Step away from the hype: 5 ways where iPhone 3G still lags enterprise-wise
Digg this. Add to del.icio.us. Bookmark in Technorati. Stumble this. Post to Facebook. Send to a friend. Jul 23, 2008 - by hayden
The iPhone 3G may have a lock on the one of the Sexiest Gadgets for 2008, but in the frumpy and boring world of things that matter to enterprise IT managers, it's no pinup.

Despite Apple Inc.'s improvements upon the previous iPhone, primarily through its licensing of Microsoft Corp.'s ActiveSync technology, the 3G and its iPhone 2.0 software remain less competent and less tested than its BlackBerry and Windows Mobile counterparts

Digg this. Add to del.icio.us. Bookmark in Technorati. Stumble this. Post to Facebook. Send to a friend. Jul 23, 2008 - by hayden
Yougetitback.com today announced the North American debut of its service to help protect, recover and replace mobile devices from theft and loss. Yougetitback protects and helps recover mobile devices--such as phones, PDAs, cameras, iPods and laptops--while preserving the sensitive information they may contain. The company's premium service will even replace the device, if it is not recovered.

"People carry a great deal of sensitive data in their mobile phones, PDAs and laptops, such as contacts, credit card numbers, banking details and sensitive business information--not to mention personal mementos like photos of their loved ones," said Yougetitback.com CEO Frank Hannigan.

"Most people may not give a second thought to the valuable personal information stored in their devices--until they are misplaced,... [Read More]

Hardware Review: Solar Charger for BlackBerry Wireless Handheld
Digg this. Add to del.icio.us. Bookmark in Technorati. Stumble this. Post to Facebook. Send to a friend. Jul 23, 2008 - by funkym


I found the greatest BlackBerry gadget ever! (Besides my Bluetooth GPS receiver, of course)

I just got the chance to check out one of those solar chargers for the BlackBerry. All in all: it is very easy to use and it just works!

With just 76 gram it is a very lightweight device and fits into every pocket. I think it is very useful when you are outdoors and don’t have the chance to charge your BlackBerry (or Bluetooth GPS receiver with which it is compatible as well). For example, when you go hiking or doing any outdoor activity that requires your BlackBerry to work. One more cool thing is the fact that this Solar Charger comes with an internal battery which is constantly charged even if there is no device connected to it. This means, you got an internal extra “buffer battery” which enables you to... [Read More]

Lots of NEW Plazmic CDK 4.5 BlackBerry 88xx, 83xx & 81xx themes!
Digg this. Add to del.icio.us. Bookmark in Technorati. Stumble this. Post to Facebook. Send to a friend. Jul 22, 2008 - by cherrichiodo
I can remember the last update to the CDK, one year ago exactly. We started to see some varieties of the new CDK towards the end of 2007 and more and more began to pop up throughout this year. Well, we don't have to wait any longer

The folks over at Plazmic released their 4.5 CDK last Friday and the theme building began! Lots of busy theme builders this past weekend and tons of new themes have been posted.

** NOTE ** These themes will ONLY work on Blackberry devices running 4.5 OS

Review: Spotjots on Blackberry - 5 Stars
Digg this. Add to del.icio.us. Bookmark in Technorati. Stumble this. Post to Facebook. Send to a friend. Jul 22, 2008 - by mcm180
Verdict: Great mobile blogging app, which allows for adding pictures, videos, voicenotes, music, geo-tagging (GPS or address entry) about where you are, what your doing, all from your blackberry.

Pros: This delivers what it promises, unlike other mobile-blogging sites/apps, this truly allows you to blog about an activity, event, restaurant, service, or anything your heart desires. The app allows you to add all sorts of media, to use your GPS or enter an address, and you can publish to other sites like twitter, facebook or a normal blog like typepad. They even have a widget you can embed on your websites (ie Myspace).

Cons: If you add media, the feed to twitter translates it using tinyurl.com (which is probably better anyways, so it's not really a con. hehehe)

Digg this. Add to del.icio.us. Bookmark in Technorati. Stumble this. Post to Facebook. Send to a friend. Jul 21, 2008 - by hayden
RIM patched a critical bug in its BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) that would allow hackers to break into company networks by tricking users of the popular smart phone into opening rigged PDFs.

The fix, which was delivered in several separate updates to BES, addressed a security vulnerability in the PDF distiller component of the BlackBerry Attachment Service, which runs on the BES.
