Now that the BlackBerry 8130 is available toting OS 4.3, the accompanying Desktop Manager is up for grabs. Vodafone is hosting the download (which is interesting since they don’t even have the 8130 yet), but the forums are reporting some slow transfer speeds, likely due to the monster truck of traffic rolling over the servers. UPDATE: You can grab the new Desktop Manager right from RIM’s site now. New features include…
* Roxio(R) Media Manager for BlackBerry(R) smartphones: This tool now includes
-automatic launch of the Mobile Media Synchronization Wizard when a new device is connected

-support for playing voice notes and copying voice notes from your device
-a My RingTones folder that you can use to store ring tones
