the Curve, however smaller than Bold and will feature a Qualcomm MSM7600 processor with a large high resolution 480×360 display, full QWERTY keyboard, EVDO Rev. A, aGPS, 3.2 megapixel camera, and will run BlackBerry OS 4.6. The only sad news is that Boy Genius does not currently have a release date for either of these devices. Previously the BlackBerry Niagara was rumored to launch sometime around May 2009 (possibly at WES 09?). Stay tuned we will update you when new info becomes available…

Review: Coveroo Custom Battery Doors for BlackBerry

coveroo-review-intro

Have you heard of Coveroo before? They offer laser engraved battery doors for all kinds of devices including BlackBerry smartphones. We had a chance test out Coveroo’s battery doors for the BlackBerry Storm, Curve and Pearl. Unfortunately no one on the team has a Bold at the moment or we would have checked them out too. I decided to get a custom door for my Storm with the BlackBerry Sync logo on it and then they included a couple Valentines Day designs for the Curve and Pearl. Coveroo offers all different stock colored battery doors so you don’t have to mix and match colors, of course unless you want too. Coveroo’s are currently available for the BlackBerry Bold, Curve, Pearl, Storm and 8800 series. The cool part about them is you can choose from hundreds of different designs or send in your own custom design (for an additional charge). Read More
