Grand Opening Sale: Use coupon code "superstore" at checkout to save 10% on All Accessories! Ends Thursday at Midnight PST.

The two feature request questions our ShopCrackBerry team gets asked most often are when will you rollout more international stores? and why can't I also buy accessories for my iPad, iPhone, Android tablet, etc. from ShopCrackBerry, since I know you sell them on your other sister sites' stores? 

Today I'm happy to announce we're tackling the latter question with the introduction of our ShopCrackBerry Accessory Superstore! We thought long and hard about the best way to implement this one, and I think we've nailed it. When you click into our regular shop.crackberry.com store, you're still only presented with BlackBerry accessories. However, we've added a tab at the top of the site that says Android, iOS & more that when clicked expands the product offering so in addition to BlackBerry accessories you can now browse and buy accessories for all platforms. And if you want to get directly to the Superstore offering, instead of heading to shop.crackberry.com you can go straight to superstore.crackberry.com.

And don't worry BlackBerry fans, we are NOT going to start running reviews or anything like that on the blogs here for non-BlackBerry accessories, and if you don't want to see accessories other than BlackBerry you never have to (you can easily ignore the Superstore altogether). But with so many BlackBerry owners now owning a second mobile device from another platform (like an iPad, etc.) or having even switched their mobile phone to a new platform but still wanting to shop with us as they have had great experiences in the past, it just made sense for us to expand our service offering. 

We hope you enjoy and take advantage of the new store offering. Be sure to spread the word. And as always, we thank you for continued your support!

Just a few weeks ago we unveiled the newly revamped CrackBerry Superstore. With this mobile client, you can browse all of the apps, themes, games and even accessories available for purchase from all of our stores. The new layout makes things easier to navigate, and helps you get to exactly what you want. With the ability to search new items, deals, bundles and top-selling apps, you can check out all of the latest and greatest right from your device. The video above takes a look at all of the features of the store (its kind of long, but there was a lot to cover) and will give you a better idea of just how it works. If you haven't installed the mobile Superstore yet, you can download it free from software.crackberry.com/appstore.asp.

Earlier this week we launched our new mobile CrackBerry Mobile SuperStore which has received a whack load of downloads and a ton of positive feedback so far. There are still even more improvements and features coming, but users are loving the Superstore / aisle concept which separates apps, games, themes and accessories into their own areas and the overall speed of the new app. If you haven't given it a go yet, you can download the CrackBerry Mobile Super Store here.

CrackBerry Superstore Launch Sale: From now until April 5, all software purchases (apps, games, and themes) are 20% off in both the CrackBerry Superstore and the standard mobile web browser version of the app store (crackberryappstore.com on your BlackBerry). Customers just need to enter coupon code, "super" during checkout.Please Note: The coupon code does not work in the full web store (browsing from computer) - it's only valid in the mobile app store and SuperStore clients.

Tons of App Deals: 20% off coupon aside, there are a simply a ton of great app deals going on right now offered by developers directly. If you check out the Special Offers section, you'll find many apps discounted down to 99 cents and many others at greatly reduced prices.

Our on-device CrackBerry App Store client has been a big hit with the BlackBerry community since the original beta was first introduced nearly a year ago. With a huge catalog of apps, games and themes and features like the Deal of the Day, Version tracking, the ability for developers to run promotions and offer apps at prices as low as 99 cents and more, there has never been a lack of reasons to have it installed on your BlackBerry.

Today the on-device app store client has been re-labeled and re-launched as the CrackBerry Superstore. Why Superstore you ask? Because the CrackBerry Superstore is essentially four stores in one. Within the Superstore there are dedicated "aisles" for apps, games, themes and accessories. With a single click, customers can enter their aisle of choice and see deal-of-the-day, bestsellers, specials, new products, browse by category, and search. This division is useful for both consumers and developers. For example, great themes no longer compete with apps and games for the customers attention. It also makes it easier for customers to discover and compare similar products while developers increase their opportunity for appearing in top-seller lists, which helps drive their sales. In addition to the new store design, the store itself runs smoother and faster than ever.
