Keep your BlackBerry at your side with the Seidio Spring Clip Holster for the BlackBerry Bold 9900

Posted by Ryan on May 19, 2012 in Apps | 0 comments

"One of the best holsters for a BlackBerry smartphone – Place the Seidio Spring Clip Holster for the BlackBerry Bold 9900 on your side"

For some reason, I don’t like the leather holster that RIM ships with the BlackBerry Bold 9900. Maybe it’s because I find it restricts quick access to my device, or maybe it’s the style, heck perhaps it’s both. So I set out on a mission, a mission that would end my holster torment forever. A quest to find the best holster for the BlackBerry Bold 9900. Now, the question is did I find that mythical holster? Continue reading the review of Seidio’s Spring Clip Holster for the BlackBerry Bold 9900.

Save the Somyeols before it’s too late with Somyeol Jump and Run on the BlackBerry PlayBook

Posted by Ryan on May 19, 2012 in Apps | 0 comments

Looking to get a little gaming in this week? Then look no further than Somyeol Jump and Run for the BlackBerry PlayBook. Somyeol Jump and Run is a 2D side scrolling game in which your mission is to save a group of Somyeols as Metroid’s attacks their home planet. The game features 100 levels, Scoreloop integration, various control options and more.

Features:

• Totally FREE
• Unique Jump&Run
• Over 100 fun and challenging levels
• 11 different types of Somyeols
• Collect and find hidden trophys
• Scoreloop online highscore, compete with friends or players all over the world
• Different input methods

Essentially what you’re doing is controlling a group of about 10 Somyeols, and have to successfully move them from point A to point B, but that’s where the simplicity ends. The issue is that the other Somyeols don’t have a mind of their own, and just follow the leader and when you’re faced with fire, spikes, and water this makes for a slightly more complicated game. If you’re thinking “ah, that’s easy”, remember that you need to ensure that all of the drone Somyeols make their way back to the rocket ship…..alive. The more you leave behind or the more that die on the way the lower your score is and the harder it is to continue.

I was impressed to see the developer add Scoreloop into their game, really does adds to the fun factor when playing and competing against others. Somyeol Jump and Run is available on the BlackBerry PlayBook and is available in BlackBerry App World for the low-low cost of free, and you can’t beat that.

BlackBerry in the UK: Pay As You Go vs Contract

Posted by Ryan on May 18, 2012 in Apps | 0 comments

With the BlackBerry Smartphone being so popular here in the UK, one predicament that many parents may well have when buying a lower end device for their children is do they go down the contract route or Pay As You Go (PAYG). I thought I would have a look at the options and compare the costs over a two year period, as this is how you get the best deal on a contract.

For my little experiment I have only used one carrier and that is T-Mobile UK. The reason I have chosen them is due to them offering the best option when is comes to BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) on PAYG.

The device I have used for the comparison is the new BlackBerry Curve 9320 as I strongly believe this will be the most successful handset with the younger generation over the next year or so.
