SearchCalendar for BlackBerry

Universal search is one of the OS 6 features that I absolutely love. Unfortunately, I'm using a Bold 9700 with OS 5 and refuse to give it up or upgrade the OS. With that said, my one pet peeve is that the Calendar doesn't offer the same search option as OS 6. Since I have numerous appointments, reminders, anniversaries, recurring events, and birthdays, having an integrated search option is better than the method I'm currently using which is go to date, different views, or employing the native search feature just to find that one elusive entry. For those of you who still use OS 5 or just want to add options to OS 6 there is a way, by installing SearchCalendar -The Best Calendar Search (V 1.1.3).

RemindMe

If you're like most people, there has been a time in your life when you forgot someone's birthday or anniversary, or an important appointment. Or maybe you've been on the other side and someone forgot to attend an event you had organized. Wouldn't it be nice if there was an easy way to remember these occasions, and to help others remember them too? Look no further, because QuiteSimple has developed an application that will solve those problems.

RemindMe is an all-in-one reminder and notifier that is tightly integrated with your BlackBerry Calendar, Contacts and Maps. When you create a new event in RemindMe you have the option to have an appointment automatically added to your calendar along with a reminder. All you have to do is define the name of the event, when it will happen, who will participate, and specify its location. Then you can set the reminder note and choose to send automatic email notification to all participants on the date of the event. When it is time, the reminder email is sent to the other participants' email addresses as listed in your Contacts. Notification will include the name and date of the event, reminder note (as specified), location and links to BB Maps and Google maps to show the location. The icon for RemindMe even changes as the date of the event nears, and changes again on the day of the event.

RemindMe was chosen as a Regional Selection in the BlackBerry Super App Challenge 2010 in late September. Competition is fierce in this challenge, so to make it even this far says a lot about any app, and you're really going to want to see what RemindMe has to offer you.

Contest: QuiteSimple has given us 25 licenses for RemindMe to pass on to you guys. To enter, leave your comment below. One comment per person as multiple entries won't count. Winners will be chosen randomly at Midnight PST this Sunday. Good luck!

smartbdocs

Most BlackBerry users have the Docs2Go suite installed on their devices, and many of us use it on a regular basis to handle files in an Office format. One huge limitation of that particular softwarek, however, is the fact that the free version included does not allow you to create new documents. Paying for the premium version can be tough to swallow if all you want to do is add the ability to create a blank Word document, and wiuth the addition of this app, you no longer have to. Extremely simple to use, simply launch the app, click the button for the document you wish to create, and name the file. A new document is saved to your media card, which you can then open and edit with Docs2Go. SmartBDocs is the perfect companion to that software, and costs a fraction of the upgrade fee you would pay otherwise. Available in the CB store for only $.99, you will be hard pressed to find a reason NOT to get this.

Contest: We have 100 copies of SmartBDocs to give away! Just leave a comment on this post to enter. Contest ends this Sunday at Midnight PST. Please only leave one comment, multiple entries wont count.

BeHoroscope

BeHoroscope by QuiteSimple brings your daily horoscope to your BlackBerry smartphone. After choosing your zodiac sign, you are now able to view the days (or any days) horoscope. It uses a ranking system, giving 1-5 stars for such categories as work, finance, love, health, and of course they could not leave out the BlackBerry category. The app will also display your current zodiac sign on the BeHoroscope icon. Its a very simple application, sure to please those of you who love your daily horoscopes (my Twitter timeline is full of you :) ).  The app is available for all BlackBerry devices running OS 4.2.1 and up, and nicely priced at $0.99.
