Blackberry Emphaty The Future SmartPhone
Dec 20th
BlackBerry design which we know is quite typical. Wide-screen, trackpad or trackball navigation features, and the average comes with a Qwerty keypad. But, the concept of this one probably will make you surprised and not previously presumed.
The concept of a BlackBerry Empathy that carried Kiki Tang and Daniel Yoon from Art Center College of Design is much different from the concept design of the BlackBerry is currently available. More >
BlackBerry Tablet Playbook Review
Dec 10th
Today at Research In Motion’s annual BlackBerry Developer Conference, CEO Mike Lazaridisannounced the company’s new tablet — the PlayBook. The tablet will utilize an OS created by therecently acquired QNX (just as we’d heard previous to the announcement) called the BlackBerry Tablet OS which will offer full OpenGL and POSIX support alongside web standards such as HTML5 (which is all tied into RIM’s new WebWorks SDK).
Lazaridis was joined on stage by the company’s founder, Dan Dodge, who said that “QNX is going to enable things that you have never seen before,” and added that the PlayBook would be “an incredible gaming platform for publishers and the players.” RIM also touted the PlayBook’s ability to handle Flash content via Flash 10.1, as well as Adobe AIR apps.

BlackBerry Curve Review
Apr 20th
TheBlackBerry Curve 8520 shows that the future of the BlackBerry is here… kind of.
By far the stand-out feature of the Curve 8520 is its new optical trackpad, which replaces the trackball for navigation –and it rocks.
In a confusing move though, the 8520 is the third Curve available on T-Mobile, in addition to the original and the 8900, which was released early this year.
The 8250 has several elements that depart from traditional BlackBerrys, beyond just the trackpad. Features such as dedicated media keys across the top of the device, a smaller LED indicator, updated look for the call and end-call keys, and new hidden’ convenience keys on the side of the phone all work together to position the 8250 to expand its reach to younger market segments that other BlackBerrys have failed to capture.
Other areas such as the screen and lack of 3G (though it does have Wi-Fi) indicate that RIM and T-Mobile weren’t willing to pull out all the stops for this one. More >
BlackBerry Storm 2 Review
Mar 30th
With itslarge and crisp touchscreen, 3.2 megapixel camera, sleek form factor, and a host of connectivity options, the BlackBerry Storm2 should be great. It packs upgraded performance, a tweaked user interface, enhanced operating system, and overall really works to make up for its previous generation’s shortcomings. It even includes Wi-Fi, a first for Verizon-branded Storms.
Despite all of this, the end product is somehow lacking. The Storm2 makes up for its predecessor’s shortcomings, but given the competition of large, touchscreen-based smartphones on Verizon, and the hordes of apps available for its prime target competitor, it’s hard to give this BlackBerry a solid recommendation.
DESIGN & BUILD
It’s hard to tell the Storm2 apart from its predecessor at first glance, but there are a few cosmetic changes. The chrome trim on the edges is subdued, and the function keys (Send, End, Menu, Escape) are now integrated as a part of the screen. The side buttons are a matte black and the headphone jack is now flush against the side of the device. Finally the top rocker button has a slight makeover where the left rocker key will first lock the phone, and then shut it down if depressed further. Other than these subtleties, the two can very easily be mistaken for one another.
The device is still a touch skinnier, thinner, and arguably better looking than the BlackBerry Bold, and sports a sleek overall design. More >
