Pacman BB

Great news for Pacman lovers! BlackBerry OS announced a free version of Pacman for the BlackBerry. And I have to admit, it’s just like the arcade version. It comes complete with a high score list, mp3 sounds, and support for trackball and keyboard. It’s available for the Tour on down to the Pearl, but unfortunately the Storm is not included.

Like myself I’m sure we’ve all been waiting for a new round of OS 5.0 leaks… Well today I’m proud to announce that new OS’ have been leaked for the BlackBerry Bold 9000, Curve 8900, Storm 9530 and Tour 9630!! This is the first leak we’ve seen for the BlackBerry Tour and we’ve glad its finally here. Apparently this Tour OS (.140) is old and buggy now, so as much as you might want to install it, maybe wait for a newer version. The leaked OS for the Curve 8900 and Bold (.190) are brand new and freshly released internally. Apparently .190 for both the Bold and Curve 8900 sport the new threaded SMS feature!

Follow the links below to download any of the OS versions, however please remember these OS’ have NOT been officially released by RIM. Many applications may not work on your device, it’s recommended you do a full backup before installing.

IDC Confirms What We All Know, BlackBerry Rules!

By Susan C on Aug 08, 2009 in AT&T (Cingular), Alltel, BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, Curve 8300 Series, Curve 8900 Series, Pearl 8100 Series, Sprint-Nextel, Storm 9500 Series, T-Mobile, USA, Verizon.

blackberry-vs-iphone[1]

The Research and Consulting firm, IDC, listed the top-selling smartphone models in the US. It lists vendor sales to carriers and channels as well. So far it’s going on preliminary data. The actual numbers won’t be available till the end of the month. So let’s see what the firm says so far.

No 10 is the HTC Touch from Sprint, Nextel, and Verizon Wireless.

No 9 is the HTC Touch Pro from Sprint, Verizon Wireless, AT&T, and others.

No 8 is the Palm Pre from Sprint.

No 7 is the T-Mobile G1 by HTC from T-Mobile USA.

No 6 is the Research In Motion BlackBerry Storm from Verizon Wireless.

No 5 is the Research In Motion BlackBerry Bold from AT&T.

No 4 is the Apple iPhone 3G (both versions) from AT&T.

No 3 is the Research In Motion BlackBerry Pearl (all 81xx series, excluding the Flip) from AT&T, Sprint, Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, and others.

No 2 is the Apple iPhone 3GS (both versions) from AT&T.

No 1 is the Research In Motion BlackBerry Curve (83xx series and 8900) from AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon Wireless, and others.

So what does that say? Research In Motion rules the smartphone world, and the BlackBerry Curve is still holding the number one position. I’m not surprised, though I’m very curious to see how the numbers change with the BlackBerry Tour 9630 entering the smartphone scene. I really like the Tour, it’s been very reliable, and I’m curious to see if it will rise to the top or come pretty close.

Anyone have any thoughts to share?

The BlackBerry Speaker Test – Comparing Tour, Bold, Storm, Curve 8900

By James on Jul 13, 2009 in BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, Curve 8900 Series, Storm 9500 Series, Tour 9600 Series.

Here is a great video which Ronen from BerryReview found. This video compares all the latest BlackBerry models (Curve 8900, Bold, Storm 9530, and Tour 9630) and their speakers to see which one sounds the best. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a video quite like this, the creator rates them side by side using the same music demo. It appears that the Bold may still have the best speaker, followed by the hot new Tour. Check out the video for youself and let us know what you think…
