Here’s a great video put together by The BlackBerry Guy. In it he does a quick comparison between the Curve 8520, Curve 8900, Bold 9000, Storm 9530, Tour 9630 and the Curve 8330.

The video is mostly focused on the differences between each BlackBerry model’s form factor, but he does go over a few other tidbits. Check it out and let me know what you think in the comments.

Posted by Mauricio on Aug 6, 2009 at 9:58 AM | Comments

pandora blackberry now playing Pandora For BlackBerry Updated To v1.1.1   Fixes Network Related Issues

Pandora for BlackBerry has been updated to version 1.1.1 with a few bug fixes:

  • Fixed HTTP 502 issue (and other networking-related issues such as the “connection closed” problem on the 8350i)
  • Fixed volume going to “full” after an audio system alert (phone, email, IM) on Storm
  • For listeners who use the low end of the volume scale, the jump from 3 bars to 4 bars isn’t as jarring anymore

Pandora will work on the BlackBerry Pearl 8100 series, Pearl Flip 8200 series, Curve 8300 and 8900 series, 8800 series, Bold 9000, Storm 9530 and the Tour 9630.

If you missed out on the BlackBerry Messenger 5.0 download links from last week…you’re in luck! Here are some fresh links for both ZIP and OTA downloads.

THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW

It is very important that you make a backup before attempting to install BBM 5.0!

Here are the download links:

  • Desktop Download:
    • BBM 5.0 – Desktop Installer .ZIP (For All OS’s)
  • OTA Downloads:
    • BBM 5.0 (For 4.7/Storm) – English Only Only
    • BBM 5.0 (For 4.7.1/Tour) – English Only
    • BBM 5.0 (For 4.5/Curve) – English Only

The 4.5/Curve version also appears to work for the Pearl 8100 and 8800 series, so if you own one of these BlackBerry devices and want to try BBM 5.0 make sure this is the one you download and not any other version. It is also important to remember that you need a minimum OS of 4.5.0.131, but having the latest OS definitely helps. You can find the latest OS for your Blackberry here.
