Buy Domains directly on your BlackBerry
» ‎ BlackBerryInsight

(PRWEB) September 19, 2007 — Network Solutions has developed a new application that allows customers to search for and buy a domain name, or conduct a WHOIS database search, directly from their iPhone, Treo™, Blackberry®, or other Web-enabled mobile devices.

This new mobile application, which allows customers to buy a domain with just one click, can detect whether a customer is visiting the Network Solutions site from an iPhone or other mobile-enabled device, and quickly presents a home page that can be easily viewed. If a customer is using an iPhone, this new application will present an interface specifically designed for their phone that leverages the iPhone’s high resolution touch screen.

Via eMediaWire™

Basically, it is just a small website that is optimized for mobile browser like the BlackBerry® browser. If you use Opera Mini you can order domains at every company like godaddy.com.

Rumor Smashed: GPS on BlackBerry 8820 NOT locked!
» ‎ The Boy Genius Report

The Internet was buzzing with a story that the upcoming AT&T BlackBerry 8820 would limit the built-in GPS functionality to only TeleNav. This meant that other GPS programs would not function. A couple examples would be BlackBerry Maps, or Google Maps. We recently spoke with TeleNav directly to try and find out the story. They didn’t have to much to say, because at the end of the day, they are not involved in those types of carrier matters, which is understandable. We have, however, received confirmation from an AT&T spokesperson who told us, "the GPS feature has not been locked on the BlackBerry 8820." Whether or not this ever took place and was undone (we believe this was bogus from the beginning) is irrelevant at this point. BlackBerry 8820 hopefuls, rest assured you’ll be equals to your fellow BlackBerry 8800 friends, and soon to be BlackBerry 8310 friends.

Review: Nokia BH-800 Bluetooth Headset
» ‎ CrackBerry.com blogs

Fashionable Doesn’t Mean Poor Quality…
A big fan and long-time user of the Nokia BH-700 Bluetooth Headset, I was excited to get my hands on the Nokia BH-800 and put it to the test. A high-end headset (MSRP: $179.95) with one of the best battery life’s around, the BH-800 weighs in at only 9g, which is light enough for Nokia to claim the use of the included ear loop to be “optional”. Looking at the specs of the BH-800, it’s clear the Finnish company has created a strong competitor to some of the other leading headsets on the market and from previous experience with Nokia Bluetooth headsets I know their claims aren’t hyped.

AT&T to start selling BlackBerry 8820 GPS WiFi Phone for $299
» ‎ IntoMobile » RIM
It looks like Research In Motion’s GPS and WiFi-toting BlackBerry 8820 is finally making it’s debut on AT&T’s nationwide network (well, Amazon’s offering notwithstanding) - a bit behind our expected schedule. With a $299 price-tag, AT&T will begin offering users the chance to get in on the GPS and WiFi goodness that is RIM’s BlackBery 8820.

Sorry, BlackBerry 8800 owners, but with today’s announcement, your RIM handheld is now something us industry-folk like to call “obsolete.” It’s a shame, we know - but that’s how it goes with mobile phones. One day you’re on top of the world, the next your last week’s news.

The BlackBerry 8820 will be rocking the 8800’s business-centric camera-less exterior, EDGE, PTT (push-to-talk) functionality, microSD card slot, WiFi a/b/g, and of course the integrated GPS module. The question remains, will AT&T be crippling the GPS functionality on the 8820?

Update: the BlackBerry 8820 will go on sale tommorrow.

FAQ: How To Wipe All Information From Your BlackBerry
» ‎ BerryReview.com
I get this question often from users asking how to remove all of their personal information from their BlackBerry. This sometimes needs to be done for a variety of situations. For example, you may want to sell your berry on eBay or you may want to give it to a friend or better yet you may just want to donate it. Keep in mind this wipe does not remove programs and does not touch any information stored on your memory cards. Note: If you have content protection enabled on your BlackBerry this can take quite awhile (almost an hour). I am not sure how the wipe will effect memory cards that have been encrypted using your BlackBerry but I will get back to you on that.

