    In reply to BlackBerry-Toting TiVo Addicts: You Are No Longer Without an App
    It seems strange that they released a BlackBerry App before an iPhone App.

    There are a couple apps that let you schedule Tivo recordings from your iPhone, but nothing officially from Tivo.

    This is damned exciting. I use Opera Mini and it is pretty good, though. My Curve is my first smartphone though so my opinion might not be the most sophisticated.

    In reply to RIM Gobbles Up Torch Mobile (Translation: BlackBerry's Getting WebKit, Thank God)
    I love big bloated browsers and I cannot lie. Note to BlackBerry users: Keep Internet Explorer 4 running on an old Windows 98 box connected to a 14.4 dial-up connection just to make your BlackBerry browser look not nearly as awful as it really is. Besides, who wants a better browser on your phone? You might actually use it sometime.

    Bad jokes aside, it is nice that Research In Motion is fixing their shortcomings. Hopefully this will be released soon because my BlackBerry would love a browser upgrade.

    In reply to The Month in BlackBerry Apps: Too Sunny to Work Edition
    The gent next to me on yesterday's busride was pretty happy with Pandora on his BlackBerry Storm.

    That said, it looks like both RIM and Apple are playing catch-up with each other. On the timesuck front, the iPhone is a tough game to beat. The Twitter apps are golden, as are the streaming radio apps.

    Also, looks like the WordPress app works like the iPhone app. Good for posting pics but kind of unwieldy. You really need a full computer (or netbook) to wordpress.

    In reply to Skyfire Browser for BlackBerry Update Adds Keyboard Shortcuts
    Just wanted to clarify from Skyfire -- We’re still in the Private Alpha phase for BlackBerry. Last week, we distributed the third release to our BlackBerry Bold alpha participants.

    We appreciate all of the interest and requests from BlackBerry users dying to get a Skyfire browsing experience, but right now we have all of the alpha users we need.

    Of course, eventually, we will expand the program, but in the meantime we are focused on iterating with this alpha community on the BlackBerry Bold. Stay tuned and know that we’re working hard to get to an Open Beta for the BlackBerry as soon as we can.

    Skyfire makes windows mobile a competant web browsing machine, so its good that blackberrys get in on the action too. This is literally the most important app on my windows phone.

    I read the above headline as Skyfire for Bakery hits Beta.



    Can you tell I'm hungry?



    Seriously, how awesome would an app be that would cook you up delicious fresh pastries on demand via your phone?

    Neat. But does it have service advisories and/or LIRR/MetroNorth functionality? Those two features are why I love CityTransit.

    In reply to NYC Exit Strategy: The Other NYC Subway App You Need
    This is kind of a good idea since people like this do exist (and sometimes I'm one of them), but it's also kind of lazy. Once you think about which stop you want and whether you're going uptown or downtown, you already know which end of the subway you should ride.

    @Killjoy: I choose specific cars and seats on my daily commute because I have about 30 seconds of leeway in going from the LIRR to the B train. Otherwise, I've got another 5-10 minutes to wait.

    @OMG! Ponies!: Okay, also a good point. I'm a big fan of getting your exercise by speeding up the Sneakernet portions of your commute, but a 30 second window needs more of a solution than shoe leather alone can provide.

    I'm waiting for the app that can match my level of anal retentiveness and will tell me where to stand so the doors open right in front of me... Always love when the platform is near-empty and me and some other guy are jockeying for one specific tile.

    @Hiphopopotamus: I used to commute each way to Newark on NJ Transit, and I would try to figure out where the train would stop each day. It was fun watching the train slow down, and one group would be following the door, and run into a group waiting till the train stopped.

    The Slacker app is fantastic AND it's free. It's all I listen to now. It's probably the only really great feature of the Storm . Sad to say.


    In general the BB apps are pretty pathetic compared to what the iPhone has . Plus they charge more and have very few free or lite apps.

    @WTF-STFU: Then again, the average iPhone app is a piece of trash. In all my time with my iPhone, the best ones I've seen are Shazam, Now Playing, Save Benjis, Twitterific, FlickIt, and the eBay app. Even the NYTimes app was nigh-unusable for its first year.
