We’ve tallied all the votes, and we’re now ready to announce the winners of BlackBerry Cool’s First Annual Best of WES: People’s Choice Contest. Reader participation is a huge deal here at BBCool HQ, so we were touched to see so many people voting for their favorite BlackBerry products and services. One of the most startling aspects of the contest was seeing just how close the voting was in many of the categories — you guys really like a lot of different things! To that end, we’re going to post the top three favorites in every category.
Thanks to everyone who voted!

Cortado (a division of ThinPrint) announced this week at WES the availability of their new corporate server. Along with “seamless integration into company IT environments”, Cortado is stressing their multi-use Present-to-Screen, which allows files of any format to be sent from a Blackberry to a notebook or PC screen. No special software is required, and users don’t have to convert their files to a different format.
The new version is available for download at www.cortado.com/ccs-blackberry. View the full press release after the jump.

Cortado has a bunch of solutions for consumers and enterprises. Right off the bat, they’ve got a free email offer for mobile phones, offering push email and a web interface. For enterprise customers, they have a server solution that allows you to copy files from the server to your BlackBerry and vice versa. This allows some neat applications such as saving emails to the server to share them, or picking any document on it and sending it via email right from your phone. They also have a printing app that will print off pretty much anything on your BlackBerry to a Bluetooth-compatible printer quickly and easily. There are way too many product to mention them all here, so be sure to check ‘em out at WES for some demos.

Can’t beat free, eh? Cortado has teamed up with Box.net to offer a free gigabyte of online storage that BIS users can access on their BlackBerry. All you have to do is register for an account on Box.net, grab the Cortado BlackBerry client, and you’re good to go. Of course, most of the stuff that you can stash on Google (like pictures and docs) are already mobile-ready, but what the hell, one more option never hurts. Head on over here for more info.
