Blackberry Makeover

My Blackberry is seriously way cooler this week than it was last week! You might remember when I posted passionately about VLINGO for Blackberry? The free application that lets you speak your emails, texts and more and really works?

Well, I am about to speak even MORE passionately about what "he who would rather not be named" can do for your Blackberry!

This is my pretty little phone

This is the back of my pretty little phone

And thanks to "he" I no longer have that Fugly background on my screen, and not just that - I mean you can get new wallpapers anywhere but he made me a whole new THEME and it matches my pretty little phone and I can fit more icons on my main screen!

SO my pretty pink paisleys that match my pretty little phone are on most of my screens, but since "he" is SO cool - just look at what is on my LOCK screen -

And if you want a pretty little theme to go with your pretty little phone he can make you one too! Drop me a note and I will put you in touch with "him" or you can go to Zimplifier.com and purchase a pre-made one like V.I.Pink or Simplicity or one similar to mine but without the owl Girl Pearl - available in various colors! For the storm users he has the "Perfect Storm" soon to be available in many colors too!

"He" thinks I am lame because I like the "L" shape but "he" can do so much more, he can make your icons scroll on your screen (so you don't have to hit the menu button)! How cool is that! You really have to check this stuff out! We are not talking about just pretty pictures here- "he" makes full on themes - better functionality for your Blackberry!

NOW I CALL ON YOU - PLEASE help me spread the word about Zimplifier.com and all the great themes for blackberry! If you would, mention it in one of your posts this week and link over to Zimplifier! If you do let me know - I might be able to talk "him" into offering you a discount for spreading the word!

Calling all my BlackBerry friends...

Got Vlingo?

OMG I think it is the coolest thing since the Kindle! And you all know I love my Kindle! So Todd (who would normally prefer to be left out of Blog conversations) found this new BlackBerry feature today called Vlingo! It rocks!

With Vlingo you can talk to your phone and it understands you. Yes you read that right...it understands you and you don't have to talk like a robot either you can just talk!

Send an email without typing, send a text without typing, search the internet without typing. Are you catching on. HOW COOL IS THIS! Just speak, verify and send.

This is sure to save a lot of thumbs, track balls and maybe lives (texting while driving for example!)

Here are some screen shots courtesty of "him who would rather not be named"

And for those of you still in the dark ages still - grab your PIN number and email it to me so we can pin each other (faster than email and free unlike texting)

Oh, Another dark ages update...took me weeks to take the time to do it but it is worth it! take a moment to go into your BlackBerry Web maintenance site and delete your email account and then put it back in...why? Because if your email host has imap relay you will start to get your emails instantly rather than 15 or 20 minutes delayed! Now, that is pretty darn cool too! How do you know if yours worked or not? After you add your email account back in click on EDIT then on Advanced setting...in the top box if it looks like this

rimimap.xxxxx.net (xxxx being your email server)

then you are HOOKED UP! If not...sorry you wont get instant emails.

Ok once again a shout out to "him who would rather not be named" because he is the master behind all things BlackBerry. He has even mastered the art of creating your own CUSTOM themes...if your interested $7 will get you one!

I am sorry my BlackBerry might be AWESOME but it does not hold a candle to this phone found by Becky! Enjoy: but then come back... http://www.flixxy.com/sumsing-turbo-3000-cellphone.htm

Now if only BlackBerry would call me up and ask if we would like to preview cool new BlackBerry's and software for them! Know anyone?
