A few months ago we started a BlackBerry Cool group on LinkedIn, to connect BlackBerry power users with colleagues in the wireless industry. We then promptly forgot about it. Despite our total disregard, however, the BlackBerry Cool LinkedIn Group has slowly gained a larger membership, passing the 500 user milestone earlier this week.
We thought it was time to remind everyone about the group and to promise some interesting things to come in the near future, thanks to new LinkedIn features. Let’s fill ‘er up to 1000!

We’ve just recently shuffled our store around and updated the graphics. Exhausted after a marginal amount of work, we wiped our brows and collectively thought, “hell, this calls for celebration”, even if it really didn’t. Luckily, our readers get to reap the rewards of our overenthusiasm, as all software in the store will be 20% off until the end of October. Call it a Hallowe’en thing, call it a reckless decision by bloggers on the edge, call it a sign of the Second Coming, call it whatever you want - it’s a sale, and odds are there’s something in that store that you wanna get your mitts on.

You might have noticed a few issues over the last day or two here at BBCool. Our readership has grown significantly and managed to exceed our server capacity before we had a chance to find something a little more our size. After some frantic shuffling, we’ve miraculously survived and found a new home for BBCool where she’s settling in nicely. Thanks a ton for your patience and continued patronage, guys. It’s actually kind of bittersweet having your site crash because so many people wanna check it out.
Since the site reskin, we lost a few of our old features, such as our ever-popular Wallpaper Generator. Well, we’ve got it back, along with a few new pages. If you’re a BlackBerry professional (or you’re looking for BlackBerry professionals), be sure to check out our revamped
