S4BB Limited just released PowerControl for BlackBerry®. The easiest way to save battery on your BlackBerry® Smartphone.
PowerControl for BlackBerry®
PowerControl is the ultimate battery saving tool! It allows you to schedule your device to turn off and back on when you want.What PowerControl Does
PowerControl is a handy software that helps you automatically shutdown and power off at a scheduled time you specified. It allows you to set up a power off and on schedule from Monday to Sunday and you can even set up a different schedule for each day.
By shutting down the BlackBerry® on a regular basis, a lot of battery power can be saved!
Example
Imagine you work from Monday to Friday and every day you sleep 6 hours. In these 6 hours most people do not need the device to be switched on and waste battery. You could turn off the device before you go to bed, but this is hard to remember every single day. With PowerControl you will never forget to turn your BlackBerry® off and back on.
Another example would be that you want to have the Wednesday lunch with your buddy without any interruption. Just set a PowerControl schedule to turn the device off every Wednesday at 1 pm and turn it back on at 2 pm. You have the break you deserve and you even save battery!
Check out PowerControl now! Only $4.99 (50% Off) at introduction price!

Dictionary one of the best BlackBerry Apps yet
Dec 30th
Since it’s first English version dating back to the 1600′s the dictionary has been a staple of writers and knowledge seekers alike, it come in so many different flavors and sizes from the Pocket edition eye straining size to the 2 ton book of knowledge editions you see from time to time in great Libraries and Universities alike.
The one thing that always made the dictionary a hard thing to use was carrying it around with you, to school, home from school at work etc etc.
Just the last month I remember rummaging through the entire house to find one for my son…we never did find one either, but know thanks to my blackberry Smartphone we will never be without a dictionary again.
Introducing Dictionary and Thesaurus - By Dictionary.com, and this is not a dictionary it is a truly useful tool, with fast response times, a great layout and several different options you can chose, like the ability to email or text a definition, the ability to see your word in English or Spanish, there is the built in Thesaurus, you have the ability to go back to recently viewed words. When you go between the tabs of the Dictionary and the Thesaurus it automatically takes your current word with you so there is not need to retype and search again.
Some of its Features
* Dictionary and Thesaurus
* Word of the Day English and Spanish
* More than 325,000 words and definitions
* More than 275,000 synonyms
* Phonetic and audio pronunciations
* Spelling suggestions
* Recent history
* Social networking functions
* Email integration
The look of the application is great no wasted space and the menus are easy to get to and operational is very simple and straight forward and its actually fun to use, in fact I use it all the time now just for learning words I hear in passing or come across while reading, this application is indispensable. One of the best features is the Word of the day feature which allows you to also hear the word spoken through your BlackBerry as well as it gives you the word in a sentence which is always a bonus when researching words.
But by far the Best thing about this app is that it is truly integrated with your BlackBerry, whether you are writing an email or reading a document all you need to do is highlight a word and hit the menu and it will give you options to define that word or get Synonyms for that word as well, once clicked it opens that word in the dictionary application….very very cool. So if you are looking for an APP that you just can’t do with out, check out the Dictionary app. Find it here at appworld

Blackberry Theme Song Now Remixed "BLKBerry"
Dec 29th
>
Well our Good Friend and BBU Member Swindoe is back with a remix of his soon to be HIT BLKberry version 2.0, the Blackberry Underground even gets a shout out in the song, very cool indeed….so check it all out..click the link BLKberry 2.0
Everyone knows that the BlackBerry is the most sought after device and its no secret that we have the Baddest Blackberry Site around and its also no secret how hot the Blkberry Song and SWINDOE are.
Swindoe’s Bio The most powerful force in the universe is the sound of one voice spoken with conviction and commitment. Swindoe is the breath of fresh air to a wheezing music industry, and rapping is just the tip of the ice berg. Swindoe is a two-time All-American college athlete, actor, businessperson, and Rap recording artist. As co-owner of the film production company Ujima Works, and record label B.L.K. Music Group, his success has taught him courage and struggle. His failures has taught him responsibility and work ethic.
Working with his older brother, music producer and Director Baba O, Swindoe has co-written and starred in several award winning independent films (PRODUCT, IN and OUT, EQUAL). Swindoe was the first Black American rapper to tour Mexico (2001) and has booked several sold out latin American venues, and is now focusing his efforts towards becoming a Hip Hop power house.
Swindoe’s music is reminiscent of Tupac in the way that the passion in his voice can motivate a generation, but his smooth delivery can put a teething baby to sleep. In 2007, Swindoe turned a vintage ice cream truck into a marketing and advertising beast. He wrapped it, put 22″ rims and a 50″ flat screen on the outside and rolls city to city blasting his music videos and selling his CD’s. Swindoe is affectionately known through out the dirty south as “Dat n#@@! from AZ in the Ice cream Truck!” Being original and innovative is what Swin does best. He invented a all new interface for Myspace called Sidewayz Myspace that scrolls “Sidewayz” (www.myspace.com/swindoe). Three movies, four albums and a international following, is only the beginning for this unsigned artist who stands to turn the music industry on it’s ear.
