Targus Truss case for BlackBerry PlayBook [Review]
This review can go one of two ways. Super short, punchy and insightful or long and rambling. I'm going for the former.
Targus' Truss case is a beautifully realised accessory. It's jam-packed with oodles of luxury, stinks of class and turns the already gorgeous PlayBook into a tome of mighty power. Let me explain.
The case is roughly US$40 depending on where you find it. If you find it laying in the road, it's free. If it's hanging in a fancy tech ... -
BlackBerry Curve 9320 — cheap but flashy
BlackBerry today announced the release of the Curve 9320 and 9220, more of the same but with a dedicated BBM button. Take a gander: There are other features as well. OS 7.1 makes its debut on the BlackBerry Curve range. It hasn't been the most well-received OS, but it'll do in a pinch. RIM also throws in an FM radio (you know, for the kids) a "long lasting battery" even on 3G or 2G connections and a mobile hotspot feature. Whatever, ... -
BlackBerry 10 is the OS we’ve been waiting for
If this sneak preview video of BlackBerry 10's features and UI doesn't warm your heart, may we suggest checking your pulse. RIM's CEO, Thorsten Heins, also revealed some other features at the BlackBerry Jam developer conference yesterday and it's clear that RIM has been innovating.
True BlackBerry loyalists will bemoan RIM's decision to pursue touchscreen keyboards, but the keyboard previewed on a BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha device, looks promising. It uses modeling algorithms to learn where you press on the ... -
BlackBerry Curve 9320, more of the same with a ‘better keyboard’
The new BlackBerry Curve 9320 leaves nothing to the imagination. It runs BlackBerry OS 7.1, has the same look of previous Curves but with a "better keyboard" according to a Vietnamese site which has been lucky (can we say lucky when it comes to a BlackBerry?) enough to preview it. The specs are underwhelming at best, so we can guess that this will be a budget phone that slots in at the US$150 mark. The 9320 has a single-core CPU (retch), ... -
RIM changes PlayBook app sideloading story
Sideloading apps? Not on our PlayBook, said RIM. The “chaotic cesspool” of the Android Market and piracy concerns caused Alec Saunders, Developer Relations VP to send out this tweet: @Spy520e we're removing sideloading for consumers.Pretty sure we've got a solution for devs. — Alec Saunders (@asaunders) April 4, 2012 RIM would have none of it. The struggling company sent a message which counteracts Saunders' message: We are looking at different options including removal or evolution of our current side loading functionality. In the event ... -
BlackBerry Curve 9380: Death by touch screen [Review]
When the BlackBerry Curve 9380 arrived, it sat quietly on my desk for about five minutes, just looking beautiful. The soft light from the nearby window hit its silver edging and the screen in a way that made it look like it was gently glowing. I think this, along with its sleek curves and menus that transitioned seamlessly as I happily swished around on the touch screen, induced a stupor that convinced me to say something along the lines of ... -
BlackBerry PlayBook tablet OS 2.0 review
BlackBerry fans, rejoice. Your reason for believing in the beleaguered Canadian manufacturer is here. The PlayBook was throwaway nonsense, an expensively wrapped tablet with a broken OS irritatingly tied to a smartphone. OS 2.0 breaks the shackles and allows the tablet to stand on its own. BlackBerry has opened my eyes to one of the best tablets on the market, one that now I hold in a higher regard than the iPad 2, thanks to the refurbished OS. Let’s see ... -
PlayBook to receive BlackBerry 10 says RIM
“When it’s ready” the BlackBerry PlayBook will get BB10 OS, says RIM. Rob Orr, RIM’s vice president of product management says, "We've said publicly a number of times that our first BB10 handset will be available towards the end of 2012, and that's still firmly the case. At some point after the launch we'll bring BB10 to our PlayBooks, yes.” RIM has apparently managed to turn the fortunes of the poorly-received PlayBook around thanks to fervent downloading of the BlackBerry PlayBook 2.0 ... -
Video: BlackBerry Torch 9810
BlackBerry, always trying its hardest to push its Torch range of smartphones into the market. Our intrepid gadget journo, Martin Carstens matches his wits against what BlackBerry has to offer. Is the Torch 9810 past its prime? Can it compete with the "best" smartphones on the market such as the Galaxy Nexus and iPhone 4S? Maybe not, but we'll give it a chance, for now. BlackBerry loves combining touch with the standard QWERTY keyboard and the Torch 9810 may be ... -
Control a Wii, Xoom or PS3 with BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0
BlackBerry OS 2.0 has just been released and already, a powerful new (hidden?) feature has been discovered. An update to BlackBerry Bridge (the native software which pairs BlackBerry phones with PlayBooks) now lets users connect to a variety of zesty tech, outside of the maligned RIM devices. With Bluetooth HID, compatible devices such as the Motorola Xoom, Nintendo Wii, Playstation 3, HTC Flyer and the Galaxy Tab 10.1 can be controlled with a BlackBerry handset. BlackBerry Bridge is supposed to be a ...
