As you may have heard, Vlingo has gone version 4.0 and they have included in this release what they call Vlingo Everywhere. The idea is that you can now use voice-to-text for any field that will accept keyboard input. This includes native applications as well as in the BlackBerry Browser.
With Vlingo Everywhere, you can interact with the following:
If you like Vlingo and think a friend would also enjoy it, Vlingo have opened up the ability to gift the application to a friend. Head over to Vlingo.com/giftus and purchase Vlingo 4.0 as a gift for $14.99. Your friend/loved one will receive a code which they can use to download Vlingo 4.0 on their BlackBerry.
Counting the main differences between all the BlackBerry models can be done on one hand. Screen resolution, processing speed, form factor, input, and network speed. Choosing which one is right for you is usually a pretty simple affair. If a device in the lineup doesn’t immediately call out to you as being an obvious fit, you’ve got to become more critical about the details of how you want your device to perform.
One of the bigger deciding factors is raw transmission speed. How fast can you download big emails? How quickly can you send out mission-critical data? How fast can I surf the web? It seems to be the most important factor, with the least amount of clear explanations and data to back up claims.
There is so much vague talk when it comes to the difference between 3G and 2G, while WiFi is unfairly absent in the speed breakdown.

Syncamatic is the latest sync solution that lets you sync your email, tasks, contacts and files OTA with your BlackBerry. Currently, the app is in beta but the company has been good enough to let a handfull of BlackBerry Cool readers sign up for a private beta testing. As a result, they will be giving this group a free copy of the full version plus a 1 year subscription.
You must be a PC user (Outlook) and Mac users will be invited later. Syncamatic will only be accepting 100 beta testers for now but you can also sign up and be notified when the app goes live.
Send an email to beta@syncamatic.com to register for the private beta group.
