Empower is a software suite that’s still in its testing phase, but is showing a lot of promise. Right now, their beta e-mail viewer is available for free and seamlessly enables HTML in the default BlackBerry OS mail browser. Two other projects still in alpha from these guys are a folder-based file system as well as a spell check for anyone using OS 4.0.2 or higher. BlackBerrySmart has recently been released and looks a little more polished, but I’m not sure if I’d pay $25 for something that does roughly the same for free. The Empower HTML Mail Viewer’s a quick OTA download, so check it out.

Really nice and if this is how it is suppose to work on the native side then sign me up. Wow it started working once installed and no reboot needed. Very nice and if the charge I can live as long as BB doesn’t beat them to the finish line.
I agree that it is a wonderful method to view mails. Application is quite good and I agree that it downloads and gets activated without reboot. I am somehow not very happy with the way that the mail automatically switches to text mode and it takes some amount of time to download the mail in html format. As long as the further development is continuing and the upgrades are free, it will really help is “poor” users. Thanks guys keep up the good work!
