Our friends at Elecite have just introduced a new theme to go along with their gaming themes. First they started with PSB, which was based on Sony’s Playstation. Now Elecite is proud to introduce XBerry, which changes the look of your BlackBerry to Microsoft’s Xbox 360 interface. This hot theme features a sliding bottom dock (on Bold, Curve 8900 and Storm) with 10 icons (7 on Storm) and 2 today screen icons to keep you in sync with your phone. It’s a pretty hot design and available for BlackBerry Bold, Curve 83xx, Curve 8900, Storm and 8800 series for only $6.99.

Tellme for BlackBerry

Microsoft's fairly new little $800 million dollar toy, TellMe has just launched their service for BlackBerry. Tellme is expected to take on Google and Yahoo all in one by offering Location Based Services via GPS or cell phone triangulation. 

Tellme allows you to speak what your looking for. For example simply say "Coffee" and it will find a local coffee shop for you. Tellme offers GPS navigation, traffic information, maps, local listings and weather.

Tellme only works on certain BlackBerry devices (8800, 8820, 8830, and 8310) and seems to be only working in the USA on AT&T or Sprint for now. To get Tellme simply visit m.tellme.com from your mobile device or go to tellme.com from your computer.
