| Advanced Users: Video Tutorial on PlayBook Jailbreaking & Loading Android Marketplace Posted: 08 Dec 2011 09:04 PM PST Patrick let us know about a video done by MapleLeafsVideos on how to use Dingleberry to jailbreak the BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 developer beta and load up Android Marketplace. There really isn't much end users can do with this more than what they could already do with converted APK to BAR files but still its fun if you know what you are doing.

| Units is a Beautiful & Functional Unit Converter for BlackBerry Posted: 08 Dec 2011 02:48 PM PST
Over the years there have been many unit converters for BlackBerry. RIM even included a built in Metric converter in their last few OS jumps. Still I am impressed with Bulbera's Units app for BlackBerry. It is both visually appealing and efficient not something you can say about many apps. If you find yourself converting units often you definitely should check out Units. You can see what I mean in this demo video below: Desktop Video Link | Mobile Video LinkYou can pick up Units in App World for $2.99 (On sale for $1.99 now)

| Celebrate HedoneDesign’s 3rd Birthday With Discounted Themes! Posted: 08 Dec 2011 12:25 PM PST To celebrate their third birthday, theme specialists HedoneDesign is offering up a great discount to BlackBerry users. Hedone just emailed me to say that this year, they are offering all of their themes at discounted prices (from $0.99 to $2.99) until Sunday, December 10th.
You can pick them up in our store. Be sure to check device availability and OS specifications before hitting the buy button. This includes new themes Avio, Asepsis, and Sphere (for OS 5.0 users). The discount is applied on the themes already, so if you’ve been holding out for that one theme but didn’t want to pay $6.99, here’s your chance.

| Walk Through Hands On Video Of The Curve 9380 At RIM Campus With Its Marketing Manager Posted: 08 Dec 2011 12:20 PM PST
When I was at the RIM Campus in Waterloo, Ontario last month I got a chance to take a look at the BlackBerry 7 OS running BlackBerry Curve 9380 (a.k.a Orlando) and have some hands on time with it. I then got a chance to really play with it and posted the review you can find right here on BerryReview.com. I spent some time with Brendan Desajardin of the Curve franchise marketing management team who gave me a walkthrough of the device. According to Brendan, 98% of carriers are going to have it come with a 2 GB MicroSD card in the box. As I mention in my review, mine didn’t come with an SD card of any size but it was a review device so can’t take that to mean anything. The target for this device is emerging markets – I guess Canada is an exception because we are the home of RIM – and no word at the time of if it was coming out in the USA. No CDMA version of the 9380 is planned but we have already seen in Canada an AWS antenna variant for 1700/2100 MHz networks such as Mobilicity (who has released it), WIND, Videotron, or in the USA, T-Mobile and Cincinnati Bell.
Desktop Video Link | Mobile Video LinkBendan also showed me on his own personal device the game called 3D Rollercoaster Rush Jurassic 2 which will be installed with the Curve 9380 and is a full game not just a trial. Check out the video below.

| BlackBerry News for the BlackBerry PlayBook v1.2.0.5 Adds Google Reader Import Posted: 08 Dec 2011 04:40 AM PST
It seems like RIM is slowly adding back the features they removed when they acquired Viigo and then stripped it into their BlackBerry News app. At least they got rid of the memory leaks but now they are adding back features like the ability to import Google Reader subscriptions. I would be happier if it were a full on Google Reader client but I am hoping they are working on that for next week.
