If you frequent the BBRocks! Store you may have noticed a new module that displays the Deal of the Day for that day. This is a new feature that will show a new deal on a bestseller every day!

The first ten days of this new feature will include 10 outstanding products.  You will be able to buy a great app or theme – that day’s designated deal – at a 50% discount from either the new Desktop module or through the existing On Device App Store module.

The first set of Deal of the Day offers will include games and entertainment apps, themes, apps for improving personal productivity and performance enhancers for the BlackBerry. Something for everyone!

Deal of the Day: Day 1

HD FutureX by Hedone Design, is an innovative theme that tackles how to get more than 10 buttons on the home screen while still being wallpaper friendly. At first glance, you’ll see wallpaper displaying a blue sky and wheat-colored field.  Hidden in the lower part of the screen are three boxes that each contain a hidden dock holding customizable icons.  Hedone describes these as “15 in 3″ buttons.  All of you need to know that this “natureful” theme is also quite functional and should be a welcome addition to any BlackBerry.

The FutureX theme is normally priced at $6.99. Deal of Day price is just $3.49!

Head on over to the BBRocks! Store to check it out. Hope you enjoy getting great deals on great software .

Viigo has partnered up with Treedia Labs to bring tens of thousands of Podcast.com audio podcasts to BlackBerry users!

“Treedia Labs is excited to be adding Viigo as a way for our mobile device audience to access our aggregated podcast content,” said, Duncan Perry, CEO of Treedia Labs. “Viigo provides us with a large audience and reach, making it an ideal new channel in our growing list of device and application partnerships.”

The Viigo application for BlackBerry offers News & RSS, Weather, Sports, Business & Finance, Podcasts, Local Interest, Shopping, Social Networks, Entertainment, Flights & Travel and Politics. Best of all, it’s FREE!

Viigo Alpha for BlackBerry has been updated to version 3.1.324.

The obvious change that I noticed is that there is now a “Deals” service where you can get the latest deals by store or by category. I’m sure there are also plenty of bug fixes in this update too.

Browse by Store so far includes 6th Avenue, Abe’s of Maine, Amazon.com, B&H Photo Video, Best Buy, Buy.com, CompUSA, Dell, Geeks, JR.com, NewEgg, OfficeDepot, Overstock, PC Connection and Walmart.

Browse by Category so far includes Cameras and Camcorders, Computer Accessories, Computer Storage, Computers, Flash Memory, GPS Navigators, Games and Consoles, Home Theatre and Televisions, MP3 Players, Printers, Security and Nanny Cameras and Webcams.

Viigo Alpha is still in its testing stages so you may find a few bugs here and there. Since this isn’t a production release install at your own risk!

You can download Viigo Alpha by going to getviigo.com/alpha from your BlackBerry Browser. Don’t forget to let Viigo know about any bugs or suggestions through the “Feedback” option in the application itself, or by leaving some comments here.