To wipe your BlackBerry you have to follow the simple instructions laid down in this BlackBerry knowledgebase article:
1. From the Home screen on your BlackBerry smartphone, go to Options > Security Options > General Settings.
2. Click on the trackwheel or the Menu button on newer devices.
3. Select Wipe Handheld from the menu.
4. Click Continue.
5. Type blackberry, and then press the Enter key.

Matthew has promised to make Today, Zen, and Icon versions of this theme for the Pearl, Curve, and 8800 series. He has not posted any release dates for these new versions but he seems to be working hard on them. I will be keeping an eye out for the new versions and will let you know when they come out.

AT&T’s BlackBerry 8820 ready to roll
» ‎ BlackBerry Cool

AT&T’s BlackBerry 8820 has been officially announced today, packing both GPS and Wi-Fi under the hood and hitting store shelves tomorrow. The 8820 will also be coming bundled with AT&T’s Mobile Music, which gives access to XM Satellite Radio, among other music services. You’ll have to fork over $299.99 on a two-year contract for this beauty. This wasn’t exactly the soft launch we were thinking of, but quietly getting the devices into stores for a nearly day-of announcement is a pretty good way of building up hype. After all, which announcement gets you more excited: “It’s coming next week”, or “It’s coming tomorrow”?

New BlackBerry 8820 From AT&T Hits The ‘Hot Spot’ With Wi-Fi

New Global Handset Complements and Extends AT&T’s Industry-Leading International Wireless Reach With Both Cellular and 802.11 Features

San Antonio, TX and Waterloo, ON - Wi-Fi® is coming to AT&T’s BlackBerry® handset customers. AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) and Research In Motion (RIM) (Nasdaq: RIMM; TSX: RIM) have announced that the first cellular and Wi-Fi BlackBerry handset — the BlackBerry 8820 — will be available beginning Sept. 20 through the nation’s largest wireless provider.

The global Wi-Fi capabilities of the BlackBerry 8820 from AT&T complement AT&T’s industry-best domestic and international wide area wireless data coverage. AT&T enterprise customers can use the BlackBerry 8820 with their corporate campus Wi-Fi networks for additional data coverage. Individual customers can use it in their homes and, for an additional charge, at thousands of Wi-Fi locations* throughout the U.S., including any of the 10,000 AT&T-owned or branded hot spot locations in the U.S. Users can also take advantage of tens of thousands of hot spots around the globe through such services as AT&T Wi-Fi roaming.

AT&T is the leading provider of BlackBerry services worldwide and boasts the broadest domestic and international coverage area for wireless data services of any U.S. carrier. The BlackBerry 8820 is powered by AT&T’s nationwide** EDGE network, the largest high speed national wireless data network in the U.S., with availability in more than 13,000 cities and towns and along some 40,000 miles of major highways. The quadband BlackBerry 8820 from AT&T keeps users who are abroad connected with wireless e-mail, Internet access and other mobile applications through data services in more countries — more than 135 — than any other U.S. carrier. Customers can also use the BlackBerry 8820 to make or receive wireless phone calls in more than 190 countries.

“The new BlackBerry 8820 builds on AT&T’s leading domestic and international coverage footprint by giving customers the ability to link with their company’s wireless campus network or access e-mail and browse the Web at Wi-Fi hot spots even in the few countries in which we do not have data roaming agreements,” said Jeff Bradley, senior vice president- Marketing and Operations for AT&T’s wireless unit. “That makes the BlackBerry 8820 from AT&T an exceptional world phone for global use by business customers and individuals alike.”

“The BlackBerry 8820 builds upon the sleek and performance-driven BlackBerry 8800 that has been embraced by business professionals around the world,” said Mike Lazaridis, president and co-CEO at RIM. “This powerful new model has been eagerly anticipated by the market, and we are very pleased to be working with AT&T to launch the first cellular and Wi-Fi BlackBerry handset for customers in the U.S.”

