Question What's on your 8100?

Please Login to Remove!

Being fairly new to BBs, I'm dying to know what programs everybody is using. Here's a list of programs I have installed:

- Google Maps
- Yahoo Messenger
- Google Talk (plus Psi on desktop for AIM transports)

That's it so far. See why I'm asking. There has to be some good software out there.

Maybe I should have asked to say where you downloaded the software.

You should have a link called "Home Page" under blackberry bookmarks.

You will see the link to free games from there.

Well, I clicked on homepage and it took me to google - which I set as my home page. Guess I'm out of luck. Tried the t-zones home page, but says my device is unsupported.

You can download Pocket Express from express.handmark.com

There is a monthly charge for all the channels, but some of the basics are free.

The only issue (which should get fixed soon i'm sure) is complete support for the trackball. Not a major issue, but small quirks when trying to select channels.

I wish there was a good RSS reader like Newsbreak (windows mobile only). I miss that app. Newsclip is pretty decent, but not as good as Newsbreak.

Didn't know that. How do you set it up? Guess I could just read the manual.

LOL! I read enough to get me by, but I'm the type to usually just jump in and learn it on my own. Problem is, my manual is at my office. I'm interested in finding out how the RSS reader works.

So Far:
Google maps

Yahoo IM

Considering the midpssh, but all the boxes I need to ssh into are behind vpn, so I guess I need a mobile cisco vpn first.
