Get your MAC on!!

The MacinStorm Theme from PimpMyBerry is available for the Storm series only!! This will give your Berry the Mac touch. There's the typical Mac dock at the bottom of your screen, and applications found on it will even bounce when selected. Instead of the default hourglass while the device is processing, the Mac 'beach ball' animation has been integrated to give the theme just one more touch of authenticity.

You can register at PimpMyBerry to obtain the download link.

Close applications for a faster BlackBerry

There are two really quick ways to close out applications which might be taking up memory and bandwidth. First is to just click on the application, then once in it hit the Menu button and close. I’ve been trying to make a habit of closing out unused applications, so hopefully this isn’t as big a problem in the future. The other is to hit Menu in the Applications Menu, and select Switch Application. That should give you a list of running applications. Close out as many as you possibly can.

Of course, if you don’t have any signal-gathering applications open, you might be stuck with a choppy stream. But if you have them open and aren’t getting optimal streaming strength, close out all those other applications and see if it helps.
