Rubik's Cube for BlackBerry now available

Posted by Adam Zeis on 16 Sep 2010 2:41 pm
Growing up I used to sit down with my Rubik's cube every night and try to make my way through it. I never quite had the mental capacity for it and I honestly don't think I've ever actually completed the cube. Mine has since been tossed or ended up in a garage sale somewhere, but thanks to bPlay I can once again fail at the challenge. Their newest game is an officially licensed Rubik's Cube...

Leaked OS: 5.0.0.938 for the BlackBerry Bold 9700

Posted by Adam Zeis on 16 Sep 2010 11:52 am
In what we can hope is the last of the 5.0 leaks for the Bold 9700 (because we want 6.0 .. duh) BBLeaks has dropped OS 5.0.0.938 today. Hopefully some supercharged fun in this version, but it's a bit early to tell. If you're a 9700 owner, give this one a spin and let us know how things are. Fingers crossed that we'll see a 6.0 leak for the 9700 (and others) soon, or maybe just a 9780 release...

Contest: Camera Plus - Email multiple pictures easily. Win 1 of 50 free copies!

Posted by Bla1ze on 15 Sep 2010 2:15 pm
One thing that has always bothered me about BlackBerry email is how it handles attachments. It's not exactly always easy to attach multiple images and files with the way it is set up on OS 5. BlackBerry 6 has improved upon that but, since BlackBerry 6 thus far is limited to one device that doesn't really help the majority of users out there right now. Camera Plus has a nice fix for us all....
