Thomson Healthcare has announced that their charge capture software, called Clinical Xpert Navigator Charge Capture, is now available for BlackBerry. Like pMDsoft’s software, Clinical Xpert Navigator allows doctors to input diagnoses and charge codes into their BlackBerry and have that information submitted to a secure web portal almost instantaneously. The latest patient information is then available to doctors, nurses, and pharmacists from a smartphone, laptop, or PDA.

SpinVox is now offering a plugin for their transcription technology on BlackBerry. The service was rolled out through Rogers and other carriers last year, but was unavailable independently until now. You can pick up plans between £3.00 and £9.99 monthly, depending on how many conversions you need, which will work for voicemail, blog posts, personal memos, social networks and more. If you’re interested, you can check out the week-long trial over here. I wonder how it shapes up against SimulSays…?

We’ve got another solution for medical professionals looking for a way to get patient information while on the move. PatientKeeper is a multi-platform system that normalizes data for easy access on whatever you’re using. As usual, BlackBerry’s the last one to the show, Palm and Windows Mobile devices having already been support for awhile now. For more information on PatientKeeper, check this out.
Despite all the troubles we’ve been having the last couple of weeks, RIM’s stock is looking just rosy. You’d think that all the service issues would have a bit more of an impact, but the updated Q4 forecast seems to have counterbalanced investors’ opinions more than enough. Signs are showing that iPhone hype is dying down, leaving the BlackBerry in a rather nice position. Right now, RIMM sits at $107.95.
The popular business social network, LinkedIn, will be getting a mobile makeover in the next couple of weeks, making it accessible via BlackBerry. Some of the other big additions include additional language support and news that you can share with colleagues in your company. It wasn’t too long ago that RIM boss Jim Balsillie was giving enterprise social networks like LinkedIn and Plaxo a thumbs up, and clearly they recognize the power of the mobile world just as much.
GeoAge has updated their Field Adapted Survey Toolkit (FAST), adding BlackBerry compatibility as well as some new features and bug fixes, reports the Jacksonville Business Journal. The software eases data collection in the field, allowing users to push forms out to PDAs or laptops and receive any data entered almost immediately. The forms can have fields for text, pictures, audio, and movies, and once the data is entered it can be synchronized to a server running Microsoft SQL Server or to GeoAge’s servers. ZDnet has a video detailing some of the features of the software, which was until this update only available for Windows Mobile.
BlackBerry Cool kicks off its WES countdown with its first Exhibitor Spotlight, shining this week on BlackLine GPS and OtterBox. Of course we have all of the week’s regular news, including the BIS outage, legal hissy-fits, updates to the BlackBerry media player, and more. You can download directly from here, pick it up on iTunes, or our XML feed.
The fine folks at innov8 have given us a sneak peek at their latest and greatest cradles, this time for the BlackBerry Curve series. Last we heard, BerryBUDDY was getting tweaked for the BlackBerry 8130, leaving only the 8800-series to get the royal treatment. I’ve still got the Pearl BerryBUDDY sitting on my desk, dutifully charging and syncing the ol’ BlackBerry 8100 in style. Keep an eye out for the Curve cradle real soon!
A little birdie dropped us a line today, showing off a credible screenshot of the next BlackBerry media player. As you can see, there are plenty of equalization options to make your tunes sound just right no matter what kind of music you’re listening to. No word on what version of the BlackBerry OS we’ll be seeing this on, but it wouldn’t be out of line to expect this around WES. Maybe OS 4.5?
