Hedone Design let me know that they have just released a new premium BlackBerry theme that Windows Vista fans will definitely enjoy called VistaLike.

This is the real Win Vista Replica theme for BlackBerry. With sharp and clean graphics and additional buttons. Beside classical icons that you find on HomeScreen this theme provides a bit more. Signal and battery meters are buttons and the same goes for clock and date. That way you don’t have to leave HomeScreen to get to any of frequently used functions or programs.

Features and functions:

• Signal meter / Manage Connections button
• Battery meter / Options button
• 3 user Customizable Icons
• Today Section (Comes in five different options):
  • Zen
  • Today Preview
  • Today Plus
  • Today Calendar
  • Today Messages
• Clock – Date / Clock button
• 4 user Customizable Icons (bottom dock)
• AppScreen button

VistaLike is available for various BlackBerry models in different variations and comes with a free wallpaper expansion pack. Until November 6th you can get the VistaLike theme for $3.49 (50% off), after that it goes up to $6.99. For more info check out VistaLike in the store.

Elecite let me know that they’re having a big sale on two of their premium BlackBerry themes for two days only!

From October 20th through the 21st you can get the Analog and Focus themes for only $0.99 each by using the coupon code 2099 at checkout. Both of these themes are originally $6.99 each so this is a big discount you don’t want to miss out on.

Both themes are available for the BlackBerry Curve 8350i / 8500 series / 8900, Bold 9000, Storm and Tour series. For more info and screenshots check out the Analog and Focus themes at the Elecite website.

One of the main reasons everyone (including myself) wants OS 5.0 is for the threaded SMS feature. Considering that we won’t be seeing an OS 5.0 release for probably another few months, and it’s unclear whether or not threaded SMS will be available with the initial OS 5.0 release, we have to find alternative means of enabling threaded SMS on our BlackBerry devices.

One way you can enable threaded SMS is with Empower SMS Viewer by Ajani InfoTech Private Limited, which happens to be today’s deal-of-the-day!

Features:

• Customizable graphic backgrounds – use the one given, or choose your own!
• Separate Incoming and Outgoing SMS icons.
• Express better with real graphic Smileys.
• Turns HTML URLs into colorful web links.
• Quick compose using SMS Templates and SMS Smileys!
• Different colors for font, style and headers.
• Numerous customization option to configure it exactly the way you want.
• Integrates with Quick SMS and SMS Popup apps.
• Seamless Integration with native SMS application.
• Supported on ALL OS 4.2.1 and Above.

For today only (ending at 12AM CT) you can get this app for 50% off at $7.49, originally 14.99! So if you’re not happy with the way your BlackBerry does SMS and you don’t want to wait for OS 5.0, here’s a deal you should definitely take advantage of.

Check it out in the store and let me know what you think in the comments. A free trial is available if you want to test it out first.

EThemes is back with a new theme called HTC Hero for the BlackBerry Curve 8900, Bold and Tour available for FREE!

Hero to the left, Hero to the right everywhere you go there is a Hero around you. EThemes take on Hero UI. 5 user define icons, Calendar, Messages and SmsMms Preview Screens, Weather Slot Icon, QuickLaunch Icon, Media Icon and Network Icon, set it up right you would never have to leave the homescreen at all!!!!!

Weather App must be the first App on your App Screen

Apps 2-6 are the 5 user define icons on the dock

Calendar, Messages and Sms/Mms cannot be your 5 user define icons since they have there own screen. It would look odd since the today part will be covering the middle icons on the dock You wont be able to select the today part only preview the 4 entries
