BlackBerry Z10 Hardware Review (video)
It’s Wednesday, January 30th and unseasonably warm in Toronto. RIM has just nailed a presentation more than two years in the making. BlackBerry 10 is here, and the Z10 is its first representative. It is difficult to talk about the BlackBerry Z10 in isolated terms. Yes, the phone resembles a modern smartphone is every possible [...]
BlackBerry Bridge Updated to V2.0.0.30, fixes predictive text issues
With BlackBerry World 2012 well underway, it seems like logical timing for RIM to release their latest update to the bridge app for the PlayBook. Updated to version 2.0.0.30, the change log isn’t a large one, but addresses issues with predictive text. The update should be live in the BlackBerry App World, so go in [...]
Update: BlackBerry Music Gateway for streaming to home and car stereos is now available
With the kick-off of BlackBerry World tomorrow, RIM is expected to introduce a number of new products, initiatives and, ultimately, its future. But with the BlackBerry Music Gateway they’re sticking with what they know best: simple and powerful hardware that just works. To that end the Gateway is a small box (60mm x 40mm x [...]
BlackBerry PlayBook Bluetooth Keyboard Case Hands-on (Video)
The BlackBerry PlayBook is nothing if not versatile, as evinced by its almost-complete transformation in February with OS 2.0. With that release, it is more like a laptop than ever, with a comprehensive email/calendar/contacts suite as well as updates to DocsToGo. The official PlayBook Bluetooth Keyboard Case is available for $99 exclusively from The Source [...]
BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 Review: Three reasons it’s the best tablet bang for your buck
There is no easy way to say this: your PlayBook is now useful. Not that it wasn’t before, but the hundreds of thousands of dedicated BlackBerry users who eagerly spent nearly $500 on a PlayBook when it was released in April 2011 were often disappointed with its limited capability. No true email or calendar client, [...]
New RIM roadmap confirms HSPA+ Playbook, Curve 9220 and 9320, October BlackBerry “London” launch and more
This is a nice way to start the day. The entire RIM roadmap for 2012 has leaked and it’s a doozy. Let’s start with the simple stuff: the Curve 9220 and 9320 are ready to go for a mid-year release. The 9220 is indeed an EDGE-only device with a 2.44″ 320×240 display with a 2MP [...]
RIM co-CEOs may be forced to relinquish co-Chairmen roles
Based on the initial findings of a Corporate Governance review mandate issued last July, RIM co-CEOs Mike Lazaridis and Jim Balsillie may be forced to step down as co-chairs of the Board. As we told you in mid-December, there have been calls by RIM investors for a change of governance, with five-year board member Barbara Stymiest [...]
Revisited: BlackBerry Torch 9860
When I reviewed the all-touch BlackBerry Curve 9380 (which I didn’t much like) I decided to take a stab at using its bigger brother the Torch 9860, a device released back in August. This much-maligned device didn’t receive nearly the same amount of press as the flagship Bold 9900, and was overshadowed by the familiar [...]
BlackBerry Curve 9380 Review
Nostalgia is a funny thing. Though last year I left my BlackBerry behind for the shinier, app-centric shores of iOS and Android, I still recall my experiences fondly. There are times I miss the great keyboard, push email and how easy it is to compose lengthy soliloquies like it’s nothing at all. I retain a [...]
Video: BlackBerry Curve 9360 Review
The BlackBerry Curve series was the golden goose of RIM’s surge into the mainstream. With the 8310 becoming one of the top-selling smartphones of all time, it’s not uncommon to still see them floating around the streets of major cities, emerging from pockets and belt clips. With its success came the sequels, and there were [...]
