I had a notification in my Application Center on my Blackberry Storm that new software was available. It is an app called Blackberry App World. This is basically RIMs attempt at a localized App world for the Blackberry. There are many apps out there for the Blackberry, but there has not been a good central location to find them.Taking their lead from Apple, this App World makes my Blackberry so much better. Now I can search Apps that are free, top downloads, made from many different developers, all in one place. My favorite one was the free download from Pandora. I have been a Pandora user for a few years, but, to my knowledge, it was not available on the Storm until just recently. And yes, Pandora works fine even without built in WiFi on my phone. I was driving down the road and using it fine.
There are apps for Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Vlingo, games, GPS tracking of my phone, mobile CRM and many more. Ahh...this makes the Blackberry that much better.
Try the Blackberry, we have had Cut & Paste since version 1. :-) Actually the iPhone is still more slick and has way more Apps, but if you are one of the millions and millions on other networks (other than AT&T) get a Blackberry.

Hey man - you've got to try the app called "Shazam". It's developed by the same people who did it for the I-Phone. If you hear a song on the radio you can put your phone up to the speaker and take a 20 second sample of the song and it will tell you the song name/artist/album, etc. It's free for a month or so, then you have to pay for it - $4.99 I think it is.
Pretty sweet.
I was thinking about you while playing games on my new iPhone on the trip back from Indiana. I was thinking man I'm glad I don't have a blackberry so I can play games. :) It really is a toy, but a very fun one.
