The Hockey News is a great free app that gives you all your hockey needs in one place.

Electric Pocket recently launched a cool new application for BlackBerry that gives you the ability to personalize the alert tone for incoming emails. The app lets you set a different tone for each and every friend, family member or colleague in your Address Book, and there’s a large variety of tones available.
MailTones lets you set a tone for a specific user, or one for all incoming emails from a specific domain – making it easy to recognize incoming emails from work colleagues or customers. In fact, MailTones can help you distinguish high priority emails from your boss or wife from lower priority emails from college buddies, Facebook status updates, or email lists. You can develop your own system for screening incoming emails by setting your default mail tone to silent, or ignore, and using MailTones to set specific tones for higher priority people and subjects. You can then know whether or not to interrupt your meeting or conversation to check your email.
Elertify is a great new app that sits on your PC, and allows you to preview messages without the need to take out your BlackBerry and check.
Elertify will display a popup message on your PC when you receive incoming email, SMS and calls on your BlackBerry. You can even get audio alerts of who is texting, or emailing you.
Shell is a really decent theme from Elecite that includes color changing options from within the theme. Your theme can have black, red, white or blue background images. There are four dedicated application buttons in a dock, as well as 9 more customizable hidden icons.
Yes, the biggest improvement in the Storm 2 is the typing technology and the ease at which you can type on the touchscreen. Typing on the Storm 2 is a more reassuring feeling versus the 9530, and it is far easier than typing on other touchscreen devices such as the iPhone. Another huge improvement is the addition of WiFi.

This Windows 7 Ultimate theme is available for every device, except those running 5.0 software. Like we’ve said before, there are bugs in OS 5 themes and we’ve heard they will be corrected by Dev Con on November 9th, 2009.
Every other BlackBerry gets support on this theme, and it’s one that everyone can enjoy. The Windows 7 Ultimate theme features a fully functional Start Menu, which allows you to access your media center, music, settings, connection manager, sound profiles and application screen. Also, just like the real Start Menu, there is a shut down button as well.
When we wrote about ChangeWave’s most recent survey, we tried to make it very obvious that the survey was in no way indicative of any statistically accurate trends, and that it was to be taken with a grain of salt. In fact, the exact wording was:
As we approach the end of 2009, it was, to say the least, an interesting year for Research in Motion. The National Post recently wrote an article with some quotes from the co-CEO Jim Balsillie that show he and Mike Lazaridis are pleased with progress and very optimistic moving forward.

Founder of SmrtGuard Robert Kao and the Indosat team.
SmrtGuard and the Indonesian carrier Indosat, have announced the launch of the i-Guard service, a white label version of SmrtGuard. With this white labeled version of the service, users can wirelessly backup and restore personal data, as well as personally track and remotely wipe their smartphone in the event of theft or loss.
Personally, I would love to see North Americans getting a white labeled version of SmrtGuard as well. There are a ton of BlackBerry consumers that would benefit from this service, but aren’t in the know when it comes to purchasing applications. Relationships with carriers can go a long way to bringing these great apps to people who don’t know about them.
