It’s weird that I should get this tip today because I had tweeted asking suggestions about what Bluetooth headset I should try out, meanwhile this tip is sitting in my inbox!
Keep in mind that the price is $9.99 AFTER THE REBATE. That means you have to pay the $29.99 and shipping up front, and then send in the rebate form to get your $20 back.

My buddy Fabian has created another fun app for the BlackBerry Storm called Whippoh.
From the description:
This is the first application that allows you to simulate a Whip with your BlackBerry. Hold the BlackBerry in your hand and perform the whip-movement, after some practise the device plays the whip sound when you do the correct movement.
You can set the sensibility at when the whipping sound should be played. Alternatively you can press one of the side buttons to play the whip sound.
This application is really fun when you want someone to do something for you – you simply follow your question with the whip sound – look at his/her face!
Remember to set permissions to allow in order to use this application and to read the Help-Menu in the application.
Update to v1.1:
- Renamed to Whippoh
- OS 4.7.0.75 sound bug fixed
- Works on every Storm-OS now
Features:
Fun and Addicting
Free Trial
Easy to use
Real simulation
Minimum Requirements:
BlackBerry Storm
Price: $1.90 today only, $2.99 after – Trial available
I would really like to know when someone would use this app. All funny, previous stories where you would have used this app are welcome too.

A new app by Tafasa became available over the weekend for the BlackBerry Storm called PatternLock.
From the description:
PatternLock offers a new and fun way for you to lock your BlackBerry Storm. The lock screen shows 9 dots in a 3×3 grid. Before using PatternLock, you define what your lock pattern will be. The next time you see the lock screen, you trace your finger in the pattern you defined before and your device will unlock. Any other pattern and in any other order will not unlock the device. The application allows you to either use the default wallpaper or to pick a different background image stored on your device. You can even set it to autolock the device whenever you turn it on. You can also set it to autolock when the device is inactive for a time period of your choosing.
Please note that this will not replace the BlackBerry lock functionality when pressing the lock button. It is recommended you assign this application to a convenience key for easy access, or you can rely on the autolocking system. An icon is also available so that you can easily lock from the homescreen.
If you intend to use the autolock feature, you should disable the built in BlackBerry automatic password lock as it will still lock your device (even if automatic PatternLock is enabled). If you require maximum security for your device, you should use the built in BlackBerry password lock.
Features:
Autolock on startup and when device is inactive
Choose your own unlock pattern
Choose your own background image
Simple design that seamlessly fits in with the BlackBerry Storm interface
A fun and easy way to secure your device
Minimum Requirements:
BlackBerry Storm (9500 or 9530)
Price: $0.99 until April 20, 2009 (normally $2.99)
Seems like a pretty solid security app. There doesn’t seem to be a free trial available for PatternLock, but for what it does I’m sure plenty of you wouldn’t mind spending the $0.99 for it.
Don’t forget, the special $0.99 price ends April 20, 2009. After that it will be $2.99!
