UberTwitter is the Most Popular BlackBerry Twitter Client


UberTwitter



I came across this article on Mashable.com yesterday and was stunned when I read it. According to TwitStat, UberTwitter is the most popular Twitter client for BlackBerry devices. I hadn't really thought about it before, but if I had I would have surely picked TwitterBerry given its age and ease of use. I guess UberTwitter has won over the BlackBerry nation thus far. UberTwitter accounts for 1.26 percent of Twitter users, edging out TwitterBerry's 0.87 percent. SocialScope, still in private beta, sits at 0.35. Clients like TinyTwitter and TweetGenius also made the list but they just didn't have a great showing.

Pandora for BlackBerry Updated to 1.1.1


Pandora



Pandora for BlackBerry has been updated from 1.1.0 to 1.1.1 and fixes various networking issues. Users will be prompted to update when logging in. The update repairs issues that some users on certain devices were experiencing including HTTP 502 errors. Not all devices were having the same issue. From Pandora release notes:



  • Fixed HTTP 502 issue (and other networking-related issues such as the "connection closed" problem on the 8350i)


  • Fixed volume going to "full" after an audio system alert (phone, email, IM) on Storm


  • For listeners who use the low end of the volume scale, the jump from 3 bars to 4 bars isn't as jarring anymore


To download visit www.pandora.com from your device. Thanks to everyone that sent this in!

Kayak Releases Free Flight, Hotel Search And Booking Application


Kayak Releases Free Flight,Hotel Search And Booking Application!


Kayak.com has released a great application that allows you to search, book and compare pricing on airlines and hotels all from within one application on your BlackBerry. I tested the application out just to see how well it would function and what type of results I would have with it, and I'm pleased to say it works great.



Best part for me was it actually included Canadian listings and recognized all major Canadian airports. The application is very light weight and looks nice considering, now I have nothing against using say--Worldmate, but some features of Worldmate are paid features that also get downloaded when even using the free version so it makes it a heavy application. This is a great alternative with a little bit more functionality added, Kayak supports all BlackBerry devices 81xx series and up.

Free Audible Audio Book App For BlackBerry Updated


Free Audible Audio Book App For BlackBerry Updated


Audible.com, which provides a free audio book application for BlackBerry devices, recently got a nice overhaul. Previously users had stated the application was a little slow and sluggish and really didn't perform that well on BlackBerry devices. This time around with the version being updated to 1.4.2, Audible has their application working quite fine. New updates and fixes are as listed below:



  • All screens have been optimized for faster loading.

  • No more waiting to get back to your audio. You are immediately taken to the player screen upon loading the application, if your last action within the app was listening to audio.

  • Performance of user-interface elements has been improved. (scrolling through lists, audio playback buttons, etc.)

  • My Library is now stored directly on your device for faster loading of your purchased titles.

  • Support for the Curve 8900

  • Audio playback bug while Audible for BlackBerry is minimized has been fixed

  • Improved support for BlackBerry Enterprise Servers

  • Landscape typing for the BlackBerry Storm now supported



If you have used the Audible application before and were not happy with it, try it out again as the update really does fix a lot of concerns. With over 60,000 titles available for download or streaming and plenty of free content to go around, surely worth a look.

Free Forward, Reply and Edit Application


A long running ache with BlackBerry email is not being able to edit when replying or forwarding. A new app from bberryapp.com changes that. Forward, Reply & Edit integrates with your BlackBerry messages and allows you to do just that. Open an email, choose Forward & Edit or Reply & Edit from the menu and you can change any of the content in the email. Why this isn't a standard feature is beyond me. My only gripe with this is that to activate you are required to send an email to a friend letting them know about the application. Not much to ask for a free app, but it may be spammy to some. You can snag Forward, Reply & Edit free OTA from this link.
