Blackberry Tour 9630
Today I finally got a chance to get my hands on the new Blackberry Tour from Verizon. I must admit after using my Storm for so long, I forgot how nice it is to have a device that responds quickly, and the Tour does not disappoint.
This really is an all in one device for anyone who wants a fully featured Blackberry. Out of the box the Tour comes with a data cable, foreign outlet plug-in attachments (as it is a global phone with pre-installed SIM), and 2GB micro-SD memory card.
On board comes a 3.2mp camera with video. The brilliant 480 by 360 resolution screen made me sigh an “I’m in love with phone” sigh. The Tour has streaming video support without the need to download any application. And of course it comes stock with the Blackberry media player that we’re familiar with.
MyPhone for Blackberry
So, are you ready to change your Berry’s interface? Lets say to something more along the lines of an Iphone interface? Then allow me to introduce you to the MyPhone app for Blackberry. Notice I said “app”, not theme. This application actually changes your entire phones user interface, rather than just changing the look of your icons. Now I am not a Blackberry user with Iphone envy, but this is a pretty neat addition to your phone if you ask me.
Pandora Interface
For those of you that are already familiar with Pandora for Blackberry, I’m sure you are aware of how sweet of an application it is! Please skip to part two of this blog for information on the newly released update that you can Download for Pandora as I will be discussing general information on the program in part one for those who are new to Pandora for Blackberry.
PART ONE: If you’ve ever thought to yourself, “I wish I could totally and completely personalize the radio and music I listen to”, well good news! Enter Pandora for Blackberry. Pandora is available OTA and allows you to create up to 100 customizable live streaming radio stations right on your phone. On top that you can create one Quick Mix station that allows you to choose as many as you want from your 100 to get a wider variety of music with the touch of one button.(Rather than having to switch back and forth.)
