Docks
No accessory collection would be complete without the BlackBerry Dock/Charging Pod. I've purchased one for every BlackBerry I've owned going back to the Bold 9000. Not only can I listen to music, transfer media, and charge my device, but it makes for a great alarm clock that sits by bed no matter where I am.

Seidio Active Case & Holster
It's no surprise that I am the resident klutz in my household. I'm prone to not only your typical accidental drops and falls but some strange street and sidewalk dings as well. That's why my favorite and most reliable case is the Seidio Active Case & Holster. This combo not only provides solid and sturdy protection but allows me to keep my BlackBerry Bold 9900 by my side to quickly access at all times during the day. The holster is versatile enough to be used with other cases as well in case you want to switch off and also comes with a built-in sleeper magnet.

Zagg Shield for the BlackBerry PlayBook
Before I even opened the box for my BlackBerry PlayBook I had the Zagg Shield on the table ready to go. While the screen itself is sturdy enough on its own I welcomed the peace of mind this shield brought. With it's patented military grade scratch-proof film, I've always trusted Zagg to protect my devices. The lifetime guarantee ensures that if it ever becomes scratched, torn or damaged you will get a free replacement as long as you carefully follow the installation instructions (bubbles and mistakes are not covered). While you're at it be sure to pick up a screen protector for your smartphone as well to protect against fingerprints, smudges, and scratches.

X-Mini II Capsule Speaker
Way back at the beginning of this year at CES I was lucky enough to hear the sound of the X-Mini line on the exhibition floor. It certainly lives up to its motto of "sound beyond size" especially when you realize it can fit in the palm of your hand. The X-Mini features excellent sound quality with almost no distortion to speak of, comes with a Buddy-Jack system to connect a row of X-minis to a single source, easily connects to your device with the 3.5mm stowaway audio plug, and is available in multiple colors. If you want to take your music with you wherever you go for a reasonable price then this is speaker to use.
CrackBerry True Tales of BlackBerry Use and Abuse
When it comes to BlackBerry abuse I'm guilty as charged although I'd rather call it being a power user. My Bold never leaves my side so if you see me walking down the street chances are I'm staring down at my screen typing merrily away. So when someone politely asked me the other night at the BlackBerry 10 Gold SDK Tweetup why I was on my BlackBerry (tweetng and BBM'ing about the event of course), I realized it was time once again to take the 12 step approach to curb my love..err dependence on my device (at least until the release of BB10). Our own founder and fearless leader, Kevin Michaluk, is one of the authors so there's no denying all the stories and tips included are ones to live by.
Here's wishing you and yours a safe and happy Holiday Season, from all of us at CrackBerry.com
