BlackBerry Bold 9900 Unboxing

Here’s a quick unedited unboxing of the BlackBerry Bold 9900 by AT&T.  It’s rough, I didn’t get a chance to edit it but enjoy my Spielberg level video. I have to say, I know a lot of people are down on BlackBerry these days but this is a great device.  It’s slick, responsive and incredible [...]

New BlackBerry’s Running OS 7

              In the recent weeks I remembered why I love using a BlackBerry so much, it’s reliable to a fault.  I was in San Diego for CTIA and was having a really hard time not having a reliable phone with me in terms of battery life.  My iPhone is [...]

BlackBerry Bold 9780 Review

    This blog post is quite late but none the less still appropriate.  I’ve had the BlackBerry 9780 for a few months now and want to share my thoughts on it.  This isn’t going to be a traditional review like most others, I’m just going to tell you what I like and dislike about [...]

New Tru Supremo Steve Robertson

I only recently heard the news that Steve Robertson is taking over as the new Tru CEO.  I have a long history with TruPhone as they used to be known and want to take a few words to let people know who might be reading about them for the first time who and what they are. [...]

Can The BlackBerry Gmail Mobile App Run At Push Speeds?

So I’m a huge BlackBerry fan.  I have been for a while now and used a BlackBerry as my primary device until my Nexus One got Gingerbread.  In that time I’ve switched from AT&T to T-Mobile and now back to AT&T.  The bottom line is I don’t have a BB plan on my account any [...]

Truphone Now Supports BlackBerry

I’ve been writing about Truphone since 2007 and I suspect using it even longer.  I was called the biggest Truphone fan by Ewan MacLeod back in 2007 or 2008.  I wish I could remember when they launched but boy oh boy was it amazing back then. Fast forward 5 years (I’m guessing) and you know [...]

MWC ’11 The Device To Have Had

As I fly home from a long week of meetings, parties and the over abundance of mobile phones I think I’ve seen the future. I imagine this is the same all over the world and in many industries and that it will trickle down into the general population. Every year I see a trend and [...]

BlackBerry UMA Works Without The T-Mobile Network

So I’m still an uber newb to this conservative new world of BlackBerry.  But I learned something tonight that is very exciting to me.  It makes the BB an even more appealing device and a money saver for me and anybody who doesn’t want to pay for roaming.  I am on T-Mobile in the US [...]

RIM’s BlackBerry Is Doing “It” Right

I’ve been noticing for many months now, maybe even years that BlackBerrys are everywhere.  I used to think they were intentionally going after the young crowd like the teens and early 20′s but now I know they are.  I’ve been seeing kids, yes 12 year olds with BlackBerrys.  I’ve also been seeing many many more 20 [...]

Skype Is Now Giving Nimbuzz The Boot

Oh great, Skype is flexing it’s little pasty arm again.  After this summers ordeal with Skype banning Fring for “breach of its API terms” it’s doing the same again with Nimbuzz now.  It was inevitable but still disappointing.  Skype is heading toward an IPO so it seems as if it’s tying up any loose ends but truth [...]
