RookieRocket is a new game by app developer Fabian Heuwieser that features some simple and fun gameplay at a more than reasonable price. The game has you piloting a rocket towards the heavens while you collect stars and avoid barriers. Some stars slow you down, some speed you up, and one of them reverses the controls entirely. The coolest part of this game has to be the Challenges where you can send your score via email to a friend who may or may not own the game, and have them try and beat your score. This sort of Challenge is going to be even cooler over BBM and we’re hoping that makes it into an update.
The BlackBerry Developer Days have been going on across North America and they’re a chance for developers to attend and learn more about the BlackBerry platform. I attended the event in Toronto as a developer and media weren’t allowed to attend. Therefore, I can’t write about my own experience. But what I can do is interview my friends in attendance and ask them what they thought. Sweet loophole, bro.
Fabian let us know that LaterDude Pro has been updated to version 3.0.2 with some general improvements to the app as well as new features. The app is very useful in that it allows you to set reminders for yourself to call, email or SMS someone. What makes the app even more handy, is that it ties in nicely with the call log, address book and other core BlackBerry functions.

DonTouch is Fabian‘s latest app and it protects your BlackBerry Storm or Storm2 from being touched by others. It uses the accelerometer and a car alarm sound to ward off anyone who might want to fidget with your expensive BlackBerry.
