MattFancy Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I see the iPhone has its own thread and I think all of us BlackBerry owners need a thread too! I have the BlackBerry Tour from Verizon and its awesome! Easily the best phone I've ever had. I'm still a BlackBerry newbie and trying to learn new things. Some of the apps I have on my phone are: Score Mobile Google Maps UberTwitter AP News Yahoo! Fantasy Football '09 Slacker Radio Poynt Any apps you guys like? Let's hear it!

Corcaigh Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Only Google Maps. Otherwise I just use it to trawl through the e-mail I get when I'm somewhere away from a computer and want to use the time productively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsHokieFan Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Google maps is the best one I have my Yahoo fantasy Facebook (which has seemingly taken over my tour) ESPN The Washington Post I use Bolt as my browser, and BB messenger like crazy now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisenberg Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I love Verizon service and would love to stick with them and get a Blackberry. However, the fact that I can't watch my Slingbox on blackberry for Verizon is probably going to have me ending up with an iPhone - and just attempting to jailbreak it I guess.

TMK9973 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Pandora..... I LOVE Pandora on my tour. I have now canceled my XM and plug my Pandora into my car all the time. In fact, since I loaded Pandora - I hardly ever even use my MP3 player.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halter91 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I have the Nextel I8350. I love it, much better then my 7100. That thing was a dinosaur. I have yahoo fantasy football, facebook and I use BB messenger a lot. I was thinking of changing my Nextel for the Sprint Tour. I rarely use the Nextel 2 way service anymore. In case you don't know, Crackberry.com is a savior. I've learned a lot from that site. It saved me from getting a new BB a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattFancy Posted October 8, 2009 Author Share Posted October 8, 2009 anyone get the new BBM? I think its pretty sweet. You can send pics and files over bbm now. Plus the barcode thing is pretty sweet too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peeping Wizard Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Pandora.....I LOVE Pandora on my tour. I have now canceled my XM and plug my Pandora into my car all the time. In fact, since I loaded Pandora - I hardly ever even use my MP3 player.... Beat me to the punch. I have an iPod with over 2000 songs on it and it is my Storm with Pandora that I bring hiking with me.

Ghent Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 The only redskins talk radio that we get in Norfolk is the sports reporters at 4pm. I think there's a way to listen to 980 on your phone... How are you charged? By minutes or data? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the Curve also with all the above mention apps for it. But to view extremeskins on your BB, I believe the Opera Mini displays the webpage the best in regards to reading the threads. I use Bolt for all other websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattFancy Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 SiriusXM app is officialy out! Its an extra $2.99/month to be able to listen on your phone. Seems like its all the channels except for Howard. Not a big deal since I don't really listen to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
