Alright! I recently bought a blackberry 8800 and I am overall very impressed with this little device! I just have a few things to ask ya'll reguarding software / solutions.
First off, is there a web browswer that views the webpage in its entirity? I mean... I realize that it'd probably be hard with flash infested sites and youtube and stuff like that, but I mean, just view all of the pictures and get the layout you would get on a PC, only with zoom options and such? That would be WONDERFUL. But Im guessing for now, the iPhone has the monopoly on that feature.
Playlists!
Also, continuous play - Id like to use my blackberry as a media player now and then, and it'd be nice to be able to have playlists and to play more than one song at a time instead of having to select each and every song you want to hear each time. Any ideas? Suggestions? Any 3rd party Media Player? Winamp/iTunes styled ones?
Im now pretty satisfied with instant messeging with IM+ although I had to drop a buttload of money at Handango's online store. Blech...
This isnt that important, but does anyone know of any good SCUM or NES emulators for the BB? I saw the NES one featured on this site and... it works, but its too laggy to be playable. How bout any Doom or Heretic game ports? I realize this is a more business oriented device, so its a bit more slim picking when it comes to good games, its probably better that way.
GPS!
any time I try anything involving the GPS, it says 'signal weak: find better sky view' Do I have to be outdoors for this thing to work? I'm not that familiar with GPS devices... It'd be nice to have this feature working, but I dont know what needs to be tweaked, or if I live in a bad coverage area? (Central Utah) *shrugs*
Well, that otta do it for now! I'd really appreciate any of ya'll's suggestions or comments!
Thanks
