BlackBerry on Crack: 25 Tools to Supercharge Your Lifeline
Just got a note from Rich at Bootstrapper that they put together a really good researched article which mentions every important software you could use to get even more from your BlackBerry.

I don’t want to repeat everything they wrote but one thing seems to be obvious: They might have already took a look to our BlackBerry and GPS guide.

BlackBerry Security
“Masabi and GrIDsure have announced that they have co-developed a new secure ID system using mobile phones. By using Masabi’s EncryptME, the certified Java security application for mobile phones featuring 1024bit RSA encryption, and GrIDsure’s ID technology, mobile phones can act as discrete secure one time password tokens or provide networked two-channel transaction authentication for the highest levels of security.”

It looks the BlackBerry is getting even more secure and can carry a lot of security applications. The first deployments of this solution are planned for late 2007 and will be available BlackBerry and Symbian mobile devices.

Austin asked: “Where can i down load this program i need it to change my peral color i think?”

We found it for you. Alan wrote some interesting small apps that are really useful! I like the “SoftReset” application as my Pearl can only be resetted by such an application or by removing and replacing the battery. Which is kind of inconvenient.

Everyone should have a BlackBerry!

Mike Lazaridis was interviewed and said:

“Our belief is that really everyone should have a BlackBerry. It should be just like you get a laptop or phone on your desk, or desk for that matter. It should be standard issue.”

Sadly for the BlackBerry widows of the world, this plucky, niche player is well on its way to achieving that goal.

That’s right Mike!

October 18th, 2007

The final version of MobileTracker has been released. The most important new features are: photo support (which allows you to embed photos into your tracklog taken with your BlackBerry camera) and GPX file export. Besides that, the KML tracklog file format seems to be replaced by the KMZ file format which is also able to carry photos in a file. So the “embedding photo” feature is only available for KMZ tracklog files to watch your tracklog at Google Earth.


The tracklog application for mobile devices!

  • Records a tracklog.
  • Elevation can be tracked.
  • Configurable timespan between positions.
  • Extensive statistical information.

MobileTracker is very easy to use:

  • Two-click tracklog recording.
  • Background tracking.
  • Color coded status display.

New features in MobileTracker 1.4.0:

  • More formats: KMZ and GPX tracklog export.
  • BlackBerry® camera support: Add photos to your tracklog (KMZ only).
  • Advanced statistics: metric & imperial units; traveled distance, time, and more.



Easily record tracklogs using your mobile device and show them in Google Earth™ or publish them with Google Maps™.
