CrackBerry Asks: Do you use/want FM radio on your BlackBerry?

Posted by Adam Zeis on 9 Nov 2012 2:36 pm
  Do you want/use FM radio on your BlackBerry?  Sitting through the last two weeks and examing my "hurricane gadgets" (yes, I still have no power), it got me thinking about which I use most and which have the most purpose. One of the things I've stood by is a little AM/FM radio I've had for years. There is a local station here in New Jersey that has kept us extremely well informed...

CrackBerry Asks: Which notification do you check first?

Posted by Adam Zeis on 26 Oct 2012 12:11 pm
  Which notification do you check first?  Today's question comes right out of the CrackBerry forums, and I'm really curious to see just how it pans out. Hypothetical situation (well, maybe not for some of you). You get notifications for multiple things at the same time - SMS, BBM, voicemail, Facebook, Twitter and email ... which do you check first? If you're like me you most certainly have...

CrackBerry Asks: Do you let your kids play with your phone or tablet?

Posted by Adam Zeis on 24 Oct 2012 2:47 pm
Do you let your kids use your phone or tablet? My daughter is nearing five months now, and on an endless fit of screaming/crying over the weekend, I finally got her quiet with a video on my phone. On the same car trip, I didn't hear a peep from my son who found plenty of games and movies on my PlayBook to keep him occupied.  Way back when we didn't have the luxury insane amounts of...

CrackBerry Asks: How much internal storage is enough?

Posted by Adam Zeis on 15 Oct 2012 1:00 pm
  How much internal storage is enough?  The BlackBerry PlayBook was really the first time we saw a BlackBerry model with different storage sizes. Before that, the internal storage was the same for a device series and only with the addition of a memory card could memory be added. With BlackBerry 10 however, there is a chance we'll see different internal storage sizes like the PlayBook - 16GB...

Do you want Angry Birds Star Wars on BlackBerry 10?

Posted by Adam Zeis on 9 Oct 2012 2:53 pm
  How important is it to have Angry Birds on BlackBerry 10 at launch? Yesterday Rovio once again dropped a huge announcement. Angry Birds Star Wars will be hitting the world in about a months time on November 8th, destined to take over phones and tablets everywhere. While there was the obvious note of iOS and Android, there was nothing said about the BlackBerry PlayBook. We know that it...

CrackBerry Asks: Do you keep the box when you get a new device?

Posted by Adam Zeis on 13 Sep 2012 1:04 pm
  Do you keep the box when you get a new device?  I came across this thread in the CrackBerry forums the other day, and I chuckled a bit when thinking about the pile of BlackBerry boxes I have in my basement. I am a box hoarder of sorts - never finding a good enough reason to pitch my old boxes, "justi in case". From the looks of the results there I'm not alone either. I don't know exactly...

CrackBerry Asks: How long is good battery life?

Posted by Adam Zeis on 10 Sep 2012 1:41 pm
  How long is good battery life?  We've been on quite a bit about battery life lately in the upcoming BlackBerry 10 devices. We've heard a bit about what type of battery they have and also know they'll be removeable. What we don't know yet however it just how much battery life the new devices will pump out. Good battery life is on top of the must-have list for most users, so it's a big...

CrackBerry Asks: Would you switch carriers for a phone?

Posted by Adam Zeis on 5 Sep 2012 3:04 pm
  Would you switch carriers for a phone?  In the past BlackBerry devices have been spread out across various carriers. Some GSM carriers had models that others didn't, and most times the CDMA carriers had different models all together. With BlackBerry 10 we know (for now at least) that there will be just two different models at launch - a full touchscreen device and one with a physical...

The vote is in: QWERTY input still reigns supreme

Posted by Adam Zeis on 15 Aug 2012 10:11 am
We know that BlackBerry users love their QWERTY keyboards -- it's one of the main reasons we stand by our faithful BlackBerry and are able to crank out quick emails and messages all day long. At the announcement of BlackBerry 10 we were left wondering if we'd ever see a full-QWERTY BlackBerry again, however it wasn't too long before Thorsten Heins cleared it up and told us not to worry. So the...

CrackBerry Asks: Is there any reason you wouldn't want BlackBerry 10 devices to use a micro SIM?

Posted by James Richardson on 8 Aug 2012 2:38 pm
  Is there any reason you wouldn't want RIM to use micro SIM for BlackBerry 10?  Judging by a couple of 'sources' we have, it would appear that RIM will be going down the micro SIM route with Blackberry 10. I have been thinking about a poll on this subject for some time now and was initially going to angle it from a 'should RIM use micro SIM?' perspective. We already know that the 4G LTE...