The BlackBerry 8820 provides support for 802.11a, b and g with enterprise security features, extending the BlackBerry platform to business customers at public hot spots and on wireless local area networks. Customers can use a BlackBerry 8820 to link to their enterprise through home Wi-Fi networks. They also will be able to access broadband services, such as the nation’s leading service from AT&T — AT&T Yahoo! High Speed Internet.

The BlackBerry 8820 adds Wi-Fi capabilities to its industry-leading set of features, which includes extensive call management and premium phone features, built-in Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) — with support for such solutions as TeleNav GPS Navigator™ and TeleNav Track™ — AT&T’s Push-to-Talk service, Bluetooth® 2.0, built-in media player and a microSD expandable memory slot for music, photo and video storage.

The BlackBerry 8820 also supports AT&T Mobile Music, an integrated, on-the-go music experience that delivers “your music, your way” by providing simple access to a robust collection of music content, including access to online subscription music content from eMusic, XM Satellite Radio and more.

In addition, the BlackBerry 8820 comes with a full QWERTY keyboard, an intuitive trackball navigation system and a large, bright landscape (320 x 240) display. Customers have a vivid and easy-to-use interface for the many popular capabilities of the BlackBerry solution, including mobile access to corporate and personal e-mail, text messages, Web browsing, an organizer, multimedia and corporate data applications.

Even though AT&T might be paying homage to Cingular with a change to orange for their logo, they certainly don’t want anything more to do with the Cingular name. BlackBerry e-mail addresses under the mycingular.blackberry.net domain are about to be kindly booted over to att.blackeberry.net, according to Russ. The switches will be happening throughout October and November, although anything from your old Cingular e-mail will be forwarded to the AT&T one up until March 1st.

BrokeIt sounds like they’re getting some hints on T-Mobile’s BlackBerry 8320 pricing, and as usual enterprise customers are getting first dibs.

Duplicate Gmail Solution

Problem

A Gmail webmail account, for example <name>@gmail.com, is integrated with the BlackBerry Internet Service account. When sending an email message from the BlackBerry smartphone using the Gmail service book (<name>@gmail.com) or from the Gmail webmail account web site, a copy of the sent email message arrives on the BlackBerry smartphone as a new email message.

Want To Make Your BlackBerry Pearl Look Like An iPhone?
» ‎ RIMarkable

Do you desire to make your BlackBerry Pearl look like an iPhone? Well, your’re in luck… RogersMJ.com has released a free BlackBerry theme named bPhone that should do the trick.

Inspired by the iPhone, bPhone for BlackBerry features icons straight from the iPhone in addition to custom-made icons that fit into the iPhone theme. The top banner is dark glass, the signal and battery indicators were created from scratch to mimic the iPhone’s, the “busy” indicator is the Mac OS X beachball, and there is liberal use of gray and blue (Mac and iPhone’s primary interface colors) throughout the theme.

You can download a copy of bPhone here…

WorldMate Live Goes Alpha
» ‎ BlackBerry Edge

If you have read some of our posts on WorldMate Live, the software has just gone alpha. The developers are offering two versions, one a stripped down version for free and the gold addition for $99.00 per year. I’ve opted for the gold addition since I travel frequently and will make use of the additional features being offered.

What I do find impressive with their offering is that the itinerary portion of the software, the part that frequent travelers will use along with the weather and currency conversions is part of the free package. So if the price is a little steep but you still want something that can keep track of your travels then give the stripped down version a try.

The gold addition includes alerts being communicated to you when you have flight delays, something that most travelers experience and if it prevents me from making an extra trip out of the lounge than it will be worth the annual price. Hopefully we will see additional items added to it as it gains popularity.

Matthew Rogers of RogersMJ.com has released an update to his free iPhone theme for the BlackBerry Pearl appropriately called the bPhone. The theme now comes in both Zen and the basic Icon version.
