New from ShaoSoft comes SixTools - a handy app that adds some great features to your OS 6 BlackBerry. The app takes on some much needed functionality and gives you more options and control over your device. With SixTools you can add extra convenience keys (using volume and mute/play buttons), a battery meter, holster sounds and more. Torch users even get slider sounds and an orientation lock. Having the extra convenience keys is worth the price alone. SixTools sells for $3.49 in the CrackBerry App Store.
Contest: We have 50 copies of SixTools to give away. Just leave a comment on this post to enter. Contest ends this Sunday at midnight PST. Note: Since SixTools is specifically for OS 6, if you are still running OS 5 we will give you a copy of ShaoSoft's ExtraKeys (added convenience keys) instead. Good luck!
