The good folks from Bellshare have just let us know they have launched a free version of their popular email/text popup application. BePopup Free aka BerryPopup will show popups for e-mails with basic sender and subject information as well as Bellshare.com and CrackBerry.com forum notification emails. The free version has just been listed in BlackBerry App World for users to download and as a special bonus, if you are looking to purchase the full version you can now get $2 off when using the coupon code "2offberrypopup" in the CrackBerry App Store.

Apps I have used on my 9550. Seriously, snag that $2 off now and get the full version. Worth every penny.
(grabbed my copy from the Crackberry superstore for 1/2 off. :) --)

Good enough for free...dunno bout paying for it.

Cool. If I did a lot of TXTing and all, I might consider buying the full version. But even though it is discounted, I don't really see getting it.
But this free version is perfect for me. Simply enhances basic mail functionality a tad. Great!

I use Leave It On's PopUp notification. For about the same file size, LIO does a lot more.
Other than that, you can't go wrong with a Bellshare app.

Much as I love BellShare in general, Leave It On has a new beta that is a wonder. I'm staying with them.

Amen to that. I was gonna say this, but you guys beat me to it :)

scuebydue May 7, 2010 at 8:42 am
Free version is just for emails
Crackberrier09 May 7, 2010 at 9:15 am
FYI. It works with my SMS texts!
drzmvpx809 May 7, 2010 at 7:29 pm

The Free version seems sufficient. What's the main advantages for buying it?
jlb21 May 6, 2010 at 3:42 pm
Agreed. Depends on what you need. As I noted above, I just am using the free version to add a tiny bit of enhancement to the basic mail functionality.

I downloaded it on my Tour 9630 with 5.0 OS (.484 hybrid) and when I reboot, icon gives generic BB icon and app doesnt show in OPTIONS. Its listed under APPLICATIONS and I can delete but thats about it.
AshDeezy May 6, 2010 at 7:54 pm
I noticed that if you tell it to "open inbox" on an SMS, it brings up the Messages folder instead of SMS and MMS. If you have these separated (I assume most do as OS 5.0 defaults to being separate) your SMS' aren't even in that folder.
Am I missing something or is it just the way it is?

RIM has yet to give developers direct access to the SMS inbox.

I have the blackberry 8520 curve, I can't get the link to download this app

wait for it to stop working in like two weeks! thumbs down bellshare...
I think these free apps are a marketing ploy to make people familiar with the app, then it when it eventually breaks, there is hope that the user will just give in and buy the the full release.

Love the Steve Jobs reference! HAHAAAAAAA!!
