Rovio has gifted PlayBook pig pummelers with another update for Angry Birds Space, so get slinging and let us know what’s new in the comments!

It’s good to see continued support from Rovio in the PlayBook gamespace. Having the support of this gaming giant should encourage other development houses to get onboard and dig into BB10. The success of BB10 is resting solidly on the developer community, and not just for games, so come on, folks! Get on board!

Seidio BlackBerry Bold 9900 9930 Extended Battery Seidio BlackBerry Bold 9900 9930 Extended Battery2

We told you earlier that Seidio was close to releasing a new extended battery for the BlackBerry Bold 9900 and 9930. They contacted us earlier today and now Dave pointed out to me that the battery is available for purchase. You can now get the Seidio Innocell 3000mAh Super Extended Life Battery for the Bold 9900 for $69.95. It should offer you about double the battery life of the standard battery but it does take away NFC capabilities.

Check out the Innocell 3000mAh Super Extended Life Battery here on Seidio's website and stay tuned for a review shortly!

The Badoo social network promises to help you meet new people from its 150 million users and hit it off. They will just point you in the right direction and it is all up to you from there on out. We take no responsibility if you end up meeting a new ax wielding ninja with pink hair or anything like that… so consider yourself warned.

QNX Jeep

In case you haven't noticed I am pretty impressed with the latest Jeep Wrangler QNX CAR 2 Reference Vehicle. I used to always want a Wrangler but now it is even more enticing. Now all I want to see is a QNX CAR 2 motorcycle or Vespa. :)

Check out the video below:

Marmalade Releases A Boatload of New PlayBook Games

Posted: 13 Jun 2012 06:57 AM PDT

 Doodle2 Doodle 

I am not sure exactly how this slipped by me but one of my favorite PlayBook game developers, Marmalade, has a bunch of new PlayBook games in App World. Some of them seem to have been released in the last month (some a bit more) but have mostly flown under the radar. Either way they are definitely worth mentioning. I am still going through them myself so let us know if you spot any gems.

Here are the latest ones I spotted:

I know some other news outlets have been covering possible layoffs at RIM but Thorsten Heins has been clear that RIM is still hiring in departments working on BlackBerry 10.
