If you are in the UK and lucky enough to be in a EE 4G area you may want to consider one of their new 30 day plans they have just rolled out. With more and more folk shying away from 24 month contracts due to smartphones getting upgraded so soon this may well be a popular option. Luckily for us BlackBerry addicts both the Z10 and Q10 support LTE, so until the other UK networks release their own...

The Q10 will be available at T-Mobile on June 5th for $99 down at $20/month for 24 months.

Can BlackBerry Messenger get any better? Check out Stickers for BBM on BlackBerry 10

Posted by James Richardson on 29 May 2013 4:42 am

We all know that BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) is the greatest instant messaging client in the world - and come the summer time even our iPhone and Android buddies will probably agree with us - however I recently discovered Stickers for BBM which spices up messaging a whole bunch on BlackBerry 10. The way it works is that the app runs separately to BBM. Open the app and you are presented with...

A small tidbit of news for all you folks out there who are using WordPress as your blogging platform of choice.

As of right now, there's not...

Leaked OS 10.1.0.2354 for the BlackBerry Z10 (STL100-1)

Leaked OS 10.1.0.2354 for the BlackBerry Z10 (STL100-1)

Every time an OS leak appears it seems as though the BlackBerry Z10 owners with the STL100-1 variation get left out. Understandably, that's a bit upsetting. This time around though, there is joy to be had as OS 10.1.0.2354 is now available for download. It comes as a full auto-loader file, for simplicity sake, meaning there's no difference in the methodology of installing this versus any other...

T-Mobile BlackBerry Q10 gets an early unboxing

On the heels of news that the BlackBerry Q10 could be landing on T-Mobile as early as next week, it looks like some users may already be ahead of the game. Geoffrey sent in this video unboxing of a BlackBerry Q10 on T-Mobile that he received earlier today. It's pretty much what you'd expect - the device, battery charger and manuals - but sadly no headset is included. (Not to worry because we...

The BlackBerry Q10: Conference tested, blogger approved

We've been covering conferences for years. It's always a challenge to sort out just what gear to bring to a show. Extra cables, power cords, cameras and especially what device to use. We're BlackBerry addicts and keep bigger stash of devices than the average consumer, so there's always a choice as to what device to use at a conference. Heading into BlackBerry Live last year the obvious choice...

BlackBerry Q10 expected to launch on T-Mobile June 5th

As prospective BlackBerry Q10 owners wait patiently for word of an official US release date, TmoNews is reporting that the Q10 may be available in the US as early as June 5th on T-Mobile, which means it could release on other carriers around the same time as well.  At BlackBerry Live we heard once again that the Q10 would be arriving in the US in June, we just weren't sure exactly when.

BlackBerry Z10 gets some extra class thanks to Case-Mate's real wood backing

Posted by Simon Sage on 28 May 2013 1:03 pm

One of the first cases we picked up during the BlackBerry Z10 launch in Toronto was Case-Mate's real wood cases. These are two-piece cases with Rosewood, Zebrawood, or brushed aluminum backing, plus silicon inner lining for a smidgen of impact protection. Despite the metallic finish, the casing itself is plastic. This is kind of a disappointing contrast to the premium feeling of the rear of the...

It's skiing time with Big Mountain Snowboarding for BlackBerry 10

Posted by James Richardson on 28 May 2013 12:07 pm

We first took a look at Big Mountain Snowboarding some time ago when it was released for the PlayBook. Now though it is available for BlackBerry 10 so you can keep it in your pocket for those times you have a few minutes to crank out some gaming action. The idea of the game is to get to the bottom of the slope but while doing so you must pass through a certain amount of flags and bust some...

CrackBerry Mailbag: BlackBerry 10 may still be coming to the PlayBook

It is, it isn't. It is, it isn't.  At this point we really have no clue if we'll see BlackBerry 10 for the PlayBook. We heard months ago that it could be coming to the BlackBerry PlayBook at some point, but it's been very hush hush ever since. Even at BlackBerry Live we heard not a peep about BlackBerry 10 on the PlayBook. As the rumors continue to fly, even the official BlackBerry Mexico...
