MobileTracker 1.4.1 available - finally!

More than 1.5 years ago we reported the first time about MobileTracker for BlackBerry. Since then a lot of development took place with this nice app. There were new product updates as well a Windows Mobile version that is also available. We even had this as a free download on our blog.

Now there is a new version available of this ncie app and it comes with better BlackBerry support as well as with more supported BlackBerry devices including the brand new BlackBerry Bold™ and Kickstart™ devices.

The description states as requirements that you need an installed SD / media card to use this application. This is actually just the default setting and usually makes sense because such tracklog files can be really really big. However, for those of you who did not have or do not want a SD card we wrote a nice article about a trick to get this working with your internal memory as well: How to use MobileTracker without SD Card.

Moreover, if you are looking for quite good instructions on how to install such applications check this out: Installing BlackBerry Applications.

We even have articles about how to set up your Bluetooth GPS receiver to work with GPS applications on your BlackBerry. This is really helpful for those of you who did not do this before: How to pair a Bluetooth GPS receiver with your BlackBerry.

You won’t believe it! But we also already reviewed a bunch of Bluetooth GPS receivers that work pretty well with the BlackBerry. Therefor, please check out our BlackBerryInsight Hardware Store!
