As always, it's been another busy week here at CrackBerry.com. Lots of new apps and themes to talk about today... Some available in our software store, others out and about on the web! Lets get right down to it!
NEW SOFTWARE
Major League Baseball Widgets for BlackBerry
Baseball season is upon us. If you're a big baseball fan you're going to want to install this on your Berry. The new Major League Baseball Widgets for BlackBerry allow you to follow all major league teams in real-time, on your Berry.
Installation is easy. You can install OTA from your BlackBerry... Simply go to http://wap.mlb.com/blackberry. You can choose from the general MLB.com widget, or install the widget for your favorite team.
FindMe App for Facebook and BlackBerry
From Electric Pocket (makres of FlipSide Music Player and Ringo Ringtone Manager) comes FindMe. It's a free app you can install on your Berry that lets you 'tag' your location. No GPS is required as the application uses cellphone towers to pinpoint your device much like Google Maps' My Location. Once your location is mapped you can share it with your friends on Facebook. In fact, if you keep tagging your location, your Facebook friends will know where you are at all times :) (move over 'big brother', FACEBOOK is now watching you!)
At any rate, the pre-beta is now complete and ready for more beta testers. Try it out, and let us know what you think!
Real World BlackBerry Theme
Enhance your Berry with a new Theme. It's full of new, fun icons that you will enjoy if you're tired of the same old default things installed on your device. Designed by professional designers, it is one of the best new themes added to our collection in-store.
For more info and to purchase for only $7.00:
Jott for BlackBerryJott is an application that allows you to reply to emails on your BlackBerry using your voice! You can reply by speaking into your Berry, or by using a Bluetooth headset device. It is seemlessly integrated into your email app, and claims to be 3 to 5 times faster than typing out replies the 'old fashioned' way :)
Jott is currently in limited Free Beta. You can download Jott OTA by visiting www.jott.com/bb from your Berry.
If you're a compulsive driver/texter than I highly recommend you get this app for safety's sake!
