Our buddy Nan Palmero interviewed BlackBerry app developer Fabian
Heuwieser. He's the guy responsible for some cool apps like LaterDude
Pro and VibAndRing.

My wife and I just returned from Europe for our anniversary. While we were there, we stopped in Munich to meet up with Fabian Heuwieser. Fabian is one of those people that you have to meet if you're in Europe.

Check out leaked pics of the BlackBerry Pearl 9100, the new 3G Pearl! http://www.blackberrycool.com/2009/11/20

Gotta love Salomondrin for leaking pics of the upcoming BlackBerry Pearl 9100 aka Stratus. The 9100 is apparently a 3G Pearl Flip for the GSM network. It has SureType, an optical trackpad, 3G, WiFi and the version we're seeing is running OS 5.0.0.350. ...

Played a good BlackBerry game lately? I have been playing a ton of Addictive Tower Defense. That game rules. http://store.blackberrycool.com/product.

BlackBerry Cool This Bold 9700 battery is amazing. I've been running a ton of apps, making calls, taking pics, listening to music and the battery has been going for over 26 hours.

Part 2 of our BlackBerry Bold 9700 Music Stress Test. This time we're playing music with all the connections on, pulling data and streaming music using Nobex Radio Companion to a stereo using Bluetooth and the BlackBerry Media Gateway. How long will it last now? http://www.blackberrycool.com/2009/11/18

So it turns out the BlackBerry Bold 9700 can play music for up to 38 hours, as advertised (the BlackBerry Cool official time is just short of 39 hours).

BlackBerry Bold 9700 Stress Test! I'm testing out the music player on the Bold 9700 to see how long it will go on a single charge. Radio turned off, how long do you think the music will play for? Take a guess. http://www.blackberrycool.com/2009/11/16

So here's the deal: The BlackBerry Bold 9700 has some battery optimizations that make it last so long it makes the Energizer Bunny look impotent. That, combined with some OS optimizations specifically tailored to the music player, means the Bold 9700 can play music for a long time.

When we first posted impressions of the BlackBerry Curve 9700, we asked BlackBerry Cool readers what they would like to know about the device. We have taken some time to post more pictures of this device, and answer some of your questions.

Have any BlackBerry Cool Facebook fans bought the BlackBerry Storm2? What do you think of it? http://www.blackberrycool.com/2009/10/29

This is an open thread for anyone who owns a BlackBerry Storm2 to comment what they think of the device so far. Are you happy with the device? Do you have any gripes with the Storm2?

It's interesting to see what carriers are preloading on their devices. The Storm2 has a couple cool apps but most of it is pretty lame. Honestly, why would anyone buy their music from Verizon? http://www.blackberrycool.com/2009/10/28

The Storm2 is available from Verizon today, so lets take a look at what applications are on your device.

Speaking of themes, the latest OS 5.0.0.328 from Verizon broke my BlackBerry Storm themes! This is a bug that RIM may have missed on the Storm2 as well. Testing as I write this. http://www.blackberrycool.com/2009/10/27

I have loaded the official OS 5.0.0.328 on my BlackBerry Storm 9530 and my themes are broken. There has been some buzz about this in the forums and I've tested the theory using an Elecite theme on my Verizon 9530.

BlackBerry App World is launching themes on November 9th, the first day of the BlackBerry Developers Conference. Sweet! http://www.blackberrycool.com/2009/10/21

We're getting tips that RIM is launching themes on BlackBerry App World November 9th. It's still very early to tell whether RIM will hold to this date, but we do know that they're aiming for it. A number of events could lead to a delay but all we can do is wait and see.

Storm2 or Storm 2? That is the question. http://www.blackberrycool.com/2009/10/16

All BlackBerry devices that are made go through a naming process that is, to say the least, confusing. The device name will often change as a BlackBerry goes from engineering to internal testing, then to carrier testing and finally through marketing and out to the consumer. ...

What do you guys think of the Storm 2? Wrote about the Verizon BlackBerry Storm 9550 yesterday. http://www.blackberrycool.com/2009/10/08
Source: www.blackberrycool.com
The new BlackBerry Storm 2 9550 by Verizon is shaping up to be the BlackBerry touchscreen device we've all been waiting for. I remember back when Mike Lazaridis was taking criticism for the original Storm and his response was simply sorry it was the number 3 selling smartphone in North America. ...
BlackBerry Cool Word on the street is that the BlackBerry Storm 2 comes with OpenGL support. Looks like we'll be seeing visually rich and creative UI's for BlackBerry soon enough.

So we know of 4 upcoming devices from RIM and they're all updates of previous models. This is great news, but wouldn't you like to see RIM adding some new features we haven't seen before? When I buy a BlackBerry, I don't want to see the same device but better, launched a month later. Here is a list of features RIM shou...ld add to upcoming devices, to make us feel like we have the latest and greatest.Read More
