Elecite has released Eerie, a new theme for the BlackBerry Curve 8300 series, 8800 series, Curve 8900, Bold 9000  and Storm 9500 series, all on OS 4.5 or higher.

It’s time to take your precious BlackBerry to a whole new level of grunge. Eerie is an absolute design for those that are well, hardcore.

Each individual graphic has been optimized for maximum performance and the most intense looks. The team at elecite spent a little extra time on this one to make sure you absolutely love it and I gotta say it looks incredible on the phone! However, it doesn’t end there! You’ll enjoy a dual screen experience with optional wallpapers and 4-5 icons, a grand total of 8-10 customizable icons.

Just in case, the Dual-Screen feature is not available for the Curve 8300 and 8800 series versions due to software limitations.

* UPDATE I’ve created the dedicated page. It can be viewed at blackberryrocks.com/bitly-links *

I’ve been using bit.ly for quite some time, for everything I do on the web. Bit.ly is, in my opinion, the best URL shortening site. Not to mention that there is a free application for BlackBerry called bit.lify, which I’m hoping will be updated with more features in the future.

Today I decided to go crazy with bit.ly and bit.lified all the good stuff here on BlackBerry Rocks! You will now be able to save shorter links instead of the long ones, and they are very easy to remember.

Here are some examples:

• How To: Backup And Restore Your BlackBerry -> bit.ly/backuprest
• Pearl 8100 Series Themes & Wallpapers -> bit.ly/8100themes
• Curve 8900 Apps & Games -> bit.ly/8900apps
• Latest BlackBerry Operating Systems -> bit.ly/bbOS

All you have to do is replace the series number with your series number. I’ve put together a list of all the available bit.ly links for my site after the jump.

I will also be making a page dedicated to listing all my bit.lified links soon. Let me know what you think!
